parts of 31 CFR chapter V to clarify
OFAC’s processes when it issues certain

orders that block or identify as blocked
specific property or interests in
property, or that impose other nonblocking prohibitions with respect to
specific property or interests in
property.
ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with RULES1
International Emergency Economic
Powers Act
The 35 parts of 31 CFR chapter V that
are the subject of this rule implement
OFAC’s authority to block the property
and interests in property of persons
pursuant to, among other authorities,
the International Emergency Economic
Powers Act, 50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.
(IEEPA).
IEEPA includes authority to
investigate, block during the pendency
of an investigation, regulate, direct and
compel, nullify, void, prevent or
prohibit, any acquisition, holding,
withholding, use, transfer, withdrawal,
transportation, importation or
exportation of, or dealing in, or
exercising any right, power, or privilege
with respect to, or transaction involving,
any property in which any foreign
country or a national thereof has any
interest by any person, or with respect
to any property, subject to the
jurisdiction of the United States. 50
U.S.C. 1702(a)(1)(B). Other statutes
provide similar authority.
OFAC’s actions rely on the President’s
delegation of those authorities under
one or more Executive orders. Such
orders typically authorize the Secretary
of the Treasury to designate persons
who meet specified criteria, and they
provide that all property and interests in
property within U.S. jurisdiction of
such persons is blocked. These orders
also authorize the Secretary of the
Treasury, in consultation with the
Secretary of State, to take such actions
and to employ all powers granted to the
President under IEEPA or other
applicable statutory authorities as may
be necessary to carry out their purpose,
and they provide that blocking
prohibitions apply except to the extent
provided in regulations, orders,
directives, or licenses OFAC may issue.
See, e.g., section 1(d) of Executive Order
(E.O.) 14024.
Actions With Respect to Specific
Property or Interests in Property
The most common way OFAC
exercises its authority is by designating
a person and placing that person on
OFAC’s Specially Designated Nationals
and Blocked Persons List (SDN List).
Once designated, all property and
interests in property subject to U.S.
jurisdiction of the designated person are
blocked, and U.S. persons are generally
prohibited from engaging in transactions
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:25 Sep 16, 2024
Jkt 262001
involving any property or interest in
property of the designated person.
However, in certain cases, OFAC may
exercise its authority in narrower ways.
These actions include issuing orders or
directives that impose prohibitions less
than fully blocking the entirety of a
person’s property and interests in
property as circumstances require. Such
tailored actions are based on a
combination of OFAC’s authority to
block all property of a designated
person and its authority to narrow the
scope of such broad prohibitions
through orders, directives, or licenses.
This rule identifies three forms that
such actions by OFAC may take: (1)
identifying property or interests in
property as blocked pursuant to OFAC’s
authority due to an interest of an
already blocked person, including
where such interest may not be apparent
to the public; (2) blocking specific
property or interests in property of a
person who is not already blocked but
whom OFAC is investigating for
potential designation; and (3) blocking
or imposing other prohibitions with
respect to a person’s specific property or
interests in property less than full
blocking sanctions.
First, OFAC may act to aid relevant
parties by identifying the property or
interests in property of already blocked
persons, particularly in cases in which
OFAC has access to information
supporting its determination that a
blocked person has an interest in
specific property. In such cases, OFAC
may identify specific property in which
OFAC determines a blocked person has
an interest and issue an order to
financial institutions or other persons in
possession or control of such property
to block such property. OFAC may also
exercise its blocking authorities in this
manner upon review of financial
transaction information received from
U.S. financial institutions following
OFAC’s requirements that such
financial institutions provide reports
about accounts or transactions that meet
specified criteria. See note 1 to 31 CFR
501.602.
Second, OFAC may identify property
or interests in property of a person who
is not blocked, but whom OFAC is
investigating for potential designation.
To ensure that this property or interest
in property is not transferred before
OFAC designates the person, OFAC may
issue an order to financial institutions
or other persons in possession or control
of such property or interest in property
to block it pending investigation.
Third, in certain other cases, OFAC
may block or impose other prohibitions
with respect to specific property or
interests in property less than full
PO 00000
Frm 00010
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
blocking sanctions. For example, OFAC
may consider designating a person but
determine U.S. national security or
foreign policy interests are better served
by prohibitions that may be narrower
than blocking the entirety of the
person’s property and interests in
property. In such cases, OFAC would
determine that a person meets the
criteria for designation but would take
action less than blocking the entirety of
a person’s property and interests in
property. This action may take various
forms, including an order to the
financial institutions or other persons in
possession or control of the specific
property or interests in property or a
directive imposing non-blocking
restrictions. For example, in 2014 OFAC
issued directives pursuant to sec. 1(b) of
Executive Order 13662 that prohibited
certain dealings in debt and equity of
persons operating in those sectors of the
Russian Federation economy identified
by the Secretary of the Treasury
pursuant to sec. 1(a)(i) of Executive
Order 13662.
Provision of Notice
Persons affected by any type of OFAC
prohibition should have an opportunity
to understand the nature of OFAC’s
action and its impact on their property
or interests in property. The form of
notice may differ depending on the type
of action OFAC takes or order it issues
and the specific facts of an action.
OFAC may publish notice of its action
in the Federal Register, which provides
the public with constructive notice of
the action. This is the form of notice
OFAC uses for designation actions
because it ensures that anyone who may
come into contact with a designated
person or their property or interests in
property is aware of the designation.
When OFAC takes more tailored
action with respect to specific property
or interests in property, the public may
not always require notice of the action
through publication in the Federal
Register, and it may be more
appropriate to provide actual notice
specifically to a person affected by the
prohibition. OFAC may do so by
providing written notice of OFAC’s
order to one or more persons OFAC
assesses to have an interest in the
property based on available information.
OFAC may provide such notice directly
to such affected persons or indirectly
through financial institutions or other
transaction intermediaries, who would
be required to notify the affected
persons with whom the recipient
maintains direct commercial
relationships. In many cases, requiring a
transaction intermediary to disclose a
blocking order may be the most efficient
E:\FR\FM\17SER1.SGM
17SER1
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 180 / Tuesday, September 17, 2024 / Rules and Regulations
ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with RULES1
and effective means of providing notice
because a transaction intermediary
maintains direct commercial
relationships through which affected
persons may inquire about the status of
their funds.1
Current Regulatory Action
This rule amends notes to the
blocking provisions in subpart B of
OFAC’s regulations in 35 parts of 31
CFR chapter V (the ‘‘subject parts’’). The
blocking provisions are in § lll.201
in the following parts of 31 CFR: 510,
525, 526, 536, 542, 544, 546, 547, 548,
549, 550, 551, 552, 553, 555, 558, 562,
569, 570, 576, 578, 579, 582, 583, 584,
585, 587, 588, 589, 590, 591, 594, and
599. In part 536, in addition to
amending § 536.201, OFAC is amending
notes to § 536.312, the definition of
specially designated narcotics trafficker,
because that definition discusses
blocked property and blocking orders.
In part 560, the blocking provisions are
in § 560.211. In part 598, the blocking
provisions are in § 598.202, and in
addition to amending that section,
OFAC is amending § 598.314, the
definition of specially designated
narcotics trafficker, because that
definition discusses blocked property
and blocking orders.
Specifically, this rule adds a note to
the subject parts describing the three
types of actions OFAC may take with
respect to specific property or interests
in property, the forms of notice that
OFAC may use, and how affected
persons can contact OFAC with
inquiries about these actions.
Additionally, this rule amends an
existing note to the subject parts
regarding OFAC’s blocking of property
and interests in property pending
investigation. OFAC is amending the
note to make clear that the procedure of
publishing the names of persons
blocked during the pendency of an
investigation in the Federal Register
will not necessarily apply when OFAC
takes an action to block specific
property or interests in property
pending investigation.
Finally, OFAC is updating the note in
the subject parts that explains the
procedures for seeking release of
blocked property or administrative
reconsideration of OFAC actions to add
information about additional
unblocking procedures available to
blocked or otherwise affected persons.
In certain parts, OFAC is making other

includes the authority to require a participant in a
transaction who is subject to U.S. jurisdiction to
provide notice to its direct commercial counterparts
when the transaction is blocked. 50 U.S.C.

Updating Provisions Related to Blocking and Other Actions Related
to Specific Property or Interests in Property
AGENCY: Office of Foreign Assets Control, Treasury.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets
Control (OFAC) is adopting a final rule to clarify OFAC's process for
issuing certain orders that block or identify as blocked specific
property or interests in property, or that impose other prohibitions
less than full blocking with respect to specific property or interests
in property. OFAC is adding information about these orders in
regulatory notes in 35 of OFAC's sanctions regulations.
DATES: This rule is effective September 17, 2024.

Licensing, 202-622-2480; Assistant Director for Regulatory Affairs,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Electronic Availability
This document and additional information concerning OFAC are
available on OFAC's website: https://ofac.treasury.gov.
Background
In this rule, OFAC is updating 35 parts of 31 CFR chapter V to
clarify OFAC's processes when it issues certain
[[Page 75956]]
orders that block or identify as blocked specific property or interests
in property, or that impose other non-blocking prohibitions with
respect to specific property or interests in property.
International Emergency Economic Powers Act
The 35 parts of 31 CFR chapter V that are the subject of this rule
implement OFAC's authority to block the property and interests in
property of persons pursuant to, among other authorities, the
International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.
(IEEPA).
IEEPA includes authority to investigate, block during the pendency
of an investigation, regulate, direct and compel, nullify, void,
prevent or prohibit, any acquisition, holding, withholding, use,
transfer, withdrawal, transportation, importation or exportation of, or
dealing in, or exercising any right, power, or privilege with respect
to, or transaction involving, any property in which any foreign country
or a national thereof has any interest by any person, or with respect
to any property, subject to the jurisdiction of the United States. 50
U.S.C. 1702(a)(1)(B). Other statutes provide similar authority.
OFAC's actions rely on the President's delegation of those
authorities under one or more Executive orders. Such orders typically
authorize the Secretary of the Treasury to designate persons who meet
specified criteria, and they provide that all property and interests in
property within U.S. jurisdiction of such persons is blocked. These
orders also authorize the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation
with the Secretary of State, to take such actions and to employ all
powers granted to the President under IEEPA or other applicable
statutory authorities as may be necessary to carry out their purpose,
and they provide that blocking prohibitions apply except to the extent
provided in regulations, orders, directives, or licenses OFAC may
issue. See, e.g., section 1(d) of Executive Order (E.O.) 14024.
Actions With Respect to Specific Property or Interests in Property
The most common way OFAC exercises its authority is by designating
a person and placing that person on OFAC's Specially Designated
Nationals and Blocked Persons List (SDN List). Once designated, all
property and interests in property subject to U.S. jurisdiction of the
designated person are blocked, and U.S. persons are generally
prohibited from engaging in transactions involving any property or
interest in property of the designated person. However, in certain
cases, OFAC may exercise its authority in narrower ways. These actions
include issuing orders or directives that impose prohibitions less than
fully blocking the entirety of a person's property and interests in
property as circumstances require. Such tailored actions are based on a
combination of OFAC's authority to block all property of a designated
person and its authority to narrow the scope of such broad prohibitions
through orders, directives, or licenses.
This rule identifies three forms that such actions by OFAC may
take: (1) identifying property or interests in property as blocked
pursuant to OFAC's authority due to an interest of an already blocked
person, including where such interest may not be apparent to the
public; (2) blocking specific property or interests in property of a
person who is not already blocked but whom OFAC is investigating for
potential designation; and (3) blocking or imposing other prohibitions
with respect to a person's specific property or interests in property
less than full blocking sanctions.
First, OFAC may act to aid relevant parties by identifying the
property or interests in property of already blocked persons,
particularly in cases in which OFAC has access to information
supporting its determination that a blocked person has an interest in
specific property. In such cases, OFAC may identify specific property
in which OFAC determines a blocked person has an interest and issue an
order to financial institutions or other persons in possession or
control of such property to block such property. OFAC may also exercise
its blocking authorities in this manner upon review of financial
transaction information received from U.S. financial institutions
following OFAC's requirements that such financial institutions provide
reports about accounts or transactions that meet specified criteria.
See note 1 to 31 CFR 501.602.
Second, OFAC may identify property or interests in property of a
person who is not blocked, but whom OFAC is investigating for potential
designation. To ensure that this property or interest in property is
not transferred before OFAC designates the person, OFAC may issue an
order to financial institutions or other persons in possession or
control of such property or interest in property to block it pending
investigation.
Third, in certain other cases, OFAC may block or impose other
prohibitions with respect to specific property or interests in property
less than full blocking sanctions. For example, OFAC may consider
designating a person but determine U.S. national security or foreign
policy interests are better served by prohibitions that may be narrower
than blocking the entirety of the person's property and interests in
property. In such cases, OFAC would determine that a person meets the
criteria for designation but would take action less than blocking the
entirety of a person's property and interests in property. This action
may take various forms, including an order to the financial
institutions or other persons in possession or control of the specific
property or interests in property or a directive imposing non-blocking
restrictions. For example, in 2014 OFAC issued directives pursuant to
sec. 1(b) of Executive Order 13662 that prohibited certain dealings in
debt and equity of persons operating in those sectors of the Russian
Federation economy identified by the Secretary of the Treasury pursuant
to sec. 1(a)(i) of Executive Order 13662.
Provision of Notice
Persons affected by any type of OFAC prohibition should have an
opportunity to understand the nature of OFAC's action and its impact on
their property or interests in property. The form of notice may differ
depending on the type of action OFAC takes or order it issues and the
specific facts of an action.
OFAC may publish notice of its action in the Federal Register,
which provides the public with constructive notice of the action. This
is the form of notice OFAC uses for designation actions because it
ensures that anyone who may come into contact with a designated person
or their property or interests in property is aware of the designation.
When OFAC takes more tailored action with respect to specific
property or interests in property, the public may not always require
notice of the action through publication in the Federal Register, and
it may be more appropriate to provide actual notice specifically to a
person affected by the prohibition. OFAC may do so by providing written
notice of OFAC's order to one or more persons OFAC assesses to have an
interest in the property based on available information. OFAC may
provide such notice directly to such affected persons or indirectly
through financial institutions or other transaction intermediaries, who
would be required to notify the affected persons with whom the
recipient maintains direct commercial relationships. In many cases,
requiring a transaction intermediary to disclose a blocking order may
be the most efficient
[[Page 75957]]
and effective means of providing notice because a transaction
intermediary maintains direct commercial relationships through which
affected persons may inquire about the status of their funds.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ OFAC's authority to ``regulate'' transactions includes the
authority to require a participant in a transaction who is subject
to U.S. jurisdiction to provide notice to its direct commercial
counterparts when the transaction is blocked. 50 U.S.C.
1702(a)(1)(B).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Current Regulatory Action
This rule amends notes to the blocking provisions in subpart B of
OFAC's regulations in 35 parts of 31 CFR chapter V (the ``subject
parts''). The blocking provisions are in Sec. ___.201 in the following
parts of 31 CFR: 510, 525, 526, 536, 542, 544, 546, 547, 548, 549, 550,
551, 552, 553, 555, 558, 562, 569, 570, 576, 578, 579, 582, 583, 584,
585, 587, 588, 589, 590, 591, 594, and 599. In part 536, in addition to
amending Sec. 536.201, OFAC is amending notes to Sec. 536.312, the
definition of specially designated narcotics trafficker, because that
definition discusses blocked property and blocking orders. In part 560,
the blocking provisions are in Sec. 560.211. In part 598, the blocking
provisions are in Sec. 598.202, and in addition to amending that
section, OFAC is amending Sec. 598.314, the definition of specially
designated narcotics trafficker, because that definition discusses
blocked property and blocking orders.
Specifically, this rule adds a note to the subject parts describing
the three types of actions OFAC may take with respect to specific
property or interests in property, the forms of notice that OFAC may
use, and how affected persons can contact OFAC with inquiries about
these actions.
Additionally, this rule amends an existing note to the subject
parts regarding OFAC's blocking of property and interests in property
pending investigation. OFAC is amending the note to make clear that the
procedure of publishing the names of persons blocked during the
pendency of an investigation in the Federal Register will not
necessarily apply when OFAC takes an action to block specific property
or interests in property pending investigation.
Finally, OFAC is updating the note in the subject parts that
explains the procedures for seeking release of blocked property or
administrative reconsideration of OFAC actions to add information about
additional unblocking procedures available to blocked or otherwise
affected persons. In certain parts, OFAC is making other technical or
other conforming updates to the notes.
Public Participation
Because the Regulations involve a foreign affairs function, the
provisions of E.O. 12866 of September 30, 1993, ``Regulatory Planning
and Review'' (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), as amended, and the
Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) requiring notice of
proposed rulemaking, opportunity for public participation, and delay in
effective date are inapplicable. Because no notice of proposed
rulemaking is required for this rule, the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5
U.S.C. 601-612) does not apply.
Paperwork Reduction Act
The collections of information related to the Regulations are
contained in 31 CFR part 501 (the ``Reporting, Procedures and Penalties
Regulations''). Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3507), those collections of information have been approved by
the Office of Management and Budget under control number 1505-0164. An
agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information unless the collection of
information displays a valid control number.
