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.

Background 

In this rule, OFAC is updating 35 

parts of 31 CFR chapter V to clarify 

OFAC’s processes when it issues certain 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with RULES1
75956 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 180 / Tuesday, September 17, 2024 / Rules and Regulations 

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. 

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 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with RULES1
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 180 / Tuesday, September 17, 2024 / Rules and Regulations 75957 

1OFAC’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). 

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 

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.
