Background
On June 28, 2005, the President, invoking the authority, inter
alia, of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C.
1701-1706) (``IEEPA''), issued Executive Order 13382 (70 FR 38567, July
1, 2005) (the ``Order''), effective at 12:01 a.m. eastern daylight time
on June 29, 2005. In the Order, the President took additional steps
with respect to the national emergency described and declared in
Executive Order 12938 of November 14, 1994, regarding the proliferation
of weapons of mass destruction and the means of delivering them.
Section 1 of the Order blocks, with certain exceptions, all
property and interests in property that are in the United States, or
that hereafter come within the United States or that are or hereafter
come within the possession or control of United States persons, of: (1)
The persons listed in the Annex to the Order; (2) any foreign person
determined by the Secretary of State, in consultation with the
Secretary of the Treasury, the Attorney General, and other relevant
agencies, to have engaged, or attempted to engage, in activities or
transactions that have
[[Page 55165]]
materially contributed to, or pose a risk of materially contributing
to, the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction or their means of
delivery (including missiles capable of delivering such weapons),
including any efforts to manufacture, acquire, possess, develop,
transport, transfer or use such items, by any person or foreign country
of proliferation concern; (3) any person determined by the Secretary of
the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State, the Attorney
General, and other relevant agencies, to have provided, or attempted to
provide, financial, material, technological or other support for, or
goods or services in support of, any activity or transaction described
in clause (2) above or any person whose property and interests in
property are blocked pursuant to the Order; and (4) any person
determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the
Secretary of State, the Attorney General, and other relevant agencies,
to be owned or controlled by, or acting or purporting to act for or on
behalf of, directly or indirectly, any person whose property and
interests in property are blocked pursuant to the Order.
On March 31, 2011, the Director of OFAC updated the information on
OFAC's list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons of
the following two entities affiliated with the Islamic Republic of Iran
Shipping Lines (IRISL), identified three vessels as property of IRISL,
updated 21 already-blocked IRISL vessels to identify new names or other
information given to those vessels, and removed 10 vessels that were
previously identified as property of IRISL. Banks are instructed to
reject any funds transfer referencing a blocked vessel and must notify
OFAC, via facsimile with a copy of the payment instructions that funds
have been returned to the remitter due to the possible involvement of a
SDN vessel in the underlying transaction.
