 EO 13400 Title 3--The President or any jurisdiction within the United States (including foreign branches), or any person in the United States. Sec. 4. For those persons designated pursuant to this order who might have a constitutional presence in the United States, I find that, because of the ability to transfer funds or other assets instantaneously, prior notice to such persons of measures to be taken pursuant to this order would render these measures ineffectual. I therefore determine that for these measures to be ef- fective in addressing the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13338, there need be no prior notice of a determination made pursuant to section l(a) of this order. Sec. 5. The Secretary of the Treasury, after consultation with the Secretary of State, is hereby authorized to take such actions, including the promulga- tion of rules and regulations, and to employ all powers granted to the Presi- dent by IEEPA and UNPA, as may be necessary to carry out the purposes of this order. The Secretary of the Treasury may redelegate any of these functions to other officers and agencies of the United States Government, consistent with applicable law. All agencies of the United States Govern- ment are hereby directed to take all appropriate measures within their au- thority to carry out the provisions of this order and, where appropriate, to advise the Secretary of the Treasury in a timely manner of the measures taken. Sec. 6. This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right, benefit or privilege, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, instrumental- flies, or entities, its officers or employees, or any other person. Sec. 7. This order is effective at \1772:0\177 a.m. eastern daylight time on April 26, 2006. GEORGE W. BUSH The White House, April 25, 2006.

BUSH, President of the United States of America, find that an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States is posed by the persistence of violence in Su- dan's Darfur region, particularly against civilians and including sexual vio- lence against women and girls, and by the deterioration of the security situ- ation and its negative impact on humanitarian assistance efforts, as noted 22O
