Presidential Determination No. 2001-25

Memorandum for the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Energy

Subject: Presidential Determination on the Proposed Protocol Amending 
the Agreement for Cooperation Between the Government of the United 
States of America and the Government of the Kingdom of Morocco 
Concerning Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy

    I have considered the proposed Protocol Amending the Agreement for 
Cooperation Between the Government of the United States of America and 
the Government of the Kingdom of Morocco Concerning Peaceful Uses of 
Nuclear Energy signed at Washington on May 30, 1980, along with the 
views, recommendations, and statements of the interested agencies.
    I have determined that the performance of the Protocol will promote, 
and will not constitute an unreasonable risk to, the common defense and 
security. Pursuant to section 123 b. of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, 
as amended (42 U.S.C. 2153(b)), I hereby approve the proposed Protocol 
and authorize you to arrange for its execution.
    The Secretary of State is authorized and directed to publish this 
determination in the Federal Register.
                                                George W. Bush
