                    By the authority vested in me as President by the 
                    Constitution and the laws of the United States of 
                    America, including sections 212(f) and 215(a)(1) of the

                    4865 of September 29, 1981, I hereby delegate to the

                        L(a) Maintain custody, at any location she deems 
                    appropriate, and conduct any screening she deems 
                    appropriate in her unreviewable discretion, of any 
                    undocumented person encountered in vessels interdicted 
                    on the high seas in the general area of the Northern 
                    Mariana Islands in 1999, including the stateless vessel
