Amendment to Executive Order 13223, Ordering the
Ready Reserve of the Armed Forces to Active Duty and
Delegating Certain Authorities to the Secretary of
Defense and the
Secretary of Transportation
By the authority vested in me as President by the
Constitution and the laws of the United States of
America, including the National Emergencies Act (50
U.S.C. 1601 et seq.) and section 301 of title 3, United
States Code, and in furtherance of Proclamation 7463 of
September 14, 2001, Declaration of National Emergency
by Reason of Certain Terrorist Attacks, which declared
a national emergency by reason of the terrorist attacks
on the World Trade Center, New York, New York, and the
Pentagon, and the continuing and immediate threat of
further attacks on the United States, and in order to
provide the Secretary of Transportation, with respect
to the Coast Guard, with the authority to manage
personnel requirements in a manner consistent with the
authorization provided to the Secretary of Defense in
Executive Order 13223 of September 14, 2001, it is
hereby ordered as follows:
Section 1. Section 5 of Executive Order 13223 is
amended by adding at the end: ``The Secretary of
Transportation is further designated and empowered,
without the approval, ratification or any other action
by the President, to exercise the authority vested in
the President by sections 123 and 123a of title 10,
United States Code, and sections 149 (detail members to
assist foreign governments), 275(a) (suspension of
provisions on selection, promotion, or involuntary
separation of officers), and 722 (administration of
reserve forces) of title 14, United States Code, as
invoked by section 2 of Executive Order 13223.''
Sec. 2. Section 7 of Executive Order 13223 is deleted
and revised to read as follows: ``Based upon my
determination under 10 U.S.C. 2201(c) that it is
necessary to increase (subject to limits imposed by
law) the number of members of the armed forces on
active duty for the Department of Defense beyond the
number for which funds are provided in the
appropriation Act for the Department of Defense, which,
by virtue of 14 U.S.C. 652, applies to the Department
of Transportation with respect to the Coast Guard, the
Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of
Transportation may provide
[[Page 2792]]
for the cost of such additional members under their
respective jurisdictions as an excepted expense under
section 11(a) of title 41, United States Code.''
