SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background and Purpose
The authority for this notice is 5 U.S.C. 552(a) (``Administrative
Procedure Act''), 46 U.S.C. 70110 (``Maritime Transportation Security
Act of 2002''), and Department of Homeland Security Delegation No.
00170.1, Revision No. 01.3 (II)(97.f). As delegated, section 70110(a)
authorizes the Coast Guard to impose conditions of entry on vessels
arriving in U.S. waters from ports that the Coast Guard has not found
to maintain effective anti-terrorism measures.
In 2011, the Coast Guard determined that effective anti-terrorism
measures were not in place in the ports of Cote d'Ivoire. Accordingly,
conditions of entry were imposed on vessels arriving from Cote
d'Ivoire. Based on recent assessments, the Coast Guard has determined
that Cote d'Ivoire is maintaining effective anti-terrorism measures,
and the Coast Guard is, accordingly, removing the conditions of entry
announced in previously published Notices. With this notice, the
current list of countries assessed and not maintaining effective anti-
terrorism measures is as follows: Cambodia, Cameroon, Comoros,
Djibouti, Equatorial Guinea, The Gambia, Guinea-Bissau, Iran, Iraq,
Libya, Madagascar, Micronesia, Nauru, Nigeria, Republic of Seychelles,
Sao Tome and Principe, Syria, Timor-Leste, Venezuela, and Yemen. The
current Port Security Advisory is available at: <a href="http://www.dco.uscg.mil/Our-Organization/Assistant-Commandant-for-Prevention-Policy-CG-5P/International-Domestic-Port-Assessment/">http://www.dco.uscg.mil/Our-Organization/Assistant-Commandant-for-Prevention-Policy-CG-5P/International-Domestic-Port-Assessment/</a>.
