DEPARTMENT OF STATE

[Public Notice: 9332; No. 2014-4 ]


Determination

    The Foreign Missions Act (FMA), codified at 22 U.S.C. 4301-4316, 
authorizes the Secretary of State to approve the terms and conditions 
on which benefits are provided to foreign missions and to make 
compliance with those terms and conditions by foreign missions 
mandatory. 22 U.S.C. 4304(a), (b). Furthermore, the FMA provides that 
the ``[t]erms and conditions established by the Secretary under this 
section may include . . . a requirement to pay to the Secretary a 
surcharge or fee.'' 22 U.S.C. 4304(c)(1). The FMA also authorizes the 
Secretary to make any provision of the FMA applicable to international 
organizations (as defined in 22 U.S.C. 4309(b)) when the Secretary 
determines that such application is necessary to carry out the policy 
and objectives set forth in the FMA. 22 U.S.C. 4309(a).
    Therefore, pursuant to the authority vested in me by the FMA, in 
particular, 22 U.S.C. 4304(b), and Delegation of Authority No. 198 of 
September 16, 1992, I hereby determine that it is reasonably necessary 
to protect the interests of the United States to require foreign 
missions and international organizations, and, in each case, their 
staff members (each a ``Beneficiary'' and collectively, 
``Beneficiaries'') to pay a surcharge or fee in instances where a 
Beneficiary creates resource demands on the Office of Foreign Missions 
(OFM) by: (1) Requesting the replacement of OFM-issued products; (2) 
failing to comply with the Department's requirements relating to the 
acquisition or maintenance of liability insurance, license tags, or 
title and registration documents for motor vehicles, vessels, and 
aircraft; or (3) otherwise failing to comply with the terms on which 
the Department has required Beneficiaries to obtain or forego benefits 
under the FMA.
    The authority to regulate the provision of foreign mission benefits 
under the FMA has been delegated to the Director of OFM (Delegation of 
Authority No. 214, October 5, 1994).

[[Page 66105]]

Therefore, the rates, terms, and conditions associated with the 
imposition of surcharges or fees authorized herein may be established 
or revised at the Director's discretion.

    Dated: September 22, 2015.
Patrick F. Kennedy,
Under Secretary for Management.
