[Public Notice: 10331]


E.O. 13224 Designation of ISIS-West Africa (ISIS-WA), aka ISIS 
West Africa, aka ISIS West Africa Province, aka Islamic State of Iraq 
and Syria West Africa Province, aka Islamic State of Iraq and the 
Levant-West Africa (ISIL-WA), aka Islamic State West Africa Province 
(ISWAP) as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist

    Acting under the authority of and in accordance with section 1(b) 
of Executive Order 13224 of September 23, 2001, as amended by Executive 
Order 13268 of July 2, 2002, and Executive Order 13284 of January 23, 
2003, I hereby determine that the person known as ISIS-West Africa 
(ISIS-WA), also known as ISIS West Africa, also known as ISIS West 
Africa Province, also known as Islamic State of Iraq and Syria West 
Africa Province, also known as Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant-
West Africa (ISIL-WA), also known as Islamic State West Africa Province 
(ISWAP) committed, or poses a significant risk of committing, acts of 
terrorism that threaten the security of U.S. nationals or the national 
security, foreign policy, or economy of the United States.
    Consistent with the determination in section 10 of Executive Order 
13224 that prior notice to persons determined to be subject to the 
Order who might have a constitutional presence in the United States 
would render ineffectual the blocking and other measures authorized in 
the Order because of the ability to transfer funds instantaneously, I 
determine that no prior notice needs to be provided to any person 
subject to this determination who might have a constitutional presence 
in the United States, because to do so would render ineffectual the 
measures authorized in the Order.
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register.

     Dated: September 13, 2017.
Rex Tillerson,
Secretary of State.

    Editorial Note: This document was received by the Office of the
