Appendix A to Part 570 - Executive Order 13566 Executive Order
13566 of February 25, 2011 Blocking Property and Prohibiting
Certain Transactions Related to Libya
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution
and the laws of the United States of America, including the
International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et
seq.) (IEEPA), the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601
et seq.) (NEA), and section 301 of title 3, United States
Code, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America,
find that Colonel Muammar Qadhafi, his government, and close
associates have taken extreme measures against the people of Libya,
including by using weapons of war, mercenaries, and wanton violence
against unarmed civilians. I further find that there is a serious
risk that Libyan state assets will be misappropriated by Qadhafi,
members of his government, members of his family, or his close
associates if those assets are not protected. The foregoing
circumstances, the prolonged attacks, and the increased numbers of
Libyans seeking refuge in other countries from the attacks, have
caused a deterioration in the security of Libya and pose a serious
risk to its stability, thereby constituting an unusual and
extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of
the United States, and I hereby declare a national emergency to
deal with that threat.
I hereby order:
Section 1. All property and interests in property that
are in the United States, that hereafter come within the United
States, or that are or hereafter come within the possession or
control of any United States person, including any overseas branch,
of the following persons are blocked and may not be transferred,
paid, exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in:
(a) The persons listed in the Annex to this order; and
(b) Any person determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in
consultation with the Secretary of State:
(i) To be a senior official of the Government of Libya;
(ii) To be a child of Colonel Muammar Qadhafi;
(iii) To be responsible for or complicit in, or responsible for
ordering, controlling, or otherwise directing, or to have
participated in, the commission of human rights abuses related to
political repression in Libya;
(iv) To have materially assisted, sponsored, or provided
financial, material, logistical, or technical support for, or goods
or services in support of the activities described in subsection
(b)(iii) of this section or any person whose property and interests
in property are blocked pursuant to this order;
(v) To be owned or controlled by, or to have acted or purported
to act for or on behalf of, any person whose property and interests
in property are blocked pursuant to this order; or
(vi) To be a spouse or dependent child of any person whose
property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this
order.
Sec. 2. All property and interests in property that are
in the United States, that hereafter come within the United States,
or that are or hereafter come within the possession or control of
any United States person, including any overseas branch, of the
Government of Libya, its agencies, instrumentalities, and
controlled entities, and the Central Bank of Libya, are blocked and
may not be transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn, or otherwise
dealt in.
Sec. 3. For those persons whose property and interests in
property are blocked pursuant to this order who might have a
constitutional presence in the United States, I find that because
of the ability to transfer funds or other assets instantaneously,
prior notice to such persons of measures to be taken pursuant to
this order would render those measures ineffectual. I therefore
determine that for these measures to be effective in addressing the
national emergency declared in this order, there need be no prior
notice of a listing or determination made pursuant to section 1 of
this order.
Sec. 4. I hereby determine that, to the extent section
203(b)(2) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(2)) may apply, the making of
donations of the type of articles specified in such section by, to,
or for the benefit of any person whose property and interests in
property are blocked pursuant to sections 1 and 2 of this order
would seriously impair my ability to deal with the national
emergency declared in this order, and I hereby prohibit such
donations as provided by sections 1 and 2 of this order.
Sec. 5. The prohibitions in sections 1 and 2 of this
order include but are not limited to:
(a) The making of any contribution or provision of funds, goods,
or services by, to, or for the benefit of any person whose property
and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order;
and
(b) The receipt of any contribution or provision of funds,
goods, or services from any such person.
Sec. 6. The prohibitions in sections 1 and 2 of this
order apply except to the extent provided by statutes, or in
regulations, orders, directives, or licenses that may be issued
pursuant to this order, and notwithstanding any contract entered
into or any license or permit granted prior to the effective date
of this order.
Sec. 7. (a) Any transaction by a United States person or
within the United States that evades or avoids, has the purpose of
evading or avoiding, causes a violation of, or attempts to violate
any of the prohibitions set forth in this order is prohibited.
(b) Any conspiracy formed to violate any of the prohibitions set
forth in this order is prohibited.
Sec. 8. Nothing in this order shall prohibit transactions
for the conduct of the official business of the Federal Government
by employees, grantees, or contractors thereof.
Sec. 9. For the purposes of this order:
(a) The term “person” means an individual or entity;
(b) The term “entity” means a partnership, association, trust,
joint venture, corporation, group, subgroup, or other organization;
and
(c) The term “United States person” means any United States
citizen or national, permanent resident alien, entity organized
under the laws of the United States or any jurisdiction within the
United States (including foreign branches), or any person in the
United States.
Sec. 10. The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation
with the Secretary of State, is hereby authorized to take such
actions, including the promulgation of rules and regulations, and
to employ all powers granted to the President by IEEPA as may be
necessary to carry out the purposes of this order. The Secretary of
the Treasury may redelegate any of these functions to other
officers and agencies of the United States Government consistent
with applicable law. All agencies of the United States Government
are hereby directed to take all appropriate measures within their
authority to carry out the provisions of this order.
Sec. 11. The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation
with the Secretary of State, is hereby authorized to determine that
circumstances no longer warrant the blocking of the property and
interests in property of a person listed in the Annex to this
order, and to take necessary action to give effect to that
determination.
Sec. 12. The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation
with the Secretary of State, is hereby authorized to submit the
recurring and final reports to the Congress on the national
emergency declared in this order, consistent with section 401(c) of
the NEA (50 U.S.C. 1641(c)) and section 204(c) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C.
1703(c)).
Sec. 13. This order is not intended to, and does not,
create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable
at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its
departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or
agents, or any other person.
Sec. 14. This order is effective at 8 p.m. eastern
standard time on February 25, 2011.
