WASHINGTON. An e-cast on how defense companies can navigate the Obama Administration's export compliance reforms will be held on Tuesday Nov. 12, 2013 at 11 AM EST. The event, titled "Managing ITAR/Export compliance reform for defense electronics suppliers," will be hosted by Military Embedded Systems magazine and OpenSystems Media.
The speakers are: Kay Georgi, Partner, Arent Fox, LLP; Karen Jones, Director, Trade Compliance, Exelis Electronic Systems Division; and Lawrence Fink, Vice President for Legal/Senior Counsel SAIC.
The e-cast will cover the new rules and changes to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and Export Administration Regulations (EAR) that move a very large set of controlled parts common to the State Department’s U.S. Munitions List (USML) Category VIII over to the Commerce Control List (CCL) to be authorized for export to 36 countries. The attorneys will discuss how these reforms will affect the military electronics suppliers, including new requirements and potential pitfalls.
Topics to be discussed include:
Classification in the framework of ECR.
New definition of "Specially Designed."
What is moving to the CCL and what is not and how to know the difference.
Potential pitfalls/common mistakes to avoid.
