request of the Office of Export
Enforcement (‘‘OEE’’) to renew the July
7, 2016 Temporary Denial Order (the
‘‘TDO’’). The July 7, 2016 Order denied

Abdullah Alhay, Bahar Safwa General
Trading, Sky Blue Bird Group, and
Issam Shammout.2 I find that renewal of
the TDO is necessary in the public
interest to prevent an imminent
violation of the EAR.
I. Procedural History
On March 17, 2008, Darryl W.
Jackson, the then-Assistant Secretary of
Commerce for Export Enforcement
(‘‘Assistant Secretary’’), signed a TDO
denying Mahan Airways’ export
privileges for a period of 180 days on
the grounds that its issuance was
necessary in the public interest to
prevent an imminent violation of the
Regulations. The TDO also named as
denied persons Blue Airways, of
Yerevan, Armenia (‘‘Blue Airways of
Armenia’’), as well as the ‘‘Balli Group
Respondents,’’ namely, Balli Group
PLC, Balli Aviation, Balli Holdings,
Vahid Alaghband, Hassan Alaghband,
Blue Sky One Ltd., Blue Sky Two Ltd.,
Blue Sky Three Ltd., Blue Sky Four Ltd.,
Blue Sky Five Ltd., and Blue Sky Six
Ltd., all of the United Kingdom. The
TDO was issued ex parte pursuant to
Section 766.24(a), and went into effect
on March 21, 2008, the date it was
published in the Federal Register.
The TDO subsequently has been
renewed in accordance with Section
766.24(d), including most recently on
July 7, 2016.3 As of March 9, 2010, the
August 21, 2001, the Act has been in lapse and the
President, through Executive Order 13222 of August
17, 2001 (3 CFR, 2001 Comp. 783 (2002)), which
has been extended by successive Presidential
Notices, the most recent being that of August 4,
2016 (81 FR 52,58748,223 (Aug. 8, 2016)), has
continued the Regulations in effect under the
International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50
U.S.C. 1701, et seq. (2006 & Supp. IV 2010)).
2 See note 3, infra.
3 The July 7, 2016 Order was published in the
Federal Register on July 13, 2016 (81 Fed Reg.
45276). The TDO previously had been renewed on
September 17, 2008, March 16, 2009, September 11,
2009, March 9, 2010, September 3, 2010, February
25, 2011, August 24, 2011, February 15, 2012,

July 13, 2015, and January 7, 2016. The August 24,
2011 renewal followed the modification of the TDO
on July 1, 2011, which added Zarand Aviation as
a respondent. The July 13, 2015 renewal followed
the modification of the TDO on May 21, 2015,
which added Al Naser Airlines, Ali Abdullah
