the possession of or under the control of the DON whichmay not be exported lawfully without an approval, author-ization or license under references (b) or (c).

b. Does not introduce any additional controls on thedissemination of technical data by private enterprises orindividuals beyond those specified by export cent rol lawsand regulations or in contracts or other mutual agree.ments, including certillcations made pursuant to para-graph k. Accordingly, the mere fact that the DON maypossess such data dots not in itself provide a basis for

control of these data pursuant to this instruction.

c. Does not introduce any controls on the dissemina-tion of scientific, educatioml or other data that qualifyfor General License GTDA under export control law.Enclosures (1 I and (2) are pertinent extracts from thesekws; General License GTDA is defined in enclosure (1 ).

d. Does not alter the DON’s responsibility to protectproprietary data of a private party in which the DON orthe Department of Defense has “limited rights” or.’restricted rights” (see enclosure (3), Def~tions) or whichare authorized to be withheld from public disclosureunder the Freedpm of Information Act, reference (d).

e. Does not pertain to or affect the release of technicafdata by the DON to foreign governments, internationalorganizations or their respective representatives or con-tractors, pursuant to official agreements or formal arrange-ments with the U.S. Government or pursuant to U.S.Government-licensed transactions involving these entitiesor individuals.

technology with military or space application in thepossession of or under the control of the DON, if such

data may not be exported lawfully without an approval,authorization or license under reference (c). Regulationsissued under Executive Order or export control law (seeenclosures (1) and (2)) may, in certain cases, authorizethe export of technical data pursuant to a general un-restricted license or exemption. In these cases, the tech-nical data covered by license or exemption may not bewithheld.

b. Because public disclosure of techrdcal data subjectto this instruction is equivalent to providing uncontrolledforeign access, withholdirtg these data from public dis-closure, unle~ approved, authorized or licensed in ac-cordance with export control law, is necessary and in thenational interest. Unclasstled technical data that are notgoverned by this instruction, unless otherwise restricted,shall continue to be made available to the public as wellas to state and local governments.

c. Notwithstanding the authority provided in para-graph 4a, it is DON policy to provide technical datagoverned by this instruction to individuals and enterprisesthat are determined to be qualified U.S. contractors (seeenclosure (3), Definitions), when the data are requestedfor a legitimate business purpose for which the contractoris certified by the Defense Logistics Semites Center(DLSC), Battle Creek, Michigan. These certifications arevalid for a period of 5 years. When the data are requestedfor a purpose other than to permit the requester to bid orperform on a contract with the DON, or other U.S. Govern-ment agency, and its release for purposes other than direct

support of DON or other DOD activities may jeopardizean important U.S. technological or operational advantage,the data shall he withheld. NormalIv. this restrictirm will

apply only in the case of Naval Nuclear Propulsion lntor-mation (NNPl) (as defined irr reference (e)), polymerhydrophones/arrays related to submarine technology/design and to structural acoustic applications to submarinedesign. Commands desiring to have other classes of infor-

> mation included in this restriction against release may

request approval from CNO (Op-009P). Requests mustinclude a detaifed justificat ion and !o be consideredfavorably, the technical data covered should provide asignificant military capability and its development forcommercial purposes would jeopardize the milituryadvantage it provides. In the case of requcstsl’t)r largenumbers of documents or exte[is:ic compilations of d~t~which would tax a commands ability !Q reply i]! a timelyfashion, the command concerned shall develi)p WIIh tl;ereqi.iester a muluallv satisfaclo~ Jclii er} sthccluic, ;!

agreement cannot be reached, the matter shall be referred

to C’NO (Op-009P).

d. This instruction may not be used by DON commandsas authority to deny access to technical data to the Con-gress, or to any Federal, State or local governmental agencythat requires the data for regulatory or other officialgovernmental purposes. Any such dissemination will includea statelnent that the technical data are controlled by theDON in accordance with this instruction.

e. The authority provided here may not be used towithhold from public disclosure unclassified information

regarding DON operations. policies, activities or programs,including the costs and evaluations of performance andreliability of military and space equipment. When infor-mation of this kind contains technical data subject to thisinstruction, the technical data shall be excised prior toany public disclosure.

f. This instruction may not be used as a basis for therelease of “limited rights” or “restricted rights” data asdefined in enclosure(3), or that authorized to be withheldfrom public disclosure under the Freedom of Information

Act (FOIA), implemented in the DON by reference (d).

9. This instruction may not be used to provide pro-tection for technical data that should be classified in ac-cordance with reference (e).

h. This instruction provides authority to cite “5 U.S.C.Sectirsn 552(b)(3)” (FOIA) as the basis for denials underthe FOIA (see reference (d)) of technical data determirtedto be subject to the provisions of this instruction. Seeenclosure (4) for .s sample denial letter for requests madeunder the FOIA.

5. Procedures

a. Requests for technical data shall be processed inaccordance with chapter 12 of reference (e). FOIA re-quests for technical data subject to this irtstruction shallbe handled in accordance with reference (d). FOIA re-

quests for technical data determined to be subject to thewjthhcddirtg authority effected by this instruction shallhe denied llnder 5 U.SC.

b. Upon receipt of a request for technical data in thepossessionof or under the control of the DON, the con-trolling Navy or MaMc Corps command (see enclosure (3),Deflnitiona) shall determine whether the data are governedby this instruction. This determination sltrdlbe baaed onthe following:

(1) The command’s findings that the data wouldrequire an approval, authorization or license for exportunder references (b) or(c), and that the data may not beexported pursuant to a genera!, unrestricted license (seeenclosure (l)) or exemption (see enclosure (2)). Corn.mands may, in caseswhere such determinations cannotreadily be made locally, request guidance on spec~lc casesfrom CNO(Op4X19P).It is not intended, however, thatall requests be referred routinely to CNO for decision.

(2) The command’sjudgment that the technicaldata under consideration disclose critical technology withmilitary or space application. For purposes of makingthese determinations, the Militarily Critical TechnologiesL&t(MCTL), reference (f), shall be used as general guid.ante. The controlling DON command may request assist-ance in making these determinations from the Office ofthe Under Secretary of Defense for Research andEngineering (OUSDR&E) via CNO (Op-009P).

Q Rquests from foreign governments, organizationsor individwds for technicrd data shall be referred to CNO(op42).

d. The controlling command shall ensure that technicaldata determined to be governed by this instruction aremarked in accordance with chapter 12 of reference (e).AUtechnical documents determined to be subject to the

withholding provisions of this instruction will be markedwith an export warning notice as follows: “WARNING.This document contains technical data whose export isrestricted by the Arms Export Control Act (Title 22,U.S.C.Section 2751 et sq.) or Executive Order 12470.Violations of these export Iawsare subject to severecriminal penalties.”

● . A controlling command shall release technical datagoverned by this instruction only to a qualified U.S. con-tractor, as evidenced by the contractor’s submission of acompleted DD 2345, enclosure (6), with each request forunclassf:ed technical data subject to this instruction. Thecertification process has been established to assist thecontrolling Navy or Marine Corps command (see enclo.sure (3), Defmitiom) in determining as efficiently aspossible whether the requester should receive tt,e technical

OPNAVINST 5510,16129 July 1985

data requested. A certified requester is not autontaticaUyqualified to receive all DON export controlled information.The controlling command must ensure that the “qualiiledcontractor” is qtsalMedto receive the particular type ofinformation requested. Command release authority maybe exercised unless one of the following apply:

{1) The qualification of the US. contractor con.txmed has been revoked temporarily in accordance withparagraph 5i; or

(2) The requested data are judged to be unrelatedto the purpose for which the qualitled U.S. contractor iscertified. When release of technical data is denied in ac-cordanrx with this paragraph, the controlling commandshall inform the U.S. contractor of the reasons for thedenial, i.e., the requested data are deemed to be unrelatedto the U.S. contractor’s certification. The letter of denial.enclosure (7), is a sample of such a letter and shall advisethe U.S. contractor that application can be made to theDLSCfor a new certification and request additional in-formation which would describe intended use of therequested data; or

(3) The technictd data are being requested for apurpose other than to permit the requester to bid orperform on a contract with the DON or other U.S. Govern-ment agency. In these cases, the controlling commandshal!withhold the data if it has been determined by theoriginating command (see enclosure (3), Definitions) thatthe significanceof the data for military purposes precludesits release for purposes other than direct support of DONapproved activities, because release could jeopardue animportant technical or operational military advantage ofthe United States (normally applicable only to NNPI,polymer hydrophores/arrays and structural acoustic appli-cations to submarine design); or

(4) There is reason to question the validity of theU.S. contractor’s qualification, in which case the Chiefof Naval Operations (Op409P) is to be notified immedi-ately. Reasons for casting doubt upon the valitilty of aU.S. contractor’s qualifkation could be, but are not limitedto, a certifkation date of more than 5 years from date ofissue;an apparent alteration of the submitted DD 2345;the use of type faces, numbers, titles or other detail whichappear different from those previously observed on otherDD 2345; or the use crfforeign addresses or fms asproposed recipients of controlled data.

f. Any release to qualified U.S. contractors of technicaldata controlled by this instruction shall be accompanied by

Page 4: SECNAVINST 5510

OPNAVINST 5510.16129 July 1965

a notice to the recipient as set forth in enclosure (8). Docu-ments being mailed to a qualifkd U.S. contractor shall besent to the address ahown for the data recipient in block 3of the DD 234S regardlessof any rquest for mailing to adifferent address. Commands shall deny requests fromqtiled US. contractors that specify the data be sent toan address outside the United States.

g. Commands will deny fl non-FOIA requests for un-classifkd technical data covered by this instruction whichare not accompanied by a completed DD Form 234S.Commands may confm, when necessary, a rquester’squalifkation as a U.S. contractor by:

(1)Contacting the DISC at Autovon 369-9288/89or FTS 372-9288/89 or commercial (616) 9624511, ex.tension 9288, to ensure that the requester is listed by theDISC as a qualiiled U.S. contractor; and

[2) Reviewing the listing published by CNO (Op009P) of revocations and suspensionaof U.S, contractors’qualifkations to ensure that requesters have not beendebarred from receitig such data.

h. If a request is denied because of use of an invalidDD 2345, the matter shall be reported immediately toCNO (Op-009P). Reports will contain, as a minimum, thedate of the request, the name and affiliation of the re-quester, a copy of the DD 2345 and an explanation as towhy the form was deemed to be invalid.

i. Commands becoming aware of credible and sufficientinformation that a qualMed U.S. contractor has (1) vio-lated U.S. export control law, (2) violated its certification,(3) made an application for @ratificationin bad faith or(4) made an omission or misstatement of material fact willreport this information to CNO (Op4109P).CNO (Op-009P) will, in coordimtion with the General Counsel of theNavy and the Judge Advocate General of the Navy, revoketemporarily the U.S. contractor’s quaMcation. Revocationshaving the potential for compromising a U.S. Governmentinvestigation may be delayed. Immediately upon a con-tractor’s revocation, CNO (Op4109P) shall notify thecontractor, the OUSDR&Eand all DON commands ondistribution for receipt of contractor qualifhtion revoca-tions or suspensions. The contractor concerned shall begiven an opportunity to respond in writing to the informa-tion upon which the temporary revocation is based beforebeing disqualified. Any U.S. contractor whose qualifka-tion has been revoked temporarily maybe reinstated byCNO (Op4109P) upon presentation of sufficient informa-

tion showing that the basis for the revomtion was in error

or has been remedied.—

j. When the basisfor a contractor’s temporary revoca-tion cannot be removed within 20 working days, CNO(Op4XNP) shall recommend to the OUSDIhkE that thecontractor be disqualified.

k. Charges forcopying,certifyingandseachhgrecords provided to requesters shall be kvkd in accord-ance with charges authorized by the NAVCOMPTMutual,paragraph 035887. Norrnslly, only one copy of the samerecord or document will be provided to each rquester.

f!.Technical documentsmarkedwithdistributionlimitation statements (see Exhibit 12B of reference(e))which require originator approval prior to release may not

be rekased without such approval. In these cases, a re.quester may be advised that his request requtres originatorapproval and that the approval has been requested. In thesecases controlling commands will rquest the approvat ofthe originating command prior to release of the requestedinformation. Originating commands shall approve releaseof their controlled information if assuredby the con-trolling command that the rquester is a quallfkd U.S.contractor, urdess the request should be denkd for thereasons permitted in paragraph Se. Unclassifiedtechnicaldata pertaining to naval nuclear propulsion matters se. -

quires CNO (OP40N) approval prior to its release by anycontrolling command. Unclas@led technical data per.taining to submarine matters or operations requires CNO(OP-02) approval prior to its release by any controllingcommand. Requests for technical data requiring rekwapproval by other DOD or Government agenciesshall bereferred to those agencies.

m. Unless advised to the contmry, qualified U.S. con.tractors who receive technical data governed by this in-struction may disseminate the data for purpms consistentwith their cetiifiitions without the prior permksion of

the controlling Navy umrnand. QuaMed U.S. contractors

n. A qualified U.S. contractor desiring to disseminatetechnical data subject to this instruction in a manner notpermitted expressly by the terms of this instruction shallseek authority to do so from the controlling DON com-mand. A command receivingsuch request from a qualifiedU.S. contractor ahali refer the request to the command oroffice which originated the information. If the originatorcannot be ascertained, the request shali be referred toCNO (Op@9P). Unauthorized redissemination of technicaldata subject to this instruction by a qualifled U.S. con-tractor can take place by the publishing of articles in openliterature, in advertising or in promotional materials, inconducting educational and training courses, and by

~ similar means where persons or entities not authorized bythis instruct ion to have access to the technical data canobtain access.

o. Any requester denied technicai data or any qualifiedU.S. contractor denied permission to redisseminate tech-nical data pursuant to this instruction shall be provided awritten statement of reasons for that action within 15 daysof such denial and advised of the right to make a writtenappeal to CNO (Op4109P).Appeals of denials made underFOIA shali be handled in accordance with proceduresestablished by reference (d).
