SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background and Purpose

    The authority for this notice is 5 U.S.C. 552(a), 46 U.S.C. 70110 
(``Maritime Transportation Security Act''), and Department of Homeland 
Security Delegation No. 00170.1(II)(97)(f), Revision No. 01.4. As 
delegated, 46 U.S.C. 70110(a) authorizes the Coast Guard to impose 
conditions of entry on vessels arriving in U.S. waters from ports that 
the Coast Guard has not found to maintain effective anti-terrorism 
measures.
    The Coast Guard finds that ports in the Republic of Sudan fail to 
maintain effective anti-terrorism measures and that the Republic of 
Sudan's designated authority's oversight, access control, security 
monitoring, security training programs, and security plans drills and 
exercises are all deficient. For these reasons, the Coast Guard 
announces that it will impose conditions of entry on vessels arriving 
from the country of the Republic of Sudan. Conditions of entry are 
intended to protect the United States from vessels arriving from 
countries that have been found to have deficient port anti-terrorism 
measures in place.
    With this notice, the current list of countries assessed and not 
maintaining effective anti-terrorism measures is as follows: Cambodia, 
Cameroon, Comoros, Djibouti, Equatorial Guinea, The Gambia, Guinea-
Bissau, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Madagascar, Micronesia, Nauru, Nigeria, Sao 
Tome and Principe, Seychelles, Sudan, Syria, Timor-Leste, Venezuela, 
Yemen. The current Port Security Advisory is available at: http://www.dco.uscg.mil/Our-Organization/Assistant-Commandant-for-Prevention-Policy-CG-5P/International-Domestic-Port-Assessment/.

    Dated: September 30, 2024.
Laura M. Dickey,
Rear Admiral, Deputy Commandant for Operations, Acting, U.S. Coast 
Guard.
