                Executive Order 13205 of March 9, 2001

                
Establishing an Emergency Board To Investigate a 
                Dispute Between Northwest Airlines, Inc., and Its 
                Employees Represented by the Aircraft Mechanics 
                Fraternal Association

                A dispute exists between Northwest Airlines, Inc., and 
                its employees represented by the Aircraft Mechanics 
                Fraternal Association.

                The dispute has not heretofore been adjusted under the 
                provisions of the Railway Labor Act, as amended (45 
                U.S.C. 151-188) (the ``Act'').

                In the judgment of the National Mediation Board, this 
                dispute threatens substantially to interrupt interstate 
                commerce to a degree that would deprive sections of the 
                country of essential transportation service.

                NOW, THEREFORE, by the authority vested in me as 
                President by the Constitution and the laws of the 
                United States, including sections 10 and 201 of the Act 
                (45 U.S.C. 160 and 181), it is hereby ordered as 
                follows:

                Section 1. Establishment of Emergency Board 
                (``Board''). There is established, effective March 12, 
                2001, a Board of three members to be appointed by the 
                President to investigate this dispute. No member shall 
                be pecuniarily or otherwise interested in any 
                organization of airline employees or any air carrier. 
                The Board shall perform its functions subject to the 
                availability of funds.

                Sec. 2. Report. The Board shall report to the President 
                with respect to this dispute within 30 days of its 
                creation.

                Sec. 3. Maintaining Conditions. As provided by section 
                10 of the Act, from the date of the creation of the 
                Board and for 30 days after the Board has submitted its 
                report to the President, no change in the conditions 
                out of which the dispute arose shall be made by the 
                parties to the controversy, except by agreement of the 
                parties.

                Sec. 4. Record Maintenance. The records and files of 
                the Board are records of the Office of the President 
                and upon the Board's termination shall be maintained in 
                the physical custody of the National Mediation Board.

                Sec. 5. Expiration. The Board shall terminate upon the 
                submission of the report provided for in sections 2 and 
                3 of this order.

                    (Presidential Sig.)B

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    March 9, 2001.
