                Notice of November 9, 2000

 
                Continuation of Emergency Regarding Weapons of 
                Mass Destruction

                On November 14, 1994, by Executive Order 12938, I 
                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. 
                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, and November 10, 1999, must continue in effect 
                beyond November 14, 2000. Therefore, in accordance with 
                section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 
                U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing the national emergency 
                declared in Executive Order 12938.

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

                    (Presidential Sig.)

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                     November 9, 2000.
