DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND 

SECURITY 

Office of the Secretary 

Determination Pursuant to Section 102 

of the Illegal Immigration Reform and 

Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 

as Amended by Section 102 of the 

REAL ID Act of 2005 and as Amended 

by the Secure Fence Act of 2006 

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, 

Department of Homeland Security. 

ACTION: Notice of determination. 

SUMMARY: The Secretary of Homeland 

Security has determined, pursuant to 

law, that it is necessary to waive certain 

laws, regulations and other legal 

requirements in order to ensure the 

expeditious construction of physical 

barriers and roads in the vicinity of the 

international land border of the United 

States in Arizona. 

DATES: This Notice is effective on 

October 26, 2007. 

Determination and Waiver 

In section 102(a) of the Illegal 

Immigration Reform and Immigrant 

Responsibility Act of 1996, Public Law 

104–208, Div. C, 110 Stat. 3009–546, 

3009–554 (Sept. 30, 1996) (IIRIRA) (8 

U.S.C. 1103 note (2000)), Congress 

provided that the Attorney General shall 

take such actions as may be necessary 

to install additional physical barriers 

and roads (including the removal of 

obstacles to detection of illegal entrants) 

in the vicinity of the United States 

border to deter illegal crossings in areas 

of high illegal entry into the United 

States. Pursuant to sections 1511 and 

1517 of the Homeland Security Act of 

2002, Public Law 107–296, 116 Stat. 

2135, 2309, 2311 (Nov. 25, 2002) (HSA) 

(6 U.S.C. 551, 557), the authorities of the 

Attorney General contained in section 

102 of the IIRIRA were transferred to 

me. In section 102(c) of the IIRIRA, as 

amended by section 102 of the REAL ID 

Act of 2005, Public Law 109–13, Div. B, 

119 Stat. 231, 302, 306 (May 11, 2005) 

(REAL ID Act) (8 U.S.C. 1103 note), 

Congress granted to me the authority to 

waive all legal requirements that I, in 

my sole discretion, determine necessary 

to ensure the expeditious construction 

of barriers and roads under section 102 

of IIRIRA. 

I determine that the area in the 

vicinity of the United States border from 

approximately 4.75 miles west of the 

Naco, Arizona Port of Entry to the 

western boundary of the San Pedro 

Riparian National Conservation Area 

(SPRNCA) in southeastern Arizona 

including the lands covered by the 

Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) 

signed by Judge Ellen S. Huvelle on 

October 10, 2007, in the case of 

Defenders of Wildlife et al. v. Bureau of 

Land Management et al., Case 1:07–cv–

01801–ESH, is an area of high illegal 

entry. There is presently a need to 

construct fixed and mobile barriers 

(such as fencing, vehicle barriers, 

towers, sensors, cameras, and other 

surveillance, communication, and 

detection equipment) and roads in the 

vicinity of the border of the United 

States. In order to ensure the 

expeditious construction of the barriers 

and roads that Congress prescribed in 

the IIRIRA in the area starting 

approximately 4.75 miles west of the 

Naco, Arizona Port of Entry to the 

western boundary of the SPRNCA and 

any and all land covered by the TRO, 

which is an area of high illegal entry 

into the United States, I have 

determined that it is necessary that I 

exercise the authority that was 

transferred to me by sections 1511 and 

1517 of the HSA and that is vested in 

me by section 102(c) of the IIRIRA as 

amended by section 102 of the REAL ID 

Act. Accordingly, I hereby waive in 

their entirety, with respect to the 

construction of roads and fixed and 

mobile barriers (including, but not 

limited to, accessing the project area, 

the conduct of earthwork, excavation, 

fill, and site preparation, and 

installation and upkeep of fences, roads, 

supporting elements, drainage, erosion 

controls, safety features, surveillance, 

communication, and detection 

equipment of all types, radar and radio 

towers, and lighting) in the area starting 

approximately 4.75 miles west of the 

Naco, Arizona Port of Entry to the 

western boundary of the SPRNCA and 

any and all land covered by the TRO, all 

federal, state, or other laws, regulations 

and legal requirements of, deriving 

from, or related to the subject of, the 

following laws, as amended: The

U.S.C. 1531 et seq.)), the Federal Water 

Pollution Control Act (commonly

the Farmland Protection Policy Act (7 

U.S.C. 4201 et seq.) and the

make further waivers from time to time 

under the authority granted to me by 

section 102(c) of the IIRIRA, as amended 

by section 102 of the REAL ID Act, as 

I may determine to be necessary to 

accomplish the provisions of section 

102 of IIRIRA.
