Unmarked Eng Data 2022.pdf

This is a Memorandum for Vendors/Contractors issued by the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC) at Hill Air Force Base, Utah, dated 2 February 2022, addressing the handling of unmarked engineering data.

The memorandum notifies contractors that any drawings or engineering data in a dataset that lack distribution statements and export control notices should be treated as bearing Distribution D classification, restricting distribution to DoD and US DoD contractors only as of the memorandum date. The document emphasizes that the dataset contains technical data subject to export control under the Arms Export Control Act (ITAR) and the Export Administration Regulation (EAR), with violations subject to criminal penalties including imprisonment up to 2-10 years and fines up to $250,000. Contractors are required to maintain qualified status and comply with export control restrictions, include a copy of the notice with any reproduction of the data provided to other qualified contractors, and direct external requests to AFLCMC/LZPEF at Hill AFB. The attachment provides detailed instructions for controlling export-controlled technical data. Inquiries should be directed to Vickie Inlow at vickie.inlow@us.af.mil or 801-777-6228.
