                Notice of August 8, 2018

                
Continuation of the National Emergency With 
                Respect to Export Control Regulations

                On August 17, 2001, the President issued Executive 
                Order 13222 pursuant to the International Emergency 
                Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.). In that 
                order, the President declared a national emergency with 
                respect to the unusual and extraordinary threat to the 
                national security, foreign policy, and economy of the 
                United States related to the expiration of the Export 
                Administration Act of 1979, as amended (50 U.S.C. 4601 
                et seq.). Because the Congress has not renewed the 
                Export Administration Act, the national emergency 
                declared on August 17, 2001, must continue in effect 
                beyond August 17, 2018. Therefore, 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 13222, 
                as amended by Executive Order 13637 of March 8, 2013.

                This notice shall be published in the Federal Register 
                and transmitted to the Congress.
                
                
                    (Presidential Sig.)

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    August 8, 2018.
