On February 14, 2014, the Department of State published in the Federal Register a notice [Public Notice 8632] of temporary waivers of certain sanctions to allow for a discrete range of transactions related to the provision of satellite connectivity services to the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB). The US Government is issuing these waivers based on Iran’s commitment to ensure that harmful satellite interference does not emanate from its territory, and verification by the US Government that harmful satellite interference is not currently emanating from the territory of Iran.
