Presidential Notice 13222

Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Export Control Regulations

This notice continues for one year the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13222 (August 17, 2001) regarding export control regulations, which underpins sanctions authorities under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. The continuation is required because certain Export Administration Act sanctions provisions are implemented through IEEPA, and the underlying statutory authority remains expired.
