[Federal Register: October 27, 2005 (Volume 70, Number 207)] [Presidential Documents] [Page 62027] From the Federal Register Online via GPO Access [wais.access.gpo.gov] [DOCID:fr27oc05-88] Presidential Documents [[Page 62027]] Notice of October 25, 2005 Continuation of National Emergency Regarding the Proliferation of 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 amending Executive Order 12938 to respond more effectively to the worldwide threat of weapons of mass destruction proliferation activities. On June 28, 2005, I issued Executive Order 13382 which, inter alia, further amended Executive Order 12938 to improve our ability to combat proliferation. 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, must continue in effect beyond November 14, 2005. 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, October 25, 2005.
