Treasury issued the license in December to authorize certain seafood imports from Russia involving a written contract that was already in place before Dec. 22 (see 2312220007). Along with extending the expiration date, the new license now authorizes those transactions as long as they were loaded onto a vessel at the port of loading prior to 12:01 a.m. EST on Feb. 20.
