Background
On April 24, 1996, President Clinton signed into law the
Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Public Law 104-
132, 110 Stat. 1214-1319 (the ``Act''). Section 321 of the Act makes it
a criminal offense for United States persons, except as provided in
regulations issued by the Secretary of the Treasury in consultation
with the Secretary of State, to engage in financial transactions with
the governments of countries designated under section 6(j) of the
Export Administration Act of 1979, 50 U.S.C. App. 2405, as supporting
international terrorism. United States persons who engage in such
transactions are subject to criminal penalties under title 18, United
States Code. In implementation of section 321, the Treasury Department
is issuing the Terrorism List Governments Sanctions Regulations (the
``Regulations'').
The countries currently designated under section 6(j) of the Export
Administration Act are Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Libya, North Korea, Sudan, and
Syria. The provisions of existing regulations governing Cuba, Iran,
Iraq, Libya and North Korea are continued in effect with the added
authority of section 321. A separate rule amending 31 CFR chapter V
with respect to these countries is being published simultaneously in
the Federal Register. Accordingly, Sec. 596.503 of the Regulations
provides that financial transactions of United States persons with the
governments of these five countries are governed by the separate parts
in 31 CFR chapter V imposing economic sanctions on these countries. No
substantive regulatory change is made to those parts.
Regarding the governments of countries designated under section
6(j) (``Terrorism List Governments'') that were not already subject to
economic sanctions administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control
(at present, the governments of Sudan and Syria), the Regulations
prohibit United States persons from receiving unlicensed donations and
from engaging in financial transactions with respect to which the
United States person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the
financial transaction poses a risk of furthering terrorist acts in the
United States.
Transactions otherwise prohibited under this part but found to be
consistent with U.S. policy are authorized by general licenses
contained in subpart E or may be authorized by a specific license
issued pursuant to the procedures described in Sec. 596.801 of subpart
H. Criminal penalties for violations of the Regulations are described
in subpart G.
The Regulations are subject to possible modification in light of
the law enforcement and administrative experience in their
implementation.
Since the Regulations involve a foreign affairs function, the
provisions of Executive Order 12866 and the Administrative Procedure
Act (5 U.S.C. 553), requiring notice of proposed rulemaking,
opportunity for public participation, and delay in effective date, are
inapplicable. Because no notice of proposed rulemaking is required for
this rule, the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612) does not
apply.
Paperwork Reduction Act
The Regulations are being issued without prior notice and public
procedure pursuant to the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553).
Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3507), the
collections of information contained in the Regulations have been
submitted to and approved by the Office of Management and Budget
(``OMB'') pending public comment, and have been assigned control number
1505-0161. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, a collection of information unless the
collection of information displays a valid control number.
The collections of information in the Regulations are contained in
subpart F, and Sec. 596.801. This information is required by the Office
of Foreign Assets Control for licensing, compliance, and enforcement
purposes. This information will be used to determine the eligibility of
applicants for the benefits provided through specific licenses, to
determine whether persons subject to the Regulations are in compliance
with applicable requirements, and to determine whether and to what
extent enforcement action is appropriate. The likely respondents and
record keepers are individuals and business organizations.
No assurances of confidentiality are given to persons who furnish
information to OFAC unless specifically indicated in advance. It is the
policy of OFAC to protect the confidentiality of information in
appropriate cases pursuant to the exemptions from disclosure provided
under the Freedom
[[Page 43463]]
of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a).
Estimated total annual reporting and/or recordkeeping burden: 100
hours.
The estimated annual burden per respondent/record keeper varies
from 30 minutes to 1 hour and 30 minutes, depending on individual
circumstances, with an estimated average of 1 hour.
Estimated number of respondents and/or record keepers: 100.
Estimated annual frequency of responses: 100.
Comments are invited on: (a) whether these collections of
information are necessary for the proper performance of the functions
of the agency, including whether the information has practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the
collections of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents,
including through the use of automated collection techniques or other
forms of information technology.
Comments concerning the above information, the accuracy of
estimated average annual burden, and suggestions for reducing this
burden should be directed to OMB, Paperwork Reduction Project, control
number 1505-0161, Washington, DC 20503, with a copy to the Office of
Foreign Assets Control, Department of the Treasury, 1500 Pennsylvania
Ave., NW--Annex, Washington, DC 20220. Any such comments should be
submitted not later than October 22, 1996. Comments on aspects of the
Regulations other than those involving collections of information
should not be sent to OMB.

Sec. 596.801 Licensing.

under appropriate terms and conditions certain types of transactions
which are subject to the prohibitions contained in this part. All such
licenses in effect on the date of publication are set forth in subpart
E of this part. It is the policy of the Office of Foreign Assets
Control not to grant applications for specific licenses authorizing
transactions to which the provisions of an outstanding general license
are applicable. Persons availing themselves of certain general licenses
may be required to file reports and statements in accordance with the
instructions specified in those licenses. Failure to file such reports
or statements will nullify the authorization to such person provided by
the general license.
(b) Specific licenses--(1) General course of procedure.
Transactions subject to the prohibitions contained in this part which
are not authorized by general license may be effected only under
specific licenses.
(2) Applications for specific licenses. Applications for specific
licenses to engage in any transactions prohibited by or pursuant to
this part may be filed by letter with the Office of Foreign Assets
Control. Any person having an interest in a transaction or proposed
transaction may file an application for a license authorizing such
transaction, but the applicant for a specific license is required to
make full disclosure of all parties in interest to the transaction so
that a decision on the application may be made with full knowledge of
all relevant facts and so that the identity and location of the persons
who know about the transaction may be easily ascertained in the event
of inquiry.
(3) Information to be supplied. The applicant must supply all
information specified by relevant instructions and/or forms, and must
fully disclose the names of all the parties who are concerned with or
interested in the proposed transaction. If the application is filed by
an agent, the agent must disclose the name of his principal(s). Such
documents as may be relevant shall be attached to each application as a
part of such application except that documents previously filed with
the Office of Foreign Assets Control may, where appropriate, be
incorporated by reference. Applicants may be required to furnish such
further information as is deemed necessary to a proper determination by
the Office of Foreign Assets Control. Any applicant or other party in
interest desiring to present additional information or discuss or argue
the application may do so at any time before or after decision.
Arrangements for oral presentation should be made with the Office of
Foreign Assets Control.
(4) Effect of denial. The denial of a license does not preclude the
reopening of an application or the filing of a further application. The
applicant or any other party in interest may at any time request
explanation of the reasons for a denial by correspondence or personal
interview.
[[Page 43466]]
(5) Reports under specific licenses. As a condition for the
issuance of any license, the licensee may be required to file reports
with respect to the transaction covered by the license, in such form
and at such times and places as may be prescribed in the license or
otherwise.
(6) Issuance of license. Licenses will be issued by the Office of
Foreign Assets Control acting on behalf of the Secretary of the
Treasury, or licenses may be issued by the Secretary of the Treasury
acting directly or through any specifically designated person, agency,
or instrumentality.
(c) Address. License applications, reports, and inquiries should be
addressed to the appropriate section or individual within the Office of
Foreign Assets Control, or to the Director, at the following address:

Pennsylvania Avenue, NW--Annex, Washington, DC 20220.
Sec. 596.802 Decisions.
The Office of Foreign Assets Control will advise each applicant of
the decision respecting filed applications. The decision of the Office
of Foreign Assets Control acting on behalf of the Secretary of the
Treasury with respect to an application shall constitute final agency
action.
Sec. 596.803 Amendment, modification, or revocation.
The provisions of this part and any rulings, licenses, whether
general or specific, authorizations, instructions, orders, or forms
issued hereunder may be amended, modified, or revoked at any time.
Sec. 596.804 Rulemaking.
(a) All rules and other public documents are issued by the
Secretary of the Treasury upon recommendation of the Director of the
Office of Foreign Assets Control. In general, rulemaking by the Office
of Foreign Assets Control involves foreign affairs functions of the
United States, and for that reason is exempt from the requirements
under the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) for notice of
proposed rulemaking, opportunity for public comment, and delay in
effective date.
(b) Any interested person may petition the Director of the Office
of Foreign Assets Control in writing for the issuance, amendment, or
repeal of any rule.
