 NOTIFICATION THAT THE NATIONAL EMERGENCY DECLARED WITH RESPECT TO THE

  CONTINUE IN EFFECT BEYOND SEPTEMBER 14, 2007, PURSUANT TO 50 U.S.C. 
                                1622(d)




 September 14, 2007.--Message and accompanying papers referred to the 
         Committee on Foreign Affairs and ordered to be printed
To the Congress of the United States:
    Section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act, 50 U.S.C. 
1622(d), provides for the automatic termination of a national 
emergency unless, prior to the anniversary date of its 
declaration, the President publishes in the Federal Register 
and transmits to the Congress a notice stating that the 
emergency is to continue in effect beyond the anniversary date. 
Consistent with this provision, I have sent to the Federal 
Register the enclosed notice, stating that the emergency 
declared with respect to the terrorist attacks on the United 
States of September 11, 2001, is to continue in effect for an 
additional year.
    The terrorist threat that led to the declaration on 
September 14, 2001, of a national emergency continues. For this 
reason, I have determined that it is necessary to continue in 
effect after September 14, 2007, the national emergency with 
respect to the terrorist threat.

                                                    George W. Bush.
    The White House, September 12, 2007.
                                 Notice

                              ----------                              


    Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Certain 
                           Terrorist Attacks

    Consistent with section 202(d) of the, National Emergencies 
Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the 
national emergency I declared on September 14, 2001, in 
Proclamation 7463, with respect to the terrorist attacks at the 
World Trade Center, New York, New York, the Pentagon, and 
aboard United Airlines flight 93, and the continuing and 
immediate threat of further attacks on the United States.
    Because the terrorist threat continues, the national 
emergency declared on September 14, 2001, last extended on 
September 5, 2006, and the powers and authorities adopted to 
deal with that emergency, must continue in effect beyond 
September 14, 2007. Therefore, I am continuing in effect for an 
additional year the national emergency I declared on September 
14, 2001, with respect to the terrorist threat.
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and 
transmitted to the Congress.

                                                    George W. Bush.
    The White House, September 12, 2007.
