Determinations: ``Byzantium: Faith and Power (1261-1557)''

AGENCY: Department of State.

ACTION: Notice; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On December 12, 2003, notice was published as page 69429 of 
the Federal Register (volume 68, number 239) by the Department of State 
pursuant to the authority vested in me by the Act of October 19, 1965 
(79 Stat. 985; 22 U.S.C. 2459), Executive Order 12047 of March 27, 
1978, the Foreign Affairs Reform and Restructuring Act of 1998 (112 
Stat. 2681, et seq.; 22 U.S.C. 6501 note, et seq.), Delegation of 
Authority No. 234 of October 1, 1999, Delegation of Authority No. 236 
of October 19, 1999, as amended, and Delegation of Authority No. 257 of 
April 15, 2003 [68 FR 19875]. The referenced Notice is corrected to 
include an additional object in the exhibition ``Byzantium: Faith and 
Power (1261-1557),'' imported from abroad for temporary exhibition 
within the United States, which I determine is of cultural 
significance. The additional object is imported pursuant to loan 
agreement with the foreign owner. I also determine that the exhibition 
or display of the exhibit objects at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, 
New York, NY, from on or about March 15, 2004, to on or about July 4, 
2004, and at possible additional venues yet to be determined, is in the 
national interest. Public notice of these Determinations is ordered to 
be published in the Federal Register.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For further information, including a 
list of the additional exhibit object, contact Julianne Simpson, 
Attorney-Adviser, Office of the Legal Adviser, Department of State,

Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary for Educational and Cultural 
Affairs, Department of State.
