In the Matter of the Designation of Ansar al-Shari'a in Darnah; 
Also Known as Supporters of Islamic Law; Also Known as Ansar al-Sharia 
in Derna; Also Known as Ansar al-Sharia in Libya; Also Known as Ansar 
al-Sharia; Also Known as Ansar al-Sharia Brigade in Darnah; as a 
Specially Designated Global Terrorist Pursuant to Section 1(b) of 
Executive Order 13224, as Amended

    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 entity known as Ansar al-Shari'a in 
Darnah, also known as Supporters of Islamic Law, also known as Ansar 
al-Sharia in Derna, also known as Ansar al-Sharia in Libya, also known 
as Ansar al-Sharia, also known as Ansar al-Sharia Brigade in Darnah, 
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: December 31, 2013.
John F. Kerry,
Secretary of State.
