Ed. Note: if you’re new to TURBOFAC, please take note that the text string filtration function generally shouldn’t be used for terms such as “ordinarily resident,” “causing” or “new debt”. For research on the meaning of words and phrases such as those, i.e. terms central to the key legal issues in sanctions law that appear on a cross-programmatic basis, you’re typically better off locating and checking the appropriate box in the “Key Legal Issues” search category, which will limit the results to those that have been manually assessed as being relevant for the interpretation of the terms at issue.
Try typing your search term (“ordinarily resident,” “new debt,” or something else) in the “Find a Search Filter” box at the top of the page, and the corresponding “Key Legal Issues” check box will pop up instantly, if one exists. Once you check the box (e.g. “new debt,” with ~55 results), you can always use the text string filtration function to further refine your search (e.g. by typing “invoice” and narrowing the ~55 results to ~10).
Note in addition that the same applies to text string searches such as “14071” (if you’re looking for items related to EO 14071). By typing “14071” in the “Find a Search Filter” field up top, you will be able to instantly narrow the results down to items manually assessed as relating to EO 14071. Ditto terms such as “515.204” or “Iran General License G” (try the “Discrete Legal Provision” search category).

1) The “REACH Consortium [] managed by a U.S. law firm” for which “accreditation (as a registered company) [allows] export [of] styrene to Europe” was the Styrene Reach Consortium, the management of which was transferred from McKenna Long & Aldridge LLP to Jones Day in 2014 (see https://jonesdayreach.com/wp-content/uploads/Relevant-information-for-purchasing-LoA-Styrene-Oct-2024-Copy.pdf, p. 1). More information about the Styrene Reach Consortium, can be found at that link. As is evident, the law firm administers a program where applicant fill out a “a letter of access” application form, and once a letter of access is granted, the applicant is granted access to certain data. Beyond the data, the Letter of Access appears to enable the holder to participate in a “joint submission” to the EU regulatory agencies that allow for the export of the materials at issue (see p. 10 of the linked PDF).
