Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request, 73062-73063 [E5-7012]

Download as PDF 73062 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 235 / Thursday, December 8, 2005 / Notices comply with FMVSS Nos. 214 and 216. Based on the similarity of the 1997 and 1998 models to the 1999 model year vehicles that are the subject of this petition, the agency has no reason to conclude that the 1999 models are not similarly capable of being readily altered to comply. FNA was correct in observing that the agency, through oversight, had neglected to include in the notice of petition any discussion regarding the vehicles’ compliance with FMVSS No. 216. The notice should have stated that the petition identified the installation of braces bonded at the rear roof corners as needed to conform the vehicles to that standard. With regard to the petitioner’s failure to provide a VIN for the petitioned vehicle, the agency notes that although it would prefer petitioners to supply information of this kind, there is no regulatory requirement for them to do so. Based on these considerations, the agency decided to grant the petition. As NHTSA concluded in its analysis of the eligibility of the similar 1997 and 1998 Ferrari GT and GTA passenger cars, the modifications proposed for the 1999 Ferrari GT and GTA passenger cars indicate that the vehicles are capable of being readily altered. Vehicle Eligibility Number for Subject Vehicles The importer of a vehicle admissible under any final decision must indicate on the form HS–7 accompanying entry the appropriate vehicle eligibility number indicating that the vehicle is eligible for entry. VSP–445 is the vehicle eligibility number assigned to vehicles admissible under this notice of final decision. Final Decision Accordingly, on the basis of the foregoing, NHTSA decided that 1999 Ferrari 456GT and GTA passenger cars that were not originally manufactured to comply with all applicable FMVSS are substantially similar to 1999 Ferrari 456GT and GTA passenger cars originally manufactured for importation into and sale in the United States and certified under 49 U.S.C. 30115, and are capable of being readily altered to conform to all applicable FMVSS. Authority: 49 U.S.C. 30141(a)(1)(A) and (b)(1); 49 CFR 593.8; delegations of authority at 49 CFR 1.50 and 501.8. Claude H. Harris, Director, Office of Vehicle Safety Compliance. [FR Doc.

U.S. Department of the Treasury AntiTerrorist Financing Guidelines: Voluntary Best Practices for U.S.-Based Charities 1 I. Introduction Upon issuance of Executive Order 13224, President George W. Bush directed the U.S. Department of the Treasury (‘‘Treasury’’) to work with other elements of the Federal government and the international community to develop a comprehensive and sustained campaign against the sources and conduits of terrorist financing. Investigations have revealed terrorist abuse of charitable organizations, both in the United States and worldwide, often through the diversion of donations intended for 1 This document is an amended version of the Anti-Terrorist Financing Guidelines: Voluntary Best Practices for U.S.-Based Charities released by the U.S. Department of the Treasury in November 2002. PO 00000 Frm 00087 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 73063 humanitarian purposes but funneled instead to terrorists, their support networks, and their operations. This abuse threatens to undermine donor confidence and jeopardizes the integrity of the charitable sector, whose services are indispensable to both national and world communities. In response to this threat, Treasury first released the Anti-Terrorist Financing Guidelines: Voluntary Best Practices for U.S.-Based Charities (‘‘Guidelines’’) in November 2002. In November 2005, Treasury revised these Guidelines, based on extensive review and comment by public and private sector interested parties, to improve the utility of the Guidelines in protecting the sector from abuse by terrorists and their support networks. The Guidelines further enhance awareness in the donor and charitable communities of the kinds of practices that charities may adopt to reduce the risk of terrorist financing. These Guidelines, as presented by Treasury, are voluntary and do not supersede or modify current or future legal requirements applicable to all U.S. persons, including non-profit institutions. Rather, the Guidelines are intended to assist charities in developing a risk-based approach to guard against the threat of diversion of charitable funds for use by terrorists and their support networks. Given the riskbased nature of these Guidelines, we recognize that certain aspects will not be applicable to every charity, charitable activity, or circumstance. Moreover, we acknowledge that certain exigent circumstances (such as catastrophic disasters) may make application of the Guidelines difficult. In such cases, charities should maintain a risk-based approach that includes all prudent and reasonable measures that are feasible under the circumstances. Charities and donors are encouraged to consult these Guidelines when considering protective measures to prevent infiltration or abuse by terrorists.2 2 These guidelines are designed to assist charities that attempt in good faith to protect themselves from terrorist abuse and are not intended to address the problem of organizations that use the cover of charitable work, whether real or perceived, to provide support to terrorist groups or fronts operating on behalf of terrorist groups. Adherence to these Guidelines does not excuse any person (individual or entity) from compliance with any local, state, or federal law or regulation, nor does it release any person from or constitute a legal defense against any civil or criminal liability for violating any such law or regulation. In particular, adherence to these Guidelines shall not be construed to preclude any criminal charge, civil fine, or other action by Treasury or the Department of Justice against persons who engage in prohibited transactions with persons designated pursuant to the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, as amended, or with those that are E:\FR\FM\08DEN1.SGM Continued 08DEN1
