                                           The White House,
                                       Washington, August 30, 2016.
Hon. Paul D. Ryan,
Speaker of the House of Representatives,
Washington, DC.
    Dear Mr. Speaker: Section 202(d) of the National 
Emergencies Act, 50 U.S.C. 1622(d), provides for the automatic 
termination of a national emergency unless, within 90 days 
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 in Proclamation 7463 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, 2016, the national emergency with 
respect to the terrorist threat.
            Sincerely,
                                                      Barack Obama.







                                 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 previously declared on September 14, 2001, in 
Proclamation 7463, with respect to the terrorist attacks of 
September 11, 2001, 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, and the powers and 
authorities adopted to deal with that emergency must continue 
in effect beyond September 14, 2016. Therefore, I am continuing 
in effect for an additional year the national emergency that 
was 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.

                                                      Barack Obama.
    The White House, August 30, 2016.
