highways that encircle the St. Louis area 

will enable CBP to more efficiently 

utilize its personnel, facilities, and 

resources, and to provide better service 

to carriers, importers, and the general 

public. The port of entry description of 

St. Louis, Missouri, will be revised as 

proposed in the NPRM. 

III. Port Description of St. Louis, 

Missouri 

The port limits of St. Louis, Missouri, 

are as follows: Beginning at the point 

where Federal Interstate Highway 270 

crosses the Mississippi River; thence 

west, southwest, south and southeast, 

along Federal Interstate Highway 270 to 

the point where it becomes Federal 

Interstate Highway 255; thence 

southeast on Federal Interstate Highway 

255 across the Mississippi River; thence 

north and east to the point where 

Federal Interstate Highway 255 

intersects with Federal Interstate 

Highway 270; thence west along Federal 

Interstate Highway 270 to the 

Mississippi River, the point of 

beginning. 

IV. Authority 

This change is made under the 

authority of 5 U.S.C. 301; 19 U.S.C. 2, 

66, and 1624; and 6 U.S.C. 203. 

V. Statutory and Regulatory Reviews 

A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory 

Planning and Review 

This rule is not considered to be an 

economically significant regulatory 

action under Executive Order 12866, 

because it will not result in the 

expenditure of over $100 million in any 

one year. The change is intended to 

expand the geographical boundaries of 

the Port of St. Louis, Missouri, and 

make it more easily identifiable to the 

public. There are no new costs to the 

public associated with this rule. 

Accordingly, this rule has not been 

reviewed by the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) under Executive 

Order 12866. 

B. Regulatory Flexibility Act 

The Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 

U.S.C. 601 et seq.) requires Federal 

agencies to examine the impact a rule 

would have on small entities. A small 

entity may be a small business (defined 

as any independently owned and 

operated business not dominant in its 

field that qualifies as a small business 

per the Small Business Act), a small notfor-profit organization, or a small 

governmental jurisdiction (locality with 

fewer than 50,000 people). 

This rule does not directly regulate 

small entities. The change is part of 

CBP’s continuing program to more 

efficiently utilize its personnel, 

facilities, and resources, and to provide 

better service to carriers, importers, and 

the general public. To the extent that all 

entities are able to more efficiently or 

conveniently access the facilities and 

resources within the expanded 

geographical area of the new port limits, 

this rule should confer benefits to CBP, 

carriers, importers, and the general 

public. 

Because this rule does not directly 

regulate small entities, CBP certifies that 

this rule does not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities. 

VI. Signing Authority 

The signing authority for this 

document falls under 19 CFR 0.2(a), 

because the port extension is not within 

the bounds of those regulations for 

which the Secretary of the Treasury has 

retained sole authority. Accordingly, 

this final rule may be signed by the 

Secretary of Homeland Security (or his 

or her delegate).

Regulations 

AGENCY: Office of Foreign Assets 

Control, Treasury. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Office of Foreign Assets 

Control of the U.S. Department of the 

Treasury (‘‘OFAC’’) is amending the 

Terrorism List Governments Sanctions 

Regulations so that the schedule to 

which a prohibition section refers lists 

those countries that are currently 

designated as supporting international 

terrorism, instead of the countries that 

were designated as of the effective date 

of these regulations. This amendment 

also removes Iraq, Libya, and North 

Korea from the schedule, because these 

countries are no longer designated as 

state sponsors of terrorism. 

DATES: Effective Date: May 18, 2009.

Background 

Section 321 of the Antiterrorism and 

Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, 18 

U.S.C. 2332d (the ‘‘Act’’), makes it a 

criminal offense for United States 

persons, except as provided in 

regulations issued by the Secretary of 

the Treasury in consultation with the 

Secretary of State, to engage in financial 

transactions with the governments of 

countries designated under section 6(j) 

of the Export Administration Act of 

1979, 50 U.S.C. App. 2405(j) (the 

‘‘EAA’’), as supporting international 

terrorism. To implement section 321 of 

the Act, OFAC promulgated the 

Terrorism List Governments Sanctions 

Regulations, 31 CFR part 596 (the 


cprice-sewell on PRODPC61 with RULES
23112 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 94 / Monday, May 18, 2009 / Rules and Regulations 

‘‘Regulations’’), effective August 22, 

1996. 61 FR 43462 (Aug. 23, 1996). 

Section 596.201 of the Regulations 

provides that, except as authorized by 

regulations, orders, directives, licenses, 

or otherwise, no United States person, 

knowing or having reasonable cause to 

know that a country is designated under 

section 6(j) of the EAA as a country 

supporting international terrorism, shall 

engage in a financial transaction with 

the government of such country. A 

schedule following section 596.201 

listed those countries that were 

designated under section 6(j) as of the 

effective date of the Regulations (i.e., as 

of August 22, 1996). Since that date, the 

Secretary of State has issued Public 

Notices rescinding the designations of 

Iraq [69 FR 61702 (Oct. 20, 2004)], Libya 

[71 FR 39696 (July 13, 2006)], and North 

Korea [73 FR 63540 (Oct. 24, 2008)]. 

Accordingly, OFAC is amending section 

596.201 of the Regulations so that the 

schedule that follows in new paragraph 

(b) of this section lists countries that are 

designated under section 6(j) as 

supporting international terrorism as of 

May 18, 2009. The schedule itself is 

being updated by the removal of Iraq, 

Libya, and North Korea, which are no 

longer so designated. 

Public Participation 

Because the amendment of the 

Regulations involves a foreign affairs 

function, the provisions of Executive 

Order 12866 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.
