Title: Unauthorized Entry into Cuban
Territorial Waters.
OMB Control Number: 1625–0106.
Summary: The Coast Guard, pursuant
to Presidential proclamation and order
of the Secretary of Homeland Security,
is requiring U.S. vessels, and vessels
without nationality, less than 100
meters, located within the internal
waters or the 12 nautical mile territorial
sea of the United States, that thereafter
enter Cuban territorial waters, to apply
for and receive a Coast Guard permit.
Need: The information is collected to
regulate departure from U.S. territorial
waters of U.S. vessels, and vessels
without nationality, and entry thereafter
into Cuban territorial waters. The need
to regulate this vessel traffic supports
ongoing efforts to enforce the Cuban
embargo, which is designed to bring
about an end to the current government
and a peaceful transition to democracy.
Accordingly, only applicants that
demonstrate prior U.S. government
approval for exports to and transactions
with Cuba will be issued a Coast Guard
permit.
The permit regulation requires that
applicants hold United States
Department of Commerce, Bureau of
Industry and Security (BIS) and U.S.
Department of Treasury the Office of
Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) licenses
that permit exports to and transactions
with Cuba. The USCG permit process
thus allows the agency to collect
information from applicants about their
status vis-a`-vis BIS and OFAC licenses
and monitor compliance with BIS and
OFAC regulations. These two agencies
administer statutes and regulations that
proscribe exports to (BIS) and
transactions with (OFAC) Cuba.
Accordingly, in order to assist BIS and
OFAC in the enforcement of these
license requirements, as directed by the
President and the Secretary of
Homeland Security, the Coast Guard is
requiring certain U.S. vessels, and
vessels without nationality, to
demonstrate that they hold these
licenses before they depart for Cuban
waters.
Forms: CG–3300, Application for
Permit to Enter Cuban Territorial Seas.
Respondents: Owners and operators
of vessels.
Frequency: On occasion.
Hour Burden Estimate: The estimated
burden remains around 5 hours per
year.
Authority: The Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C. chapter 35, as
amended.
Dated: March 29, 2024.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 1505 and
Treasury Decision 85–93, published in
the Federal Register on May 29, 1985
(50 FR 21832), the interest rate paid on
applicable overpayments or
underpayments of customs duties must
be in accordance with the Internal
Revenue Code rate established under 26
U.S.C. 6621 and 6622. Section 6621
provides different interest rates
applicable to overpayments: one for
corporations and one for noncorporations.
The interest rates are based on the
Federal short-term rate and determined
by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) on
behalf of the Secretary of the Treasury
on a quarterly basis. The rates effective
for a quarter are determined during the
first-month period of the previous
quarter.
In Revenue Ruling 2024–6, the IRS
determined the rates of interest for the
calendar quarter beginning April 1,
2024, and ending on June 30, 2024. The
interest rate paid to the Treasury for
underpayments will be the Federal
short-term rate (5%) plus three
percentage points (3%) for a total of
eight percent (8%) for both corporations
and non-corporations. For
overpayments made by noncorporations, the rate is the Federal
short-term rate (5%) plus three
percentage points (3%) for a total of
eight percent (8%). For corporate
overpayments, the rate is the Federal
short-term rate (5%) plus two
percentage points (2%) for a total of
seven percent (7%). These interest rates
used to calculate interest on overdue
accounts (underpayments) and refunds
(overpayments) of customs duties
remain the same from the previous
quarter. These interest rates are subject
to change for the calendar quarter
beginning July 1, 2024, and ending on
September 30, 2024.
For the convenience of the importing
public and U.S. Customs and Border
Protection personnel, the following list
of IRS interest rates used, covering the
period from July of 1974 to date, to
calculate interest on overdue accounts
and refunds of customs duties, is
published in summary format.
