SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On September 23, 2001, President Bush issued Executive Order 13224 
(the ``Order'') imposing economic sanctions on persons (defined as 
including individuals or entities) who, inter alia, commit, threaten to 
commit, or support certain acts of terrorism. In an annex to the Order, 
President Bush identified 12 individuals and 15 entities whose assets 
are blocked pursuant to the Order (66 FR 49079, September 25, 2001). 
The property and interests in property of an additional 33 individuals 
and 6 entities were blocked pursuant to determinations by the Secretary 
of State and the Secretary of the Treasury (effective October 12, 
2001), referenced in a Federal Register Notice published by the Office 
of Foreign Assets Control, Department of the Treasury (66 FR 54404, 
October 26, 2001). Further determinations made by the Secretary of the 
Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State and the Attorney 
General, on November 7, 2001, and December 4, 2001, December 20, 2001, 
January 9, 2002, February 26, and March 11 are addressed in a separate 
notice published elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register.
    Pursuant to subsection 1(b) of the Order, the Secretary of State, 
in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury and the Attorney 
General, has determined to date that 8 foreign individuals and 29 
foreign organizations have been determined to have committed, or to 
pose a significant risk of committing, acts of terrorism that threaten 
the security of U.S. nationals or the national security, foreign 
policy, or economy of the United States. The Secretary of State's 
determination that each of these individuals and organizations meets 
the criteria set forth under subsection 1(b) of the Order subjects each 
of these individuals and organizations to sanctions. 23 of the 
organizations determined on October 31, 2001 and December 18, 2001 to 
meet the criteria set forth under subsection 1(b) of the Order are also 
subject to sanctions imposed pursuant to their designation as a Foreign 
Terrorist Organization pursuant to section 219 of the Immigration and 
Nationality Act, as amended, 8 U.S.C. 1189.
    Pursuant to the determination made by the Secretary of State under 
subsection 1(b) of the Order, all property and interests in property of 
any listed person that are in the United States, that come within the 
United States, or that come within the possession or control of United 
States persons, including their overseas branches, are blocked. All 
transactions or dealings by U.S. persons or within the United States in 
property or interests in property of any listed person are prohibited 
unless licensed by the Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign 
Assets Control or exempted by statute.
    The determinations of the Secretary of State were effective on 
October 12, 2001, October 31, 2001, December 18, 2001, and December 31, 
2001.
    In Section 10 of the Order, the President determined that because 
of the ability to transfer funds or assets instantaneously, prior 
notice to persons listed in the Annex to, or determined to be subject 
to, the Order who might have a constitutional presence in the United 
States, would render ineffectual the blocking and other measures 
authorized in the Order. The President therefore determined that for 
these measures to be effective in addressing the national emergency 
declared in the Order, no prior notification of a listing or 
determination pursuant to the Order need be provided to any person who 
might have a constitutional presence in the United States.
    The property and interests of property of the following persons are 
blocked and may not be transferred, paid, exported,
