Background

    On October 21, 1995, the President issued Executive Order 12978 
(the ``Order'') pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers 
Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706), the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 
et seq.), and section 301 of title 3, United States Code.
    In the Order, the President declared a national emergency to 
address actions of significant foreign narcotics traffickers centered 
in Colombia, and the unparalleled violence, corruption, and harm that 
they cause in the United States and abroad. The Order imposes economic 
sanctions on foreign persons who are determined to play a significant 
role in international narcotics trafficking centered in Colombia; or 
materially to assist in, or provide financial or technological support 
for goods or services in support of, the narcotics trafficking 
activities of persons designated in or pursuant to the order; or to be 
owned or controlled by, or to act for or on behalf of, persons 
designated in or pursuant to the Order.
    The Order included 4 individuals in the Annex, which resulted in 
the blocking of all property or interests in property of these persons 
that was or thereafter came within the United States or the possession 
or control of U.S. persons. The Order authorizes the Secretary of the 
Treasury, in consultation with the Attorney General and the Secretary 
of State, to designate additional persons or entities determined to 
meet certain criteria set forth in EO 12978.
    On February 2, 2007, the Director of OFAC removed from the list of 
Specially Designated Narcotics Traffickers the individuals and entity 
listed below, whose property and interests in property were blocked 
pursuant to EO 12978.
