This final rule replaces the regulations that were published in abbreviated form on May 5, 2010 and includes additional interpretive and definitional guidance, general licenses, statements of licensing policy, and other regulatory provisions that will provide further guidance to the public. Due to the number of regulatory sections being updated or added, OFAC is reissuing the Somalia Sanctions Regulations in their entirety.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: VerDate Sep<11>2014 15:50 Apr 27, 2021 Jkt 253001 Electronic Availability This document and additional information concerning OFAC are available on OFAC’s website (www.treasury.gov/ofac). Background On May 5, 2010, OFAC issued the Somalia Sanctions Regulations, 31 CFR part 551 (75 FR 24394, May 5, 2010) (the ‘‘Regulations’’), to implement Executive Order (E.O.) 13536 of April 12, 2010, ‘‘Blocking Property of Certain Persons Contributing to the Conflict in Somalia’’ (75 FR 19869, April 15, 2010), pursuant to authorities delegated to the Secretary of the Treasury in E.O. 13536. The Regulations were initially issued in abbreviated form for the purpose of providing immediate guidance to the public. OFAC is revising the Regulations to further implement E.O. 13536 and to implement E.O. 13620 of July 20, 2012, ‘‘Taking Additional Steps to Address the National Emergency With Respect to Somalia’’ (77 FR 43483, July 24, 2012), which amended E.O. 13536. OFAC is amending and reissuing the Regulations as a more comprehensive set of regulations that includes additional interpretive and definitional guidance, general licenses, statements of licensing policy, and other regulatory provisions that will provide further guidance to the public. Due to the number of regulatory sections being updated or added, OFAC is reissuing the Regulations in their entirety. E.O. 13536 On April 12, 2010, the President, invoking the authority of, inter alia, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701–1706) (IEEPA) and the United Nations Participation Act, as amended (22 U.S.C. 287c) (UNPA), issued E.O. 13536. In E.O. 13536, the President found that the deterioration of the security situation and the persistence of violence in Somalia, and acts of piracy and armed robbery at sea off the coast of Somalia, and violations of a United Nations arms embargo, constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States and declared a national emergency to deal with that threat. Section 1(a) of E.O. 13536 blocked, with certain exceptions, all property and interests in property that are in the United States, that come within the United States, or that are or come within the possession or control of any U.S. person of: (i) The persons listed in the Annex to E.O. 13536; and (ii) any person determined by the Secretary of PO 00000 Frm 00006 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State: (A) To have engaged in acts that directly or indirectly threaten the peace, security, or stability of Somalia, including: (1) Acts that threaten the Djibouti Agreement of August 18, 2008, or the political process; or (2) acts that threaten the Transitional Federal Institutions, the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM), or other international peacekeeping operations related to Somalia; (B) to have obstructed the delivery of humanitarian assistance to Somalia, or access to, or distribution of, humanitarian assistance in Somalia; (C) to have directly or indirectly supplied, sold, or transferred to Somalia, or to have been the recipient in the territory of Somalia of, arms or any related materiel, or any technical advice, training, or assistance, including financing and financial assistance, related to military activities; (D) to have materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial, material, logistical, or technical support for, or goods or services in support of, the activities described above or any person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to E.O. 13536; or (E) to be owned or controlled by, or to have acted or purported to act for or on behalf of, directly or indirectly, any person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to E.O. 13536. The property and interests in property of the persons described above may not be transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in. As discussed further below, section 1(a) of E.O. 13536 was amended by E.O. 13620. In Section 1(b) of E.O. 13536, the President determined that acts of piracy or armed robbery at sea off the coast of Somalia threaten the peace, security, or stability of Somalia. In Section 1(c) of E.O. 13536, the President further determined that the making of donations of certain articles, such as food, clothing, and medicine, intended to be used to relieve human suffering, as specified in section 203(b)(2) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(2)) by, to, or for the benefit of any person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to E.O. 13536 would seriously impair his ability to deal with the national emergency declared in E.O. 13536. The President therefore prohibited the provision of such donations unless authorized by OFAC. Section 1(d) of E.O. 13536 provides that the prohibition on any transaction or dealing in blocked property or interests in property includes the making of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services by, to, or for E:\FR\FM\28APR1.SGM 28APR1
