[Public Notice: 10333]


E.O. 13224 Designation of ISIS-Somalia, aka Islamic State in 
Somalia, aka ISS, aka ISIS in East Africa, aka Abnaa ul-Calipha as a 
Specially Designated Global Terrorist

    Acting under the authority of and in accordance with section 1(b) 
of Executive Order 13224 of September 23,

[[Page 8730]]

2001, as amended by Executive Order 13268 of July 2, 2002, and 
Executive Order 13284 of January 23, 2003, I hereby determine that the 
person known as ISIS-Somalia, also known as Islamic State in Somalia, 
also known as ISS, also known as ISIS in East Africa, also known as 
Abnaa ul-Calipha, 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: October 31, 2017.
Rex W. Tillerson,
 Secretary of State.

    Editorial note:  This document was received for publication by 
the Office of the Federal Register on February 22, 2018.
