Ordering the Selected Reserve of the Armed Forces 
                to Active Duty

                By the authority vested in me as President by the 
                Constitution and the laws of the United States of 
                America, including section 12304 of title 10, United 
                States Code, and having determined that it is necessary 
                to augment the regular Armed Forces of the United 
                States for a named operational mission, specifically 
                the ``Enhanced Department of Defense Counternarcotic 
                Operation in the Western Hemisphere,'' I hereby order 
                as follows:

                Section 1. Activation Authority. The Secretary of 
                Defense is directed to order to active duty for not 
                more than 365 consecutive days, any units, and any 
                individual members not assigned to a unit organized to 
                serve as a unit, of the Selected Reserve under the 
                jurisdiction of the Secretary of Defense, not to exceed 
                200 Selected Reservists at any one time, as he 
                considers necessary.

                Sec. 2. General Provisions. (a) Nothing in this order 
                shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:

(i) the authority granted by law to an executive department or agency, or 
head thereof; or

(ii) the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget 
relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.

                    (b) This order shall be implemented consistent with 
                applicable law and subject to the availability of 
                appropriations.

                    (c) This order is not intended to, and does not, 
                create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, 
                enforceable at law or in equity by any party against 
                the United States, its departments, agencies, or 
                entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any
