PART 713—ACTIVITIES INVOLVING SCHEDULE 2 CHEMICALS Authority: 22 U.S.C. 6701 et seq. et seq. et seq. Source: 71 FR 24929, Apr. 27, 2006, unless otherwise noted. § 713.1 Prohibition on exports and imports of Schedule 2 chemicals to and from States not Party to the CWC. (a) You may not export any Schedule 2 chemical (see supplement no. 1 to this part) to any destination or import any Schedule 2 chemical from any destination other than a State Party to the Convention. See supplement no. 1 to part 710 of the CWCR for a list of States that are party to the Convention. Note to § 713.1( a See § 742.18 of the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) (15 CFR part 742) for prohibitions that apply to exports of Schedule 2 chemicals to States not Party to the CWC. (b) Paragraph (a) of this section does not apply to: (1) The export or import of a Schedule 2 chemical to or from a State not Party to the CWC by a department, agency, or other entity of the United States, or by any person, including a member of the Armed Forces of the United States, who is authorized by law, or by an appropriate officer of the United States to transfer or receive the Schedule 2 chemical; (2) Mixtures containing Schedule 2A chemicals, if the concentration of each Schedule 2A chemical in the mixture is 1% or less by weight (note, however, that such mixtures may be subject to the regulatory requirements of other federal agencies); (3) Mixtures containing Schedule 2B chemicals if the concentration of each Schedule 2B chemical in the mixture is 10% or less by weight (note, however, that such mixtures may be subject to the regulatory requirements of other federal agencies); or (4) Products identified as consumer goods packaged for retail sale for personal use or packaged for individual use. § 713.2 Annual declaration requirements for plant sites that produce, process or consume Schedule 2 chemicals in excess of specified thresholds. (a) Declaration of production, processing or consumption of Schedule 2 chemicals for purposes not prohibited by the CWC Quantities of production, processing or consumption that trigger declaration requirements. (i) Annual declaration on past activities. ( 1 ( 2 ( 3 (B) In order to trigger a declaration requirement for a past activity (i.e., production, processing or consumption) involving a Schedule 2 chemical, a plant on your plant site must have exceeded the applicable declaration threshold for that particular activity during one or more of the previous three calendar years. For example, if a plant on your plant site produced 800 kilograms of thiodiglycol and consumed 300 kilograms of the same Schedule 2 chemical, during the previous calendar year, you would not have a declaration requirement based on these activities, because neither activity at your plant would have exceeded the declaration threshold of 1 metric ton for that Schedule 2 chemical. However, a declaration requirement would apply if an activity involving a Schedule 2 chemical at the plant exceeded the declaration threshold in an earlier year (i.e., during the course of any other calendar year within the past three calendar years), as indicated in the example provided in the note to this paragraph. Note to § 713.2( a i To determine whether or not you have an annual declaration on past activities requirement for Schedule 2 chemicals, you must determine whether you produced, processed or consumed a Schedule 2 chemical above the applicable threshold at one or more plants on your plant site in any one of the three previous calendar years. For example, for the 2004 annual declaration on past activities period, if you determine that one plant on your plant site produced greater than 1 kilogram of the chemical BZ in calendar year 2002, and no plants on your plant site produced, processed or consumed any Schedule 2 chemical above the applicable threshold in calendar years 2003 or 2004, you still have a declaration requirement under this paragraph for the previous calendar year (2004). However, you must only declare on Form 2-3 (question 2-3.1), production data for calendar year 2004. You would declare “0” production because you did not produce BZ above the applicable threshold in calendar year 2004. Since the plant site did not engage in any other declarable activity (i.e., consumption, processing) in the 2002-2004 declaration period, you would leave blank questions 2-3.2 and 2-3.3 on Form 2-3. Note that declaring a “0” production quantity for 2004, as opposed to leaving the question blank, permits BIS to distinguish the activity that triggered the declaration requirement from activities that were not declarable during that period. (ii) Annual declaration on anticipated activities. 1 3 Note to § 713.2( a ii A null “0” declaration is not required if you do not plan to produce, process or consume a Schedule 2 chemical in the next calendar year. (2) Schedule 2 chemical production. (ii) For the purpose of determining if a Schedule 2 chemical is subject to declaration, you must declare an intermediate Schedule 2 chemical, but not a transient intermediate Schedule 2 chemical. (3) Mixtures containing a Schedule 2 chemical Mixtures that must be counted. (A) Schedule 2A chemicals in mixtures. (B) Schedule 2B chemicals in mixtures. (ii) How to count the quantity of each Schedule 2 chemical in a mixture. (iii) Determining declaration requirements for production, processing and consumption. 1 3 Note 1 to § 713.2( a If, during the past calendar year, a plant on your plant site produced, processed, or consumed a mixture containing 130 kilograms of PFIB with a concentration of 12%, the total amount of PFIB produced, processed, or consumed at that plant for CWCR purposes would be 130 kilograms, which exceeds the declaration threshold of 100 kilograms for that Schedule 2A chemical. Consequently, you must declare 130 kilograms of production, processing, or consumption of PFIB at that plant site during the past calendar year. Note 2 to § 713.2( a If, during the past calendar year, a plant on your plant site produced, processed, or consumed a mixture containing 130 kilograms of PFIB with a concentration of 8%, the total amount of PFIB produced, processed, or consumed at that plant for CWCR purposes would be 0 kilograms, which would not trigger a declaration requirement. This outcome is based on the fact that the concentration of PFIB in the mixture is less than 10% and, for CWCR purposes would not have to be “counted.” Note 3 to § 713.2( a If, during the past calendar year, a plant on your plant site produced a mixture containing 300 kilograms of thiodiglycol with a concentration of 32% and also produced 800 kilograms of pure thiodiglycol, the total amount of thiodiglycol produced at that plant for CWCR purposes would be 1,100 kilograms, which exceeds the declaration threshold of 1 metric ton for that Schedule 2B chemical. Consequently, you must declare production of thiodiglycol at that plant site during the past calendar year. Note 4 to § 713.2( a If, during the past calendar year, a plant on your plant site processed a mixture containing 300 kilograms of thiodiglycol with a concentration of 25% and also processed 800 kilograms of pure thiodiglycol, the total amount of thiodiglycol processed at that plant for CWCR purposes would be 800 kilograms and would not trigger a declaration requirement. This outcome is based on the fact that the concentration of thiodiglycol in the mixture is less than 30% and, therefore, would not have to be “counted” and added to the 800 kilograms of pure thiodiglycol processed at that plant during the past calendar year. (b) Types of declaration forms to be used Annual declaration on past activities. 1 3 (2) Annual declaration on anticipated activities. 1 3 (c) Quantities to be declared Production, processing and consumption of a Schedule 2 chemical above the declaration threshold Annual declaration on past activities. (ii) Annual declaration on anticipated activities. 1 3 (2) Rounding. (d) “Declared” Schedule 2 plant site. (e) Declared Schedule 2 plant sites subject to initial and routine inspections. 1 3 [71 FR 24929, Apr. 27, 2006, as amended at 88 FR 42618, July 3, 2023] § 713.3 Annual declaration and reporting requirements for exports and imports of Schedule 2 chemicals. (a) Declarations and reports of exports and imports of Schedule 2 chemicals Declarations. (2) Reports. (i) A declared plant site that exported or imported a Schedule 2 chemical that was different than the Schedule 2 chemical produced, processed or consumed at one or more plants at the plant site above the applicable declaration threshold; (ii) An undeclared plant site; (iii) A trading company; or (iv) Any other person subject to the CWCR. Note to § 713.3( a a i A declared Schedule 2 plant site may need to declare exports or imports of Schedule 2 chemicals that it produced, processed or consumed above the applicable threshold and also report exports or imports of different Schedule 2 chemicals that it did not produce, process or consume above the applicable threshold quantities. The report may be submitted to BIS either with or separately from the annual declaration on past activities (see § 713.3(d) of the CWCR). Note to § 713.3( a The U.S. Government will not submit to the OPCW company-specific information relating to the export or import of Schedule 2 chemicals contained in reports. The U.S. Government will add all export and import information contained in reports to export and import information contained in declarations to establish the U.S. national aggregate declaration on exports and imports. Note to § 713.3( a Declared and undeclared plant sites must count, for declaration or reporting purposes, all exports from and imports to the entire (b) Quantities of exports or imports that trigger a declaration or reporting requirement. (i) 1 kilogram of chemical BZ: 3-Quinuclidinyl benzilate (See Schedule 2, paragraph A.3 included in supplement no. 1 to this part); (ii) 100 kilograms of chemical PFIB: 1,1,3,3,3-Pentafluoro-2(trifluoromethyl)-1-propene or 100 kilograms of Amiton: O,O Diethyl S-[2(diethylamino)ethyl] phosphorothiolate and (iii) 1 metric ton of any chemical listed in Schedule 2, Part B (see supplement no.1 to this part). (2) Mixtures containing a Schedule 2 chemical Mixtures that must be counted. (A) Schedule 2A chemicals in mixtures. (B) Schedule 2B chemicals in mixtures. (ii) How to count the quantity of each Schedule 2 chemical in a mixture. (iii) Mixture concentration thresholds apply only for declaration and reporting purposes. Note 1 to § 713.3( b If, during the past calendar year, your plant site exported or imported a mixture containing 3 kilograms of Amiton with a concentration of 12%, the total amount of Amiton exported or imported for CWCR purposes is 3 kilograms, which exceeds the declaration threshold of 1 kilogram for that Schedule 2A chemical. Consequently, you must declare 3 kilograms of export or import at that plant site during the past calendar year. Note 2 to § 713.2( b If, during the past calendar year, your plant site exported or imported a mixture containing 3 kilograms of Amiton with a concentration of 8%, the total amount of Amiton exported or imported for CWCR purposes would be 0 kilograms and would not trigger a declaration requirement. This outcome is based on the fact that the concentration of Amiton in the mixture is less than 10% and, therefore, would not have to be “counted.” (c) Declaration and reporting requirements Annual declaration on past activities. (2) Annual report on exports and imports. (d) Types of declaration and reporting forms to be used Annual declaration on past activities. (2) Annual report on exports and imports. (A) Submitting, with (B) Submitting, separately from (ii) If you are an undeclared plant site, trading company or any other person subject to the CWCR, you must complete the Certification Form, Form 2-1, and Form 2-3B for each Schedule 2 chemical you exported or imported above the applicable threshold. Attach Form A, as appropriate; Form B is optional. (e) Quantities to be declared Calculations. (2) Rounding.
