Continuation of Iran Emergency

Notice of November 9, 2001

Continuation of Iran Emergency

On November 14, 1979, by Executive Order 12170, the
President declared a national emergency with respect to
Iran pursuant to the International Emergency Economic
Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706) to deal with the
unusual and extraordinary threat to the national
security, foreign policy, and economy of the United
States constituted by the situation in Iran. Because
our relations with Iran have not yet returned to
normal, and the process of implementing the January 19,
1981, agreements with Iran is still underway, the
national emergency declared on November 14, 1979, must
continue in effect beyond November 14, 2001. Therefore,
in accordance with section 202(d) of the National
Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing
for 1 year this national emergency with respect to
Iran.

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

(Presidential Sig.)B

THE WHITE HOUSE,
