                Proclamation 7463 of September 14, 2001

                
Declaration of National Emergency by Reason of 
                Certain 
                Terrorist Attacks

                By the President of the United States of America

                A Proclamation

                A national emergency exists by reason of the terrorist 
                attacks at the World Trade Center, New York, New York, 
                and the Pentagon, and the continuing and immediate 
                threat of further attacks on the United States.

                NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the 
                United States of America, by virtue of the authority 
                vested in me as President by the Constitution and the 
                laws of the United States, I hereby declare that the 
                national emergency has existed since September 11, 
                2001, and, pursuant to the National Emergencies Act (50 
                U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), I intend to utilize the following 
                statutes: sections 123, 123a, 527, 2201(c), 12006, and 
                12302 of title 10, United States Code, and sections 
                331, 359, and 367 of title 14, United States Code.

                This proclamation immediately shall be published in the 
                Federal Register or disseminated through the Emergency 
                Federal Register, and transmitted to the Congress.

                This proclamation is not intended to create any right 
                or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at 
                law by a party against the United States, its agencies, 
                its officers, or any person.

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 
                fourteenth day of September, in the year of our Lord 
                two thousand one, and of the Independence of the United 
                States of America the two hundred and twenty-sixth.

                    (Presidential Sig.)B
