In the Matter of the Designation of
Caucasus Emirate aka Imarat Kavkaz
aka Imirat Kavkaz aka Islamic Emirate
of the Caucasus as a Specially
Designated Global Terrorist Pursuant
to Section 1(b) of Executive Order
13224, as Amended
Acting under the authority of and in
accordance with section 1(b) of
Executive Order 13224 of September 23,
2001, as amended by Executive Order
13268 of July 2, 2002, and Executive
Order 13284 of January 23, 2003, I
hereby determine that the group known
as Caucasus Emirate, also known as
Imarat Kavkaz, also known as Imirat
Kavkaz, also known as Islamic Emirate
of the Caucasus, poses a significant risk
of committing acts of terrorism that
threaten the security of U.S. nationals or
the national security, foreign policy, or
economy of the United States.
Consistent with the determination in
section 10 of Executive Order 13224 that
‘‘prior notice to persons determined to
be subject to the Order who might have
a constitutional presence in the United
States would render ineffectual the
blocking and other measures authorized
in the Order because of the ability to
transfer funds instantaneously,’’ I
determine that no prior notice needs to
be provided to any person subject to this
determination who might have a
constitutional presence in the United
States, because to do so would render
ineffectual the measures authorized in
the Order.
This notice shall be published in the
Federal Register.
Dated: May 2, 2011.

Secretary of State.

Notice, termination of action,
and further monitoring.
ACTION:
In July 1999, pursuant to
authority under Section 301 of the
Trade Act of 1974, as amended (the
Trade Act), and as authorized by the
Dispute Settlement Body (DSB) of the
World Trade Organization (WTO), the
United States Trade Representative
(Trade Representative) imposed
additional duties on certain products of
member states of the European Union
(EU) as a result of the EU’s failure to
comply with the recommendations and
rulings of the DSB in the EC-Beef
Hormones dispute. In January 2009, the
Trade Representative announced a
determination to modify the list of
products subject to additional duties by
removing some products from the list of
products subject to additional duties,
and by adding replacement products.
The January modification had an initial
effective date of March 23, 2009. The
Trade Representative subsequently
delayed the additional duties on the
replacement products in order to
promote negotiations with the EU. The
removal of products was not delayed.
As a result, as of March 23, 2009, the
additional duties applied only to a
reduced list of products, consisting of
those products covered in the original
1999 list that had not been subject to
replacement. On May 13, 2009, the
United States and the EU announced the
signing of a Memorandum of
Understanding (MOU) in the EC-Beef
Hormones dispute. The MOU provides
for the EU to make phased increases in
market access by adopting a tariff-rate
quota (TRQ) for certain beef products, in
return for the United States making
phased reductions in the additional
duties. Under the first phase of the
MOU, in August 2009 the EU opened up
a TRQ in the amount of 20,000 metric
tons, and the Trade Representative
terminated the additional duties on the
replacement products. (Those additional
duties had been announced in January
2009 but had never entered into force.)
The Trade Representative’s action left in
place a reduced list of products subject
to additional duties. The MOU provides
for the possibility of the United States
and the EU to enter into a second phase
starting in August 2012, in which the
EU would increase the TRQ to 45,000
metric tons, and the United States
would lift the remaining additional
duties. As a result of a decision of the
United States Court of Appeals for the
Federal Circuit, the Trade
Representative has determined to
terminate the remaining additional
duties in advance of the August 2012
start date of the possible second phase
