Notice of November 12, 1998
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, and November 13, 1997, must continue
in effect beyond November 14, 1998. 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, 1998.
