Office of Foreign Assets Control, Treasury. ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: The Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control
(OFAC)is amending its regulations in multiple sanctions programs to add, amend, or update general licenses authorizing official business of the United States government and official business of certain international organizations and entities, and update an interpretation explaining that the property and interests in property of an entity are blocked if one or more blocked persons own, whether individually or in the aggregate, directly or indirectly, a 50 percent or greater interest in the entity. Additionally, OFAC is updating the authority citation of several CFR parts to consolidate or shorten citations to conform to **Federal Register** requirements. DATES: This rule is effective December 21, 2022. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: OFAC: Assistant Director for Licensing, 202-622-2480; Assistant Director for Regulatory Affairs, 202-622-4855; or Assistant Director for Sanctions Compliance & Evaluation, 202-622-2490. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Electronic Availability This document and additional information concerning OFAC are available on OFAC's website ( *www.treas.gov/ofac* ). Background OFAC, in consultation with the Department of State, is amending regulations in multiple OFAC-administered sanctions programs to generally official business of the United States government, as well as official business of certain international organizations and entities, in multiple sanctions programs OFAC administers. Specifically, OFAC is amending regulations to add a general license authorizing official business of the United States government to the following parts of 31 CFR: 536, 539, 541, 544, 546, 547, 548, 549, 552, 555, 558, 560, 561, 562, 569, 576, 579, 583, 584, 594, 596, 597, and 598. Additionally, OFAC is updating the existing general licenses authorizing official business of the United States government in 31 CFR 510.513 and 542.522, as well as corresponding text in 31 CFR 510.213 and 542.211 to conform to current standards for OFAC general licenses. OFAC is also adding a general license authorizing official business of certain international organizations and entities to the following parts of 31 CFR: 536, 539, 541, 544, 546, 547, 548, 549, 555, 558, 561, 562, 569, 576, 579, 582, 583, 584, 585, 594, 596, 597, and 598. OFAC is also adding this general license to 31 CFR parts 525 and 591, incorporating into 31 CFR part 525 the existing Burma General License No. 2, which was previously issued on OFAC's website on March 25, 2021, and incorporating into 31 CFR part 591 the existing Venezuela General License No. 20B, which was previously issued on OFAC's website on January 21, 2020. OFAC is also adding this general license to 31 CFR parts 594 and 597, incorporating and expanding into both parts the authorization found in Counter Terrorism General License No. 1, which was previously issued on OFAC's website on April 12, 2006. The aforementioned web general licenses in parts 525, 591, 594, and 597 will be removed from OFAC's website upon final issuance of this rule. Finally, OFAC is updating the existing general license authorizing activities of certain international organizations in 31 CFR parts 510, 551, 552, and 560 to conform to current standards for OFAC general licenses. Based on the foreign policy considerations of each sanctions program, the general licenses may list different sets of international organizations across different programs, and some general licenses exclude funds transfers made with knowledge or reason to know they are intended for blocked persons, unless certain criteria are met. OFAC is also updating an interpretation in several regulations to explain that the property and interests in property of an entity are blocked if one or more blocked persons own, whether individually or in the aggregate, directly or indirectly, a 50 percent or greater interest in the entity, whether or not the entity itself is incorporated into OFAC's Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List (SDN List). This interpretation conforms with current OFAC guidance. The regulatory sections being updated with this interpretation are: §§ 541.411, 542.411, 544.411, 546.411, 548.411, 549.411, 558.406, 560.425, 562.406, 576.412, 584.410, 591.406, and 594.412. In addition, relevant cross-references in the notes to the following sections are also being updated: §§ 541.301, 542.301, 544.301, 546.302, 548.301, 549.301, 558.301, 560.322, 562.301, 576.301, and 591.301. Finally, OFAC is updating the authority citations of 31 CFR parts 555, 558, 562, 569, 579, 582, and 591 to consolidate or shorten citations to conform to **Federal Register** requirements or make other technical updates. Public Participation Because the regulations being amended involve a foreign affairs function, the provisions of Executive Order (E.O.) 12866 of September 30, 1993, “Regulatory Planning and Review” (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), and the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) requiring notice of proposed rulemaking, opportunity for public participation, and delay in effective date, are inapplicable. Because no notice of proposed rulemaking is required for this rule, the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612) does not apply. Paperwork Reduction Act The collections of information related to 31 CFR parts 510, 525, 536, 539, 541, 542, 544, 546, 547, 548, 549, 551, 552, 555, 558, 560, 561, 562, 569, 576, 579, 582, 583, 584, 585, 591, 594, 596, 597, and 598 are contained in 31 CFR part 501 (the “Reporting, Procedures and Penalties Regulations”). Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3507), those collections of information have been approved by the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB)under control number 1505-0164. The collection of information in 31 CFR 561.504(b) has been approved by OMB under control number 1505-0243. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless the collection of information displays a valid control number.
