§ 589.332 Railway sector of the Russian Federation economy.
The term railway sector of the Russian Federation economy includes the following activities and items produced in, sold from, purchased in, transiting, or distributed in the Russian Federation: the procurement, design, manufacture, construction, maintenance, repair, refurbishment, assembly, sale, purchase, distribution, and transportation of trains, locomotives, rail cars, and other equipment used to transport passengers and goods via trains; any materials that are used to manufacture trains or other means necessary to move the trains, such as railway lines, equipment, engineering, mechanical, or electrical systems or methods, or technology; and any infrastructure or services used to support railway operations, such as passenger ticketing and on-board food sales or services.
1) This definitional provision was implemented into the URSR in 5-2-2022, and is novel in the sense that the substance does not reproduce prior-issued guidance. The provision is relevant for the purposes of OFAC's designations and SSI List additions under EO 13661 and EO 13662 (i.e. the provisions therein that allow for the imposition of sanctions on persons "operating in" certain sectors of the Russian economy).
