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: April 16, 2013.

Secretary of State.

[Public Notice 8328]
Notice of Availability of Finding of No
Significant Impact for the Proposed
Vantage Pipeline US LP Ethane
Pipeline Project
The purpose of this notice is
to inform the public of the availability
of the Department of State’s Finding of
No Significant Impact on the proposed
Vantage Pipeline US LP Ethane Pipeline
Project. Under E.O. 13337, the Secretary
of State is authorized to issue
Presidential Permits for the
construction, connection, operation, or
maintenance at the borders of the
United States, of facilities for the
exportation or importation of liquid
petroleum, petroleum products, or other
non-gaseous fuels to or from a foreign
country. Vantage Pipeline US LP
(Vantage) has applied to the Department
of State (the Department) for a
Presidential Permit authorizing it to
develop and maintain a new pipeline
facility at the U.S.-Canada international
boundary, a Cross Border Facility, near
Fortuna, Divide County, North Dakota.
Vantage proposes to construct,
operate, and maintain a high vapor
pressure pipeline that would carry
ethane from a source near Tioga, North
Dakota, United States, northwest
through Saskatchewan, Canada, to a site
near Empress, Alberta, Canada. The
pipeline would link a growing supply of
ethane from North Dakota to markets in
Alberta, Canada. The entire proposed
Vantage Pipeline in the United States

would consist of the installation of
approximately 79.8 miles of new 10inch-diameter pipeline in Williams and
Divide Counties, North Dakota; the
installation of associated aboveground
mainline block valves; and the use of
access roads and pipe storage and
contractor yards.
Consistent with NEPA (42 U.S.C.
4321, et seq.), the regulations of the
Council on Environmental Quality (40
CFR parts 1500–1508), and the
Department’s implementing regulations
(22 CFR part 161, and in particular 22
CFR 161.7(c)), the Department of State
has found that issuance of a Presidential
Permit authorizing the construction,
connection, operation, and maintenance
of the Cross Border Facility would not
have a significant impact on the quality
of the human environment. The Finding
of No Significant Impact was signed by
the Department on May 13, 2013.
This Finding of No Significant Impact
is not a decision on the Presidential
Permit application. In accordance with
E.O. 13337, the Department will now
proceed to make a determination as to
whether issuance of a Presidential
Permit for the border facilities of
Vantage’s proposed Ethane Pipeline
Project would serve the national
interest.
The Finding of No Significant Impact
is available from the Department on the
Vantage Pipeline Project Web site. The

Impact: https://
