                Notice of November 12, 1996

                
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 declared on 
                November 14, 1994, and extended on November 14, 1995, 
                must continue in effect beyond November 14, 1996. 
                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 12, 1996.
