Yesterday the OMB’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) announced that the DOC’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) withdrew their interim final rule on “Securing the Information and Communications Technology and Services Supply Chain: Unmanned Aircraft Systems”. This IFR was sent to OIRA on October 3rd, 2025. The advanced notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM) was published on January 3rd, 2025.
I cannot find anything on the BIS website that would explain their reason
for withdrawing this rulemaking. I did find, however, an FCC public
notice that might impact the rulemaking process. That notice “announces the
addition of uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS) and UAS critical components
produced in foreign countries to the Covered List”. This listing could inform
the BIS enforcement efforts.
