DEPARTMENT OF STATE 

[Public Notice: 9112] 

In the Matter of the Designation of 

Christodoulos Xiros as a Specially 

Designated Global Terrorist Pursuant 

to Section 1(b) of Executive Order 

13224, as Amended 

Acting under the authority of and in 

accordance with section 1(b) of E.O. 

13224 of September 23, 2001, as 

amended by E.O. 13268 of July 2, 2002, 

and E.O. 13284 of January 23, 2003, I 

hereby determine that the individual 

known as Christodoulos Xiros 

committed, or poses a significant risk of 

committing, acts of terrorism that 

threaten the security of U.S. nationals or 

the national security, foreign policy, or 

economy of the United States. 

Consistent with the determination in 

section 10 of E.O. 13224 that ‘‘prior 

notice to persons determined to be 

subject to the Order who might have a 

constitutional presence in the United 

States would render ineffectual the 

blocking and other measures authorized 

in the Order because of the ability to 

transfer funds instantaneously,’’ I 

determine that no prior notice needs to 

be provided to any person subject to this 

determination who might have a 

constitutional presence in the United 

States, because to do so would render 

ineffectual the measures authorized in 

the Order. 

This notice shall be published in the 

Federal Register. 

Dated: April 20, 2015. 

John F. Kerry, 

Secretary of State.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: State Right-of-Way Operations 

Manuals. 

Background: It is the responsibility of 

each State Department of Transportation 

(State) to acquire, manage and dispose 

of real property in compliance with the 

legal requirements of State and Federal 

laws and regulations. Part of providing 

assurance of compliance is to describe 

in a right-of-way procedural (operations) 

manual the organization, policies and 

procedures of the State to such an extent 

that these guide State employees, local 

acquiring agencies, and contractors who 

acquire and manage real property that is 

used for a federally funded 

transportation project. Procedural 

manuals assure the FHWA that the 

requirements of the Uniform Relocation 

Assistance and Real Property 

Acquisition Policies Act (Uniform Act) 

will be met. The State responsibility to 

prepare and maintain an up-to-date 

right-of-way procedural manual is set 

out in 23 CFR 710.201(c). Due to the 

amending of 23 CFR 710 regulations, a 

lengthy and in-depth update of each 

manual will be required. The revisions 

are prompted by enactment of the 

Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st 

Century Act (MAP–21). The regulation 

allows States flexibility in determining 

how to meet the manual requirement. 

This flexibility allows States to prepare 

manuals in the format of their choosing, 

to the level of detail necessitated by 

State complexities. Each State decides 

how it will provide service to 

individuals and businesses affected by 

Federal or federally-assisted projects, 

while at the same time reducing the 

burden of government regulation. States 

are required to update manuals to reflect 

changes in Federal requirements for 

programs administered under title 23 

U.S.C. The State manuals may be 

submitted to FHWA electronically or 

made available by posting on the State 

Web site. 

Respondents: 52 State Departments of 

Transportation, including the District of 

Columbia and Puerto Rico. 

Frequency: A one-time collection due 

to regulatory revisions. Then States 

update their manuals on an annually 

basis and certify every 5 years. 

FHWA estimates that the State DOTs 

will use 11,700 hours for completing, 

revising, updating, and reviewing the 

manuals. Approximately 52 State 

entities will update manuals at 225 

hours each. Preparing the updates for 52 

manuals × 225 hours = 11,700 burden 

hours. 

FHWA estimates that there are two 

additional DOT modes that have 50 of 

their large grantees that have Right-ofWay manuals that will need to be 

updated. It is estimated that both modes 

together will use a total of 22,500 hours 

for completing, revising, updating, and 

reviewing the manuals. Approximately 

50 grantees × 2 modes = 100 grantees 

will update manuals at 225 hours each. 

100 manuals × 225 hours = 22,500 

burden hours. 

FHWA estimates that there are 12 

additional federal agencies that will 

need their grantees to revise their 

guidance. These agencies have a 

disparate level of activity and program 

sizes ranging from large to very small. 

It is estimated that these grantees will 

use a total of 2,700 hours for 

completing, revising, updating, and 

reviewing their guidance. 

Approximately 12 grantees will update 

guidance at 225 hours each. 12 manuals 

× 225 hours = 2,700 burden hours. 

It is estimated a total of 36,900 burden 

hours will be required for completing, 

revising, updating, and reviewing 

manuals/guidance on a one-time basis. 

Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act 

of 1995; 44 U.S.C. chapter 35, as amended; 

and 49 CFR 1.48.
