SUMMARY: NOAA published a final rule 

to expand the boundary of Thunder Bay 

National Marine Sanctuary (TBNMS or 

sanctuary), clarify the correlation 

between TBNMS regulations and Indian 

tribal fishing activities, and revise the 

corresponding sanctuary terms of 

designation on September 5, 2014 (79 

FR 52960). The new boundary for 

TBNMS increases the size of the 

sanctuary from 448 square miles to 

4,300 square miles and extends 

protection to 47 additional known 

historic shipwrecks of national 

significance. Pursuant to Section 304(b)

Extension of Import Restrictions 

Imposed on Certain Categories of 

Archaeological Material From the PreHispanic Cultures of the Republic of El 

Salvador 

AGENCIES: U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection, Department of Homeland 

Security; Department of the Treasury. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This final rule amends U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 

regulations to reflect the extension of 

import restrictions on certain categories 

of archaeological material from the PreHispanic cultures of the Republic of El 

Salvador (El Salvador). The restrictions, 

which were originally imposed by 

Treasury Decision (T.D.) 95–20 and 

previously extended by T.D. 00–16, CBP 

Decision (CBP Dec.) 05–10 and CBP 

Dec. 10–01, are due to expire on March 

8, 2015, unless extended. The Assistant 

Secretary for Educational and Cultural 

Affairs, U.S. Department of State (State), 

has determined that conditions continue 

to warrant the imposition of import 

restrictions. Accordingly, these import 

restrictions will remain in effect for an 

additional five years, and the CBP 

regulations are being amended to reflect 

this extension until March 8, 2020. 

These restrictions are being extended 

pursuant to determinations of the U.S. 

Department of State made under the 

terms of the Convention on Cultural 

Property Implementation Act in 

accordance with the 1970 United 

Nations Educational, Scientific and 

Cultural Organization (UNESCO) 

Convention on the Means of Prohibiting 

and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export 

and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural 

Property. T.D. 95–20 contains the 

Designated List of archaeological 

material representing Pre-Hispanic 

cultures of El Salvador, and describes 

the articles to which the restrictions 

apply. 

DATES: Effective March 8, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Pursuant to the provisions of the 1970 

UNESCO Convention, codified into U.S. 

law as the Convention on Cultural 

Property Implementation Act (hereafter, 

the Cultural Property Implementation 

Act or the Act (Pub. L. 97–446, 19 

U.S.C. 2601 et seq.)), signatory nations 

(State Parties) may enter into bilateral or 

multilateral agreements to impose 

import restrictions on eligible 

archaeological and ethnological 

materials under procedures and 

requirements prescribed by the Act. 

Under the Act and applicable U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 

regulations (19 CFR 12.104g), the 

restrictions are effective for no more 

than five years beginning on the date on 

which the agreement enters into force 

with respect to the United States (19 

U.S.C. 2602(b)). This period may be 

extended for additional periods, each 

such period not to exceed five years, 

where it is determined that the factors 

justifying the initial agreement still 

pertain and no cause for suspension of 

the agreement exists (19 U.S.C. 2602(e); 

19 CFR 12.104g(a)). 

On March 8, 1995, the United States 

entered into a bilateral agreement with 

the Government of the Republic of El 

Salvador (El Salvador) concerning the 

imposition of import restrictions on 

certain categories of archaeological 

material from the Pre-Hispanic cultures 

of El Salvador. On March 10, 1995, the 

former U.S. Customs Service (now U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP)) 

published Treasury Decision (T.D.) 95– 

20 in the Federal Register (60 FR 

13352), which amended 19 CFR 

12.104g(a) to reflect the imposition of 

these restrictions and included a list 

designating the types of articles covered 

by the restrictions. 

Import restrictions listed in 19 CFR 

12.104g(a) are effective for no more than 

five years beginning on the date on 

which the agreement enters into force 

with respect to the United States. This 

period can be extended for additional 

periods not to exceed five years if it is 

determined that the factors which 

justified the initial agreement still 

pertain and no cause for suspension of 

the agreement exists. 19 CFR 12.104g(a). 

Since the initial notice was published 

on March 10, 1995, the import 

restrictions were subsequently extended 

three times. First, on March 9, 2000, the 

former U.S. Customs Service published 

T.D. 00–16 in the Federal Register (65 

FR 12470) to extend the import 

restrictions for an additional period of 

five years. Subsequently, on March 9, 

2005, CBP published CBP Dec. 05–10 in 

the Federal Register (70 FR 11539) to 

again extend the import restriction for 

five years. Most recently, on March 8, 

2010, CBP published CBP Dec. 10–01 in 

the Federal Register (75 FR 10411) to 

extend the import restriction for an 

additional five year period to March 8, 

2015. 

After reviewing the findings and 

recommendations of the Cultural 

Property Advisory Committee, and in 

response to a request by the Government 

of the Republic of El Salvador, on 

February 3, 2015, the Assistant 

Secretary for Educational and Cultural 

Affairs, U.S. Department of State, 

concluding that the cultural heritage of 

El Salvador continues to be in jeopardy 

from pillage of Pre-Hispanic 

archaeological resources, made the 

necessary determinations to extend the 

import restrictions for an additional five 

years. Diplomatic notes have been 

exchanged, reflecting the extension of 


rmajette on DSK2TPTVN1PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 44 / Friday, March 6, 2015 / Rules and Regulations 12081 

those restrictions. Accordingly, CBP is 

amending 19 CFR 12.104g(a) to reflect 

the extension of the import restrictions. 

The Designated List of Archaeological 

Material Representing Pre-Hispanic 

Cultures of El Salvador covered by these 

import restrictions is set forth in T.D. 

95–20. The Designated List and 

accompanying image database may also 

be accessed from the following Internet 

Web site address: http://

exchanges.state.gov/heritage/culprop/

esimage.html. 

The restrictions on the importation of 

these archaeological materials from El 

Salvador are to continue in effect for an 

additional five years. Importation of 

such material continues to be restricted 

unless the conditions set forth in 19 

U.S.C. 2606 and 19 CFR 12.104c are 

met. 

Inapplicability of Notice and Delayed 

Effective Date 

This amendment involves a foreign 

affairs function of the United States and 

is, therefore, being made without notice 

or public procedure (5 U.S.C. 553(a)(1)). 

For the same reasons, a delayed 

effective date is not required under 5 

U.S.C. 553(d)(3). 

Regulatory Flexibility Act 

Because no notice of proposed 

rulemaking is required, the provisions 

of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 

U.S.C. 601 et seq.) do not apply. 

Executive Order 12866 

Because this rule involves a foreign 

affairs function of the United States, it 

is not subject to Executive Order 12866. 

Signing Authority 

This regulation is being issued in 

accordance with 19 CFR 0.1(a)(1). 

List of Subjects in 19 CFR Part 12 

Cultural property, Customs duties and 

inspection, Imports, Prohibited 

merchandise. 

Amendment to CBP Regulations 

For the reasons set forth above, part 

12 of Title 19 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations (19 CFR part 12), is 

amended as set forth below: 

PART 12—SPECIAL CLASSES OF 

MERCHANDISE

Service of Process; Address Change 

AGENCY: Department of State. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This rulemaking changes the 

address for service of process on the 

Department of State. 

DATES: This rule is effective on March 6, 

2015. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Alice Kottmyer, Office of the Legal 

Adviser, Department of State; phone:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

rulemaking provides the new address, 

effective immediately, for the service on 

the U.S. Department of State of the 

documents or actions listed in 22 CFR 

172.1(a). 

Regulatory Findings 

Administrative Procedure Act 

This rule is published as a final rule, 

effective immediately, pursuant to 5 

U.S.C. 553(b) and 553(d)(3). The 

Department finds good cause for the 

immediate effect of the rule without 

notice and comment because public 

comment on an address change is 

unnecessary; and, more importantly, it 

is in the interest of the public for the 

Department to provide the correct 

address for service of process, and for it 

to be effective, as expeditiously as 

possible. 

Other Authorities 

(1) Since this rule is exempt from the 

rulemaking provisions of 5 U.S.C. 553, 

it does not require analysis under the 

Regulatory Flexibility Act. 

(2) This rulemaking does not meet the 

criteria for Department actions under 

the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 

1995; the Small Business Regulatory 

Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996; 

Executive Order 13175 (impact on 

tribes); or Executive Orders 12372 and 

13132 (federalism). This rulemaking is 

not a major rule as defined by 5 U.S.C. 

804. 

(3) In the view of the Department, this 

rule is not a significant regulatory action 

as defined in Executive Order 12866, 

and is consistent with the guidance in 

Executive Order 13563. The benefits of 

this rulemaking—in providing a current 

address for service of process— 

outweigh any costs.
