[Public Notice 8144]


In the Matter of the Designation of Abdelbasit Alhaj Alhassan Haj 
Hamad, Also Known as Abd Al-Basit, Also Known as Abdelbaset Alhaj 
Alhassan, Also Known as Abdel Basit Hag El-Hassan Hag Mohamed, Also 
Known as Abd-al-Basit Al-Hadj Hasan, Also Known as Abdel Basit al-Hajj 
Hassan, as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist Pursuant to Section 
1(b) of Executive Order 13224, as Amended

    Acting under the authority of and in accordance with section 1(b) 
of Executive Order 13224 of September 23, 2001, as amended by Executive 
Order 13268 of July 2, 2002, and Executive Order 13284 of January 23, 
2003, I hereby determine that the individual known as Abdelbasit Alhaj 
Alhassan Haj Hamad, also known as Abd Al-Basit, also known as 
Abdelbaset Alhaj Alhassan, also known as Abdel Basit Hag El-Hassan Hag 
Mohamed, also known as Abd-al-Basit Al-Hadj Hasan, and also known as 
Abdel Basit al-Hajj Hassan committed, or poses 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.
    Consistent with the determination in Section 10 of Executive Order 
13224 that ``prior notice to persons 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 because of the ability to transfer funds instantaneously,'' I 
determine that no prior notice needs to be provided to any person 
subject to this determination who might have a constitutional presence 
in the United States, because to do so would render ineffectual the 
measures authorized in the Order.
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register.

    Dated: December 18, 2012.
Hillary Rodham Clinton,
Secretary of State.
