Introduction

In response to a request from Colombia for market access to import fresh arugula [Eruca sativa 

P. Mill.] into the Continental United States, the Center for Plant Health Science and Technology 

(CPHST) division of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA)’s Animal and Plant 

Health Inspection Service (APHIS) prepared a pest risk assessment (PRA) (USDA. 2008) as per 

the Guidelines for Pathway-Initiated Pest Risk Assessment (USDA. 2000). The PRA identified 

no pests of quarantine significance that would likely follow the pathway of fresh arugula leaves

imported into the continental United States.

The pest risk assessment document, Importation of Arugula (Eruca sativa P. Mill.) into the 

Continental United States from Colombia, found no evidence of quarantine pests of arugula from 

Colombia that follow the pathway. Species found as external feeders of arugula from Colombia 

are unlikely to remain with the vegetable because the product will not be harvested or selected 

for exportation if the pests are present or if it shows any damage from these pests. 

Risk Management Measures

• Arugula must be imported in commercial shipments only

• APHIS requires a phytosanitary certificate be issued by the Colombia NPPO for each 

shipment to assure that the arugula is free of pests.

• Each shipment is subject to inspection upon arrival in the United States.

Conclusion

APHIS believes that the phytosanitary measures proposed in this document will result in the 

effective removal of potential quarantine pests associated with the importation of fresh arugula 

from Colombia. The inspections received in Colombia and at the port of entry into the United

States will be effective in assuring that arugula is free of pests (Cavey, 2003; Wittenberg and 

Cock, 2001).

KEITH A. HALLIBURTON,

Defendant-Appellant.

Appeal from the United 

States District Court for the 

Central District of Illinois.

No. 98 CR 20042

Michael P. McCuskey, 

Chief Judge.

Order

Approximately eight years after we affirmed his conviction and sentence on 

direct appeal, Keith Halliburton filed in the district court a motion asking the judge to 

compel the United States Attorney to file a motion for sentence reduction under Fed. R. 

Crim. P. 35(b). The district judge denied this motion summarily, and Halliburton has 

 

∗ This successive appeal has been submitted to the original panel under Operating Procedure 6(b). After

examining the briefs and the record, we have concluded that oral argument is unnecessary. See Fed. R.

App. P. 34(a); Cir. R. 34(f).

NONPRECEDENTIAL DISPOSITION

To be cited only in accordance with

Fed. R. App. P. 32.1
No. 07-3985 Page 2

appealed.

The motion is untimely. Rule 35(b)(1) allows the United States to propose a lower 

sentence only within the first year after a sentence has been imposed. There is an 

exception, see Rule 35(b)(2), for information that the defendant did not learn (or whose 

value could not be assessed) until the year had passed. Halliburton does not contend 

that his situation fits this exception. Instead he maintains that the United States 

promised to file a motion and did not carry through. Any shortcoming on that subject 

could have been raised long ago.

What is more, Wade v. United States, 504 U.S. 181 (1992), holds that a district court 

does not have authority to upset the prosecutor’s decision not to file a Rule 35(b) motion 

unless the defendant first makes a prima facie showing that the prosecutor acted for an 

unconstitutional reason. See also In re United States, 503 F.3d 638 (7th Cir. 2007). 

Halliburton has not tried to show this. Instead he believes that the prosecutor must 

provide the district judge with a good reason not to file a motion. That contention is 

incompatible with Wade.

AFFIRMED
Site Eligibility for Critical Infrastructure Protection Funding

As part of the FY 2003 SHSGP II (critical infrastructure funds) and the FY 2003

UASI II (operational costs), funding is being provided to pay for costs associated

with increased security measures at critical infrastructure sites during the period

of heightened threat alert of December 21, 2003 to January 9, 2004. States and

local governments should generally consider critical infrastructure to include any

system or asset that if attacked would result in catastrophic loss of life and/or

catastrophic economic loss. In addition, protection for the following specific types

of facilities should also be considered:

• Protective security enhancements for large public gatherings/areas such

as New Year’s Eve celebrations, sporting events and outdoor concerts

• Public water systems serving large population centers

• Primary data storage and processing facilities, major stock exchanges and

major banking centers

• Chemical facilities located in close proximity to large population centers

• Major power generation facilities that exceed 2000MW and if successfully

attacked would disrupt the regional electric grid

• Hydroelectric facilities and dams that produce power in excess of

2000MW or could result in catastrophic loss of life if breached

• Nuclear Power plants

• Electric substations 500KV or larger, and substations 345KV or larger that

are part of a critical system supporting populations in excess of one million

people

• Rail and highway bridges over major waterways that, if destroyed, would

cause catastrophic economic loss

• Major highway tunnels under waterways that if attacked would cause

catastrophic loss of life or catastrophic economic impact

• Major natural gas transmission pipelines in excess of 3000 bcf throughput

• Natural Gas and liquid Natural Gas Storage (LNG) facilities

• Major petroleum handling facilities such as pipelines, ports, refineries and

terminals
• Major mass transit subway systems and the supporting ventilation

systems

• Telecommunications, internet, and cyber facilities

# 									Actions Against Opposition Members in Zimbabwe							

Press Statement

Ned Price, Department Spokesperson

March 22, 2021

The United States is following events in Zimbabwe closely, including the troubling moves on March 17 to strip Movement for Democratic Change Alliance (MDC Alliance) Vice President Tendai Biti and other MDC Alliance members of their elected seats in parliament.

Since March 2020, parliamentary maneuvers supported by the Zimbabwean government have led to the ouster of 39 MDC Alliance MPs and 81 local elected officials.  These actions subvert the will of voters, further undermine democracy, and deny millions of Zimbabwean citizens their chosen representation.

We continue to monitor efforts by the government to dismantle the MDC Alliance through the arrest and detention of its leaders and diversion of its assets.  We also note the government’s selective enforcement of COVID-19 regulations to indefinitely postpone by-elections and prohibit MDC Alliance gatherings, while permitting internal elections and gatherings for the ruling Zimbabwe African National Union – Patriotic Front (ZANU–PF) party and its allies to go forward.

The ZANU–PF is misusing the levers of government to silence critics, neutralize opposition, and entrench its political power over the Zimbabwean people.

We call on the Government of Zimbabwe to comply with its obligation to respect the freedoms of expression and association enshrined in Zimbabwe’s constitution and its international commitments.

HomeOffice of the SpokespersonPress Releases...Authorizing Specified Economic Activities in Non-Regime Held Areas of Northeast and Northwest Syria in Support of D-ISIS Efforts

# 									Authorizing Specified Economic Activities in Non-Regime Held Areas of Northeast and Northwest Syria in Support of D-ISIS Efforts							

Press Statement

Ned Price, Department Spokesperson

May 12, 2022

The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) today issued Syria General License (GL) 22, authorizing specific economic activities in certain non-regime-held areas of northeast and northwest Syria.  This new authorization supports the Biden Administration’s strategy to defeat ISIS by promoting economic stabilization in areas liberated from the terrorist group’s control.  It comes on the heels of the D-ISIS Ministerial in Marrakesh, Morocco, where the United States announced nearly $110 million in stabilization funds for areas liberated from ISIS in Iraq and Syria and stressed the importance of continued Coalition efforts to erode support for violent extremism through initiatives designed to improve stability. The authorization does not permit any activity with the Government of Syria or other sanctioned persons.

Stabilization efforts – including restoring essential services, bolstering livelihood opportunities to help Syrians return to normal life, and providing support for individuals returning from displacement as well as the communities receiving them – are critical components of our Defeat-ISIS strategy.  Syria GL 22 complements these efforts by authorizing activities in the following economic sectors in specified non-regime-held areas of Syria:  agriculture; information and telecommunications; power grid infrastructure; construction; finance; clean energy; transportation and warehousing; water and waste management; health services; education; manufacturing; and trade. Through Syria GL 22, increased commercial activity and investment in these areas will reduce the likelihood of ISIS’s resurgence by combatting the conditions that enable its recruitment efforts and its support networks.

This authorization does not indicate any shift in the Administration’s policy towards the Assad regime.  The United States is not lifting or waiving sanctions imposed on the Assad regime and its cronies, as we continue to push for accountability in Syria.  Neither are we lifting any sanctions imposed on designated terrorist organizations.  The Administration will not normalize relations with the Assad regime and does not support others normalizing relations until there is irreversible progress toward a political resolution to the conflict in line with UNSCR 2254. We have not seen such progress.  We continue to oppose reconstruction directed by or for the benefit of the regime.

For more information on Syria GL 22 and associated guidance, please see OFAC’s Syria Sanctions Page.

#### UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Tehra HANON, Defendant-Appellant.

No. 00-30126.

D.C. No. CR-99-00131-EFS.

United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

Submitted Feb. 9, 2001.*

Decided Feb. 14, 2001.

Before RYMER, THOMAS, and MCKEOWN, Circuit Judges.

*

 The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument. *See*Fed. R.App. P. 34(a)(2).

MEMORANDUM **

Tehra Hanon appeals her conviction for violations of 36 C.F.R. § 2.32(a)(1), 36 *377C.F.R. § 2.32(a)(2), and 36 C.F.R. § 4.2. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm. Because the parties are familiar with the factual and procedural history of this case, we will not recount it here.

I

The district court correctly determined that the citations did not violate Hanon’s Sixth Amendment rights by failing to inform her of the nature and cause of the charges. “A defendant can be adequately notified of the nature and cause of the accusation against him by means other than the charging document.” *Calderon v. Prunty,*59 F.3d 1005, 1009 (9th Cir.1995). *See also Morrison v. Estelle,*981 F.2d 425, 427 (9th Cir.1992); *Sheppard v. Rees,*909 F.2d 1234, 1236 n. 2 (9th Cir.1989). Here, the defendant was put on notice of the factual allegations supporting the citations well before trial. Thus, she was able to prepare her defense without being prejudiced or surprised at trial as to the allegations or theories against her. Her Sixth Amendment rights were not infringed.

II

The district court also did not err in determining that the investigatory stop and administration of the field sobriety tests was based on reasonable suspicion. “Reasonable suspicion” means “specific, articulable facts which, together with objective and reasonable inferences, form the basis for suspecting that the particular person detained is engaged in criminal activity.” *United States v. Garcia-Camacho,*53 F.3d 244, 246 (9th Cir.1995).

In this case, officers approached Hanon because she was parked in a “No Camping” parking lot in a vehicle covered with blankets. The Ranger investigating the potential camping violation saw Hanon exit her car in a fumbling manner and walk in a slow, staggering and swaying manner. He noted that she appeared disconnected; that her pupils did not respond to light and that her eyelids were droopy. She consented to three field sobriety tests. She exhibited four of the six signs for a positive horizontal gaze nystagmus test; three of eight signs on the “nine step walk and turn” test, and had various problems with the “one legged stand” test. Before the Ranger could administer a blood alcohol test, she got into her car, yelled an expletive and drove away. The district court did not err in determining that reasonable suspicion existed for the officers to approach Hanon, to conduct field sobriety tests and to stop her when she fled the scene.

AFFIRMED.
