                Executive Order 13235 of November 16, 2001

                
National Emergency Construction Authority

                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, I declared a national emergency 
                that requires the use of the Armed Forces of the United 
                States, by Proclamation 7463 of September 14, 2001, 
                because of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade 
                Center and the Pentagon, and because of the continuing 
                and immediate threat to the national security of the 
                United States of further terrorist attacks. To provide 
                additional authority to the Department of Defense to 
                respond to that threat, and in accordance with section 
                301 of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1631), I 
                hereby order that the emergency construction authority 
                at 10 U.S.C. 2808 is invoked and made available in 
                accordance with its terms to the Secretary of Defense 
                and, at the discretion of the Secretary of Defense, to 
                the Secretaries of the military departments.

                    (Presidential Sig.)B

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                     November 16, 2001.
