Background
On September 23, 2001, the President issued Executive Order 13224

Act, 50 U.S.C. 1701-1706, and the United Nations Participation Act of
1945, 22 U.S.C. 287c, imposing economic sanctions on persons who
commit, threaten to commit, or support acts of terrorism. The President
identified in the Annex to the Order various individuals and entities
as subject to the economic sanctions. The Order authorizes the
Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State,
the Attorney General, and (pursuant to Executive Order 13284) the
Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, to designate
additional persons or entities determined to meet certain criteria set
forth in Executive Order 13224.
On September 5, 2003 and on November 10, 2003, two additional
individuals were designated by the Secretary of the Treasury. The
Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control has
determined that these two individuals no longer meet the criteria for
designation under the Order and are appropriate for removal from the
list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons.
