                Notice of November 6, 2002

                
Continuation of Emergency Regarding Weapons of 
                Mass

                Destruction

                On November 14, 1994, by Executive Order 12938, 
                President Clinton declared a national emergency with 
                respect to the unusual and extraordinary threat to the 
                national security, foreign policy, and economy of the 
                United States posed by the proliferation of nuclear, 
                biological, and chemical weapons (weapons of mass 
                destruction) and the means of delivering such weapons. 
                On July 28, 1998, the President issued Executive Order 
                13094 to amend Executive Order 12938 to more 
                effectively respond to the worldwide threat of weapons 
                of mass destruction proliferation activities. Because 
                the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and 
                the means of delivering them continues to pose an 
                unusual and extraordinary threat to the national 
                security, foreign policy, and economy of the United 
                States, the national emergency first declared on 
                November 14, 1994, and extended on November 14, 1995, 
                November 12, 1996, November 13, 1997, November 12, 
                1998, November 10, 1999, November 12, 2000, and 
                November 9, 2001, must continue in effect beyond 
                November 14, 2002. In accordance with section 202(d) of 
                the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am 
                continuing for 1 year the national emergency declared 
                in Executive Order 12938, as amended.

                This notice shall be published in the Federal Register 
                and transmitted to the Congress.

                    (Presidential Sig.)B

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                     November 6, 2002.
