DEPARTMENT OF STATE 

[Public Notice 8373] 

Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs, 

Executive Order 11423, as Amended; 

Notice of Receipt of Application for an 

Amendment to a Presidential Permit To 

Allow the Crossing of Non-Radioactive 

Hazardous Materials Across the World 

Trade Bridge in the City of Laredo, 

Texas 

AGENCY: Department of State. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Department of State 

hereby gives notice that it has received 

an application for an amendment to the 

existing Presidential permit to allow the 

crossing of non-hazardous radioactive 

materials (HAZMAT) across the World 

Trade Bridge between the City of 

Laredo, Texas and Nuevo Laredo, 

Tamaulipas, Mexico. This application 

has been filed by the City of Laredo, the 

original permittee for the World Trade 

Bridge. A Presidential permit for the 

World Trade Bridge crossing was issued 

by the Department of State on October 

7, 1994. 

The Department of State’s jurisdiction 

with respect to this application is based 

upon the International Bridge Act of 

1972, 33 U.S.C. 535 et seq., and 

Executive Order 11423, dated August 

16, 1968, as amended. The Department 

of State has determined that, under 

Executive Order 11423, an amended 

Presidential permit is required to allow 

the transit of HAZMATs as this 

constitutes a substantial change to the 

operations of the crossing as authorized 

by the existing Presidential permit. 

As provided in E.O. 11423, the 

Department is circulating the City of 

Laredo’s application, along with the EA, 

to concerned agencies for comment. 

Under E.O. 11423, the Department has 

the responsibility to determine, taking 

into account input from these agencies 

and other stakeholders, whether 

issuance of an amendment to the 

Presidential Permit would serve the 

national interest. 

Interested members of the public are 

invited to submit written comments 

regarding this application on or before 

August 7, 2013 to 

MexicoCrossingComm@State.gov or to 

Peter Marigliano, Border Affairs Officer, 

WHA/MEX, HST Room 1329A, 

Department of State, 2201 C St. NW., 

Washington, DC 20520. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Peter Marigliano, Border Affairs Officer, 

WHA/MEX, HST Room 1329A, 

Department of State, 2201 C St. NW., 

Washington, DC 20520. Telephone: 

(202) 647–9895, email: WHABorderAffairs@state.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

application and related documents are 

available for review in the Office of 

Mexican Affairs, Border Affairs Unit, 

Department of State, during normal 

business hours throughout the comment 

period. Any questions related to this 

notice may be addressed to Mr. 

Marigliano using the contact 

information above. 

Dated: June 27, 2013.

Acting Director, Office of Mexican Affairs, 

Department of State.
