credit for any project controlled by an energy producer or refiner 
that continues to: (A) Provide Iran with significant refined 
petroleum resources; (B) materially contribute to Iran's capability 
to import refined petroleum resources; or (C) allow Iran to maintain 
or expand, in any material respect, its domestic production of 
refined petroleum resources, including any assistance in refinery 
construction, modernization, or repair.

See Sec. 7043 of the Act.
    The Act is effectively immediately and applies to all
