 Proc. 7519 Title 3--The President rant role in a child's life, particularly if a parent is absent. A mentor's in- volvement in the life of a child can brighten that child's future, help main- tain healthy families, and help promote more vibrant communities. Community mentoting programs have given millions of young people, par- ticularly those at high-risk for poor school performance and behavior prob- lems, a boost in life. Statistics indicate that most children who have been mentoted improve their school attendance and performance, go to college, and are less likely to use drugs or alcohol. By being a positive role model, a mentor can demonstrate the blessings of living a virtuous life by sharing their values and experiences and motivating a child to learn and achieve. We must teach our children the difference between right and wrong; and we must seize every opportunity to help a young person find the right path. We must also teach discipline and accountability. Many adults recall lessons they learned from childhood as a result of ob- serving and interacting with role models. They recognize their childhood homes and schools as places where love, encouragement, and instruction provided them with the tools they needed to become contributing citizens. Today, the role of families, schools, and communities remains crucial to providing stability and direction to America's young people. My Administration strongly supports Federal, State, and local programs that help families stay together, keep both parents involved in their child's life, and utilize our education system to stand by parents and reinforce the values that are taught in the home. I am particularly pleased that the Con- gress passed and I have signed into law legislation I proposed to strengthen and expand successful mentoting initiatives aimed at serving a vulnerable population: children whose parents are incarcerated. This new initiative-- "Promoting Safe and Stable Families Amendments of 2001"--represents the first comprehensive Federal effort to improve the lives of these chil- dren. This important legislation will help surround vulnerable youth with positive, one-on-one role models, and help them not just dream big dreams, but achieve them. On the occasion of National Mentoting Month, we pay tribute to the par- ents, teachers, community leaders, and citizens who serve as mentors and role models for our children. We encourage others to become involved in mentoting. NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim }anuary 2002 as National Mentoting Month. I call upon the people of the United States to recognize the importance of being role models for our youth, to look for mentoting opportunities in their communities, and to celebrate this month with ap- propriate ceremonies, activities, and programs. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this eighteenth day of }anuary, in the year of our Lord two thousand two, and of the Independ- ence of the United States of America the two hundred and twenty-sixth.

 Proclamations Proc. 7520 Proclamation 7520 of January 18, 2002 Nafiona] Sanctity of Human Life Day, 2002 By the President o/the United States o/America A Proclamation This Nation was founded upon the belief that every human being is en- dowed by our Creator with certain "unalienable rights." Chief among them is the right to life itself. The Signers of the Declaration of Independence pledged their own lives, fortunes, and honor to guarantee inalienable rights for all of the new country's citizens. These visionaries recognized that an essential human dignity attached to all persons by virtue of their very exist- ence and not just to the strong, the independent, or the healthy. That value should apply to every American, including the elderly and the unprotected, the weak and the infirm, and even to the unwanted. Thomas Jefferson wrote that, "[t]he care of human life and happiness and not their destruction is the first and only legitimate object of good govern- ment." President Jefferson was right. Life is an inalienable right, under- stood as given to each of us by our Creator. President Jefferson's timeless principle obligates us to pursue a civil society that will democratically embrace its essential moral duties, including de- fending the elderly, strengthening the weak, protecting the defenseless, feeding the hungry, and caring for children--born and unborn. Mindful of these and other obligations, we should join together in pursuit of a more compassionate society, rejecting the notion that some lives are less worthy of protection than others, whether because of age or illness, social cir- cumstance or economic condition. Consistent with the core principles about which Thomas Jefferson wrote, and to which the Founders sub- scribed, we should peacefully commit ourselves to seeking a society that values life--from its very beginnings to its natural end. Unborn children should be welcomed in life and protected in law. On September 11, we saw clearly that evil exists in this world, and that it does not value life. The terrible events of that fateful day have given us, as a Nation, a greater understanding about the value and wonder of life. Every innocent life taken that day was the most important person on earth to somebody; and every death extinguished a world. Now we are engaged in a fight against evil and tyranny to preserve and protect life. In so doing, we are standing again for those core principles upon which our Nation was founded. NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim Sunday, January 20, 2002, as National Sanctity of Human Life Day. I call upon all Americans to reflect upon the sanctity of human life. Let us recognize the day with appropriate ceremonies in our homes and places of worship, rededicate ourselves to compassionate service on behalf of the weak and defenseless, and reaffirm our commitment to respect the life and dignity of every human being. 5

 Proc. 7521 Title 3--The President IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this eighteenth day of January, in the year of our Lord two thousand two, and of the Independ- ence of the United States of America the two hundred and twenty-sixth. GEORGE W. BUSH Proclamation 7521 of February 1, 2002 American Heart Month, 2002 By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation A new era in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases has created renewed hope for those suffering from heart-related disorders. Anti- coagulant drugs and other technologically innovative artery-opening treat- ments, like angioplasty, are enabling doctors to better treat cardiovascular problems in their early stages. Armed with the knowledge that lifestyle plays a significant role in the prevention of heart disease, more and more Americans have recognized the importance of not smoking, getting regular exercise, and maintaining a healthy diet. Despite these advances, cardiovascular disease, including heart disease and stroke, remains the leading cause of death in the United States and greatly increases disability among Americans. This year, cardiovascular disease will be the primary or contributing cause in about 60 percent of all deaths and will cost our Nation more than $330 billion in lost wages, diminished productivity, and medical expenses. It is a little known fact that heart dis- ease is the leading cause of death among women, with over 370,000 deaths every year. According to the Archives of Internal Medicine, most heart attack patients wait more than 2 hours before seeking emergency care, primarily because they do not recognize the symptoms of a heart attack. Delayed awareness of the onset of a heart attack means that only one in five heart attack vic- tims gets to the hospital quickly enough to benefit from life-saving medical treatments. Fortunately, many new public-private partnerships are working to educate Americans about the warning signs of a heart attack and the need for rapid response. The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute and the American Heart Association have recently joined with other national organizations to sponsor a campaign called "Act in Time to Heart Attack Signs." This pub- lic awareness initiative emphasizes preventing heart attacks, recognizing sometimes subtle heart attack symptoms, and immediately calling 911 when those symptoms first appear. The AHA has developed an educational campaign, "Operation Heartbeat," that focuses on reducing sudden deaths from cardiac arrest. Cardiac arrest, an abnormal heart rhythm that stops the heart from effectively pumping blood through the body, usually results in death within 10 to 14 minutes. Currently, only about five percent of those who experience sudden cardiac arrest survive. Operation Heartbeat is educating the public about the signs of cardiac arrest, reinforcing the importance of calling 911 immediately and 6

 Proclamations Proc. 7522 promoting the benefits of knowing and administering cardiopulmonary re- suscitation, until advanced care can be given to restore a normal heartbeat. At this observance of American Heart Month, we pay tribute to the re- searchers, physicians, and other health professionals, public education pro- fessionals, and volunteers for their tireless efforts in preventing, treating, and researching heart disease. We recognize the critical importance of de- veloping tools that will increase survival rates from heart attacks and car- diac arrest. By incorporating these new tools into aggressive education pro- grams and partnerships, we can save tens of thousands of lives annually. In recognition of the important needs in the ongoing fight against cardio- vascular disease, the Congress, by }oint Resolution approved December 30, 1963, as amended (77 Stat. 843; 36 U.S.C. 10\177), has requested that the President issue an annual proclamation designating February as "American Heart Month." NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim February 2002 as American Heart Month. I invite the Governors of the States, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, officials of other areas subject to the iurisdiction of the United States, and the American people to join me in reaffirming our commitment to combating cardiovascular disease and stroke. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this first day of Feb- ruary, in the year of our Lord two thousand two, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and twenty-sixth. GEORGE W. BUSH Proclamation 7522 of February 1, 2002 National African American History Month, 2002 By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation During these extraordinary times, America looks forward to new challenges and opportunities with a reinvigorated sense of unity and common pur- pose. We are a strong and vibrant Nation, thanks to the creativity, fortitude, and resilience of people of every race and background. During National Af- rican American History Month, we celebrate the many achievements and contributions made by African Americans to our economic, cultural, spir- itual, and political development. In 1915, Dr. Carter Godwin Woodson founded The Association for the Study of Negro Life and History. Through that Association, he began press- ing for the establishment of Negro History Week as a way to bring national attention to the accomplishments of African Americans. He hoped to neu- tralize the apparent distortions in Black history and to provide a more ob- jective and scholarly balance to American and World history. Dr. Woodson's dream became a reality in 1926. He chose the second week of February for the observance because of its proximity to the birthdays of 7

 Proc. 7523 Title 3--The President Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass, two individuals whom Dr. Woodson felt had dramatically affected the lives of African Americans. And in 1976, the Association succeeded in expanding the observance, which then became Black History Month. The theme of National African American History Month for 2002 is "The Color Line Revisited: Is Racism Dead?" The observance calls our Nation's attention to the continued need to battle racism and to build a society that fully lives up to its democratic ideals. This commitment includes ensuring a high-quality education for all Americans, so that no child is left behind, and challenges us to continue to rebuild and restore our communities, to fight crime and violence, and to pursue equal opportunity and equal justice in every part of our society. At the same time, the United States must look beyond its borders and take an active role in helping to alleviate poverty, stimulate economic growth and trade, enhance democracy, and combat HIV/AIDS in Africa. This annual event gives all Americans a chance to recognize and com- memorate the global history of people of African descent. As we celebrate National African American History Month, I join with all Americans in celebrating our diverse heritage and culture and continuing our efforts to create a world that is more just, peaceful, and prosperous for all. NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim February 2002 as National African American History Month. I call upon public officials, educators, li- brarians, and all of the people of the United States to observe this month with appropriate programs and activities that highlight and honor the myr- iad contributions of African Americans. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this first day of Feb- ruary, in the year of our Lord two thousand two, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and twenty-sixth. GEORGE W. BUSH Proclamation 7523 of February 4, 2002 National Consumer Protection Week, 2002 By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation Each year, we recognize the important role played by public and private organizations in ensuring that the American consumer is protected from unfair practices. The theme of this year's National Consumer Protection Week is "Consumer Confidential: The Privacy Story." By focusing on con- sumer privacy and the protection of personal information, this week will help Americans learn more about securing their personal information and preserving privacy. Advances in computer technology have enabled the more efficient use of information, which has benefitted society as a whole and individual con- sumers in particular. Americans now enjoy better access to credit and fi- 8

 Proclamations Proc. 7523 nancial services, shopping choices, and educational resources. However, as personal information becomes more accessible, consumers, corporations, and government agencies must take precautions against the misuse of that information. One of the most harmful abuses of personal information is identity theft. This occurs when someone steals a Social Security number, a birth date, or some other important piece of personal information to open new, fraud- ulent charge accounts, to order merchandise, or to borrow money. Victims usually find out about such frauds when collection agencies pursue them for payment on these illegally created accounts, or they are denied credit because of unpaid debts accrued by identity thieves. While vigorous law enforcement is vital to preventing the misuse of per- sonal information, consumer education is the first line of defense against this kind of fraud and deception. An educated consumer is a confident consumer; and it is confident consumers who drive the economy of our Na- tion. A number of public and private entities are joining forces this year to high- light consumer education efforts throughout the Nation. These efforts will help consumers learn more about securing personal information and pri- vacy issues. The entities involved include the following: the Federal Trade Commission, the National Association of Consumer Agency Administrators, the National Consumers League, the American Association of Retired Per- sons, the Better Business Bureau, the Consumer Federation of America, the U.S. Postal Service, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, the National Asso- ciation of Attorneys General, and the Federal Consumer Information Cen- ter. These groups will help consumers understand how information and privacy issues affect their lives and the decisions they make in the market- place. During National Consumer Protection Week, I encourage all Americans to learn more about ways to safeguard their personal information, recognize fraudulent telemarketers, and identify fraudulent e-mail. Through these measures, individuals can better protect their financial security and ulti- mately contribute to the long-term strength of our economy. NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim February 3 through 9, 2002, as National Consumer Protection Week. I call upon Government officials, industry leaders, and consumer advocates to provide consumers informa- tion about the use and misuse of personal information. This will help safe- guard the economic future of all Americans. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this fourth day of February, in the year of our Lord two thousand two, and of the Independ- ence of the United States of America the two hundred and twenty-sixth.

 Proc. 7524 Title 3--The President Proclamation 7524 of February 22, 2002 Suspension of Entry as Immi\365rants and Nonimmi\365rants of Persons Responsible for Actions That Threaten Zimbabwe's Democratic Institutions and Transition to a Multi-Party Democracy By the President of the United States o/America A Proclamation In light of the political and humanitarian crisis in Zimbabwe and the con- tinued failure of President Robert Mugabe, Zimbabwean government offi- cials, and others to support the rule of law, and given the importance to the United States of fostering democratic institutions in Zimbabwe, I have determined that it is in the interest of the United States to take all available measures to restrict the international travel and to suspend the entry into the United States, as immigrants or nonimmigrants, of senior members of the government of Robert Mugabe and others detailed below who formu- late, implement, or benefit from policies that undermine or iniure Zimbabwe's democratic institutions or impede the transition to a multi- party democracy. NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, by the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, including section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nation- ality Act of 1952, 8 U.S.C. 1182(f), and section 301 of title 3, United States Code, hereby find that the unrestricted immigrant and nonimmigrant entry into the United States of persons described in section 1 of this proclama- tion would, except as provided for in sections 2 and 3 of this proclamation, be detrimental to the interests of the United States. I therefore hereby proclaim that: Section 1. The entry into the United States, as immigrants or non- immigrants, of the following persons is hereby suspended: (a) Senior members of the government of Robert Mugabe and other Zimbabwe nationals who formulate, implement, or benefit from policies that undermine or iniure Zimbabwe's democratic institutions or impede the transition to a multi-party democracy; (b) Persons who through their business dealings with Zimbabwe govern- ment officials derive significant financial benefit from policies that under- mine or iniure Zimbabwe's democratic institutions or impede the transition to a multi-party democracy; and (c) The spouses of persons described in paragraphs (a) and (b), above. Sec. 2. Section 1 of this proclamation shall not apply with respect to any person otherwise covered by section 1 where entry of such person would not be contrary to the interest of the United States. Sec. 3. Persons covered by sections 1 and 2 of this proclamation shall be identified by the Secretary of State or the Secretary's designee, in his or her sole discretion, pursuant to such procedures as the Secretary may es- tablish under section 5 of this proclamation. l0

GEORGE W. BUSH Proclamation 7525 of March 2, 2002 American Red Cross Month, 2002 By the President of the United States of Arnerica A Proclamation The American Red Cross is one of our Nation's oldest and most renowned charitable organizations. It provides help, hope, and healing when disasters or other crises strike countries, communities, or families around the world. Founded in 1881 by Clara Barton, the American Red Cross was chartered by the Congress in 1905 to provide aid in times of need. Each year, the Red Cross responds to more than 67,000 disasters nationwide. These in- clude natural disasters, thousands of home fires, and catastrophic emergencies--such as the brutal terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. The Red Cross was among the first to respond to this unprecedented na- tional crisis, providing direct assistance to more than 50,000 families, shel- ter for thousands of displaced persons, millions of meals for the hungry, and grief counseling for more than 200,000 individuals affected by the trau- ma. The Red Cross also provides assistance during international emer- gencies. Responding to my request, it helped create and now administers America's Fund for Afghan Children. American children were asked to do- nate one dollar to aid Afghani children, and this effort has already pro- vided $2.4 million in medicine and other supplies to Afghanistan. Last year, the Red Cross rushed immediate medical aid and other needed items to countries devastated by natural disasters, and it helped millions of peo- ple around the world to battle malnutrition and life-threatening diseases and gain access to safe drinking water. Other Red Cross services include recruiting millions of people annually to donate blood and thereby provide hospitals with half of the Nation's sup- ply of blood and blood products. Red Cross personnel are now with our troops who are fighting terrorism in Afghanistan. They live alongside our 11

They help to keep service members and their families in touch with each other, and offer other small comforts to ease the strain of those who are serving the cause of freedom. At home, the Red Cross' courses in lifesaving skills, first aid, CPR, and water safety, provide Americans with information they need to help main- tain safe and healthy lives. Our communities also benefit from Red Cross programs that provide hot meals and transportation for the homebound, as well as housing and job training for the homeless. Over one million Red Cross volunteers help make our country stronger and more compassionate by relieving suffering and saving lives every year. The USA Freedom Corps initiative will provide the Red Cross with even more volunteers to help further its important mission. As we celebrate American Red Cross Month, I call on all our citizens to recommit to serving others in need. Collective acts of kindness and compassion point the way to a brighter future for our Nation and the world. NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America and Honorary Chairman of the American Red Cross, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim March 2002 as American Red Cross Month. Es- pecially during this extraordinary time for our country, I encourage all Americans to support this organization's noble humanitarian mission.

GEORGE W. BUSH Proclamation 7526 of March 2, 2002 Irish-American Heritage Month, 2002 By the President of the United States of Arnerica A Proclamation America has been shaped by the principles of liberty and freedom, guided by the pursuit of justice, and enriched by the diversity of its people. Irish Americans have been an essential part of this development, greatly contrib- uting to our Nation's progress and prosperity. Our country's citizens come from diverse backgrounds and cultures, which has enabled us to realize the vision embodied in our first national motto: "E Pluribus Unum," meaning "Out of many, one." Our forbears discovered the value inherent in this ideal, building a Nation where all people can live free, be equal under the law, and find opportunity for success in our free- enterprise system. From all points on earth, people of different races, faiths, and ethnicities came to this land to become Americans and thus heirs and stewards of the Founders' vision. This convergence of cultures contributed to the rich fabric of our Nation, uniquely threading together many divergent ideas, tastes, and traditions. Today, we enjoy a society shaped by this his- tory, one Nation under one flag. Our Nation's response to the terrible 12

 Proclamations Proc. 7527 events of September ll demonstrated vividly the reality of the unity and resolve of our diverse people. Since our Nation's founding, millions of Irish have emigrated to this coun- try to embrace the vibrant promise of new opportunity that America offers. Some came to America seeking the freedom to worship as they pleased. Others came in the wake of the devastating Irish potato famine of lg45- \177840, which caused \177 million deaths in Ireland and led nearly \177.5 million Irish to emigrate. And the many successes of the Irish immigrants in Amer- ica proved to be a continuing draw to their friends and family who re- mained in Ireland. The Irish brought with them a spirit of life and an ethic of work that helped to enliven our culture and enabled them to prosper in their new land. George WashingtoWs Continental Army had over 20 generals of Irish de- scent. Americans proudly claiming Irish heritage have held positions of na- tional leadership, including Presidents George Washington, Andrew lack- son, John F. Kennedy, and Ronald Reagan and Supreme Court \177ustices Wil- liam \177. Brennan, \177r., and Sandra Day O'Connor. And numerous Irish Ameri- cans have enjoyed great success in the arts and entertainment field, includ- ing Buster Keaton, Stephen Foster, and F. Scott Fitzgerald. Throughout our history, America has been greatly blessed by the innumer- able contributions of Irish Americans. This month we celebrate these great people and the heritage of their beautiful ancestral homeland, Ireland. NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim March 2002 as Irish-Amer- ican Heritage Month. I call upon all Americans to observe this month by learning about and commemorating the contributions of Irish Americans.

GEORGE W. BUSH Proclamation 7527 of March 2, 2002 National Colerectal Cancer Awareness Month, 2002 By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation This year, more than \17748,000 people will be diagnosed with co]orecta] can- cer, and more than 56,000 people will die from this disease. Colorectal can- cer is the second leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States, yet it is one of the most highly preventable forms of cancer. Early diagnosis is critical to survival. Research shows that 91 percent of patients with lo- calized co]orecta] cancer survive for 5 years after diagnosis, yet only 37 percent of all diagnoses occur at this stage. The remaining 63 percent of cases are not discovered until the disease has spread throughout the body. 13

 Proc. 7528 Title 3--The President Because 75 percent of new cases occur in persons with no known risk fac- tors, regular colorectal cancer screenings are crucial to prevention. Even for an individual without symptoms, screenings are extremely important. For those over 50 and for individuals with a family history of cancer, screenings should be scheduled on a regular basis. I am pleased to note that Medicare coverage for colonoscopies was expanded in 2001 to provide this screening to more beneficiaries, and many commercial health plans now cover this cost. Many people avoid colorectal cancer screening due to fear or anxiety, how- ever, it is important for all Americans to understand the importance of this routine procedure. During National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month, I encourage all Americans to learn more about this disease, to assist preven- tion efforts, and to recognize the importance of colorectal screenings. NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim March 2002 as National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. I call upon all Americans to take ap- propriate measures to protect themselves and their loved ones from this disease.

GEORGE W. BUSH Proclamation 7528 of March 2, 2002 Save Your Vision Week, 2002 By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation Healthy vision is a precious gift that allows us to enioy the beauty of na- ture, the smile of a loved one, and the many wonders in the world around us. Unfortunately for 14 million Americans, eye problems can interfere with daily activities and inhibit the enioyment of life. Health officials have identified the most significant and preventable threats to vision. According to the Department of Health and Human Service's Healthy People 2010 report, visual impairment represents one of our coun- try's \1770 most frequent causes of disability. To help avoid or remedy vision problems, we must remain dedicated to the prevention of eye iniuries, emphasize early detection of eye disease, work to research and develop new treatments and rehabilitation therapies, and promote vision health awareness. All Americans should take steps to en- sure that eye health becomes a priority in our homes, businesses, and com- munities. We should commit to receiving regular dilated eye examinations; we should wear protective eyewear when necessary, both recreationally and on the iob; and we must make every effort to ensure children age 5 and under receive vision screening. 14

I urge all Americans to make eye care and eye safety an important part of their lives and to include dilated eye examinations in their regular health maintenance programs. I invite eye care professionals, the media, and all public and private organizations dedicated to preserving eyesight to join in activities that will raise awareness of measures we can take to protect and sustain our vision.

On December 19, 2001, the United States International Trade Commis- sion (ITC) transmitted to the President a report on its investigation under section 202 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended (the "Trade Act") (19 U.S.C. 2252), with respect to imports of certain steel products. 2. The ITC reached affirmative determinations under section 202(b) of the Trade Act that the following products are being imported into the United States in such increased quantities as to be a substantial cause of serious injury, or threat of serious injury, to the domestic industries producing like or directly competitive articles: (a) certain carbon fiat- rolled steel, includ- ing carbon and alloy steel slabs ("slabs"); plate (including cut-to-length plate and clad plate) ("plate"); hot-rolled steel (including plate in coils) ("hot-rolled steel"); cold-rolled steel (other than grain-oriented electrical steel) ("cold-rolled steel"); and corrosion-resistant and other coated steel ("coated steel") (collectively, "certain fiat steel"); (b) carbon and alloy hot- rolled bar and light shapes ("hot-rolled bar"); (c) carbon and alloy cold-fin- ished bar ("cold-finished bar"); (d) carbon and alloy rebar ("rebar"); (e) car- bon and alloy welded tubular products (other than oil country tubular goods) ("certain tubular products"); (f) carbon and alloy flanges, fittings, and tool joints ("carbon and alloy fittings"); (g) stainless steel bar and light shapes ("stainless steel bar"); and (h) stainless steel rod.

 Proc. 7529 Title 3--The President under section 202(b) regarding whether (i) carbon and alloy tin mill prod- ucts ("tin mill products") and (i) stainless steel wire. 3. The ITC provided detailed definitions of the products included in cat- egories (a) through (i) of paragraph 2, and their corresponding subheadings, under the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS) in Ap- pendix A to its determination, set out at 66 Fed. Reg. 67304, 67308-67311 (December 28, 2001). By February 4, 2002, the ITC provided additional in- formation in response to a request by the United States Trade Representa- tive (USTR) under section 203(a)(5) of the Trade Act (19 U.S. 2253(a)(5)) (the "supplemental report"). 4. Section 330(d)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1330(d)(1)), provides that, when the ITC is required to determine under section 202(b) of the Trade Act whether increased imports of an article are a substantial cause of serious iniury, or the threat thereof, and the commis- sioners voting are equally divided with respect to such determination, then the determination agreed upon by either group of commissioners may be considered by the President as the determination of the ITC. Having con- sidered the determinations of the commissioners with regard to tin mill products and stainless steel wire, I have decided to consider the determina- tions of the groups of commissioners voting in the affirmative with regard to each of these products to be the determination of the ITC. 5. Pursuant to section 3\177(a) of the North American Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act (the "NAFTA Implementation Act") (\1779 U.S.C. 3371(a)), the ITC made findings as to whether imports from Canada and Mexico, considered individually, account for a substantial share of total im- ports and contribute importantly to the serious iniury, or threat thereof, caused by imports. The ITC made negative findings with respect to imports from Canada of certain fiat steel, tin mill products, rebar, stainless steel rod, and stainless steel wire; and the ITC also made negative findings with respect to imports from Mexico of tin mill products, hot-rolled bar, cold- finished bar, rebar, certain tubular products, stainless steel bar, stainless steel rod, and stainless steel wire. The ITC made affirmative findings with respect to imports from Canada of hot-rolled bar, cold-finished bar, carbon and alloy fittings, and stainless steel bar; and the ITC also made affirmative findings with respect to imports from Mexico of certain fiat steel, and car- bon and alloy steel fittings. The ITC commissioners were equally divided with respect to imports from Canada of certain tubular products. 6. The ITC commissioners voting in the affirmative under section 202(b) of the Trade Act also transmitted to the President their recommendations made pursuant to section 202(e) of the Trade Act (\1779 U.S.C. 2252(e)) with respect to the actions that, in their view, would address the serious iniury, or threat thereof, to the domestic industries and be most effective in facili- tating the efforts of those industries to make a positive adiustment to im- port competition. 7. Pursuant to section 203 of the Trade Act (19 U.S.C. 2253), and after tak- ing into account the considerations specified in section 203(a)(2) of the Trade Act and the ITC supplemental report, I have determined to imple- ment action of a type described in section 203(a)(3) (a "safeguard meas- ure") with regard to the following steel products: (a) certain fiat steel, consisting of: slabs provided for in the superior text to subheadings 9903.72.30 through 9903.72.48 in the Annex to this procla- 16

The steel products listed in clauses (i) through (ix) of subdivision (b) of U.S. Note \177 to subchapter III of chapter 99 of the HTS ("Note ll") in the Annex to this proclamation were excluded from the determinations of the ITC de- scribed in paragraph 2, and are excluded from these safeguard measures. I have also determined to exclude from these safeguard measures the steel products listed in the subsequent clauses of subdivision (b) of Note \177 in the Annex to this proclamation. 8. Pursuant to section 3\1772(a) of the NAFTA Implementation Act (\1779 U.S.C. 3372(a)), I have determined after considering the report and supplemental report of the ITC that imports from each of Canada and Mexico of certain fiat steel, tin mill products, hot-rolled bar, cold-finished bar, rebar, certain tubular products, carbon and alloy fittings, stainless steel bar, stainless steel rod, and stainless steel wire, considered individually, do not account for a substantial share of total imports or do not contribute importantly to the serious injury or threat of serious injury found by the ITC. Accordingly, pursuant to section 312(b) of the NAFTA Implementation Act (\1779 U.S.C. 3372(b)), I have excluded certain fiat steel, tin mill products, hot-rolled bar, cold-finished bar, rebar, certain tubular products, carbon and alloy fittings, stainless steel bar, stainless steel rod, and stainless steel wire the product of Mexico or Canada from the actions I am taking under section 203 of the Trade Act. 9. Pursuant to section 203 of the Trade Act (\1779 U.S.C. 2253), the actions I have determined to take shall be safeguard measures in the form of: 17

 CHAPTER VIII

Circa 1348—1399

DEPOPULATION

HE sufferings inflicted by the punishments of the Middle Ages must have been slight compared to the miseries produced by the gross ignorance of the doctors and surgeons of these old times. It is impossible not to smile at their strenuous efforts to appear learned before their unhappy patients. Our forefathers suffered from much the same diseases as we do to-day: they had consumption and cancer, gout and rheumatism and measles, epilepsy and whooping-cough; they had wounds and sores to be treated with no antiseptic dressings, operations to be performed

 Proc. 7529 Title 3--The President (a) a tariff rate quota on imports of slabs described in para\365raph 7, im- posed for a period of 3 years plus 1 day, with annual increases in the with- in-quota quantities and annual reductions in the rates of duty applicable to \365oods entered in excess of those quantities in the second and third years; and (b) an increase in duties on imports of certain fiat steel, other than slabs (includin\365 plate, hot-rolled steel, cold-rolled steel and coated steel), hot- rolled bar, cold-finished bar, rebar, certain welded tubular products, carbon and alloy fittin\365s, stainless steel bar, stainless steel rod, tin mill products, and stainless steel wire, as described in para\365raph 7, imposed for a period of 3 years plus 1 day, with annual reductions in the rates of duty in the second and third years, as provided in the Annex to this proclamation. \1770. The safe\365uard measures described in para\365raph 9 shall not apply to the products listed in clauses followin\365 clause (ix) in subdivision (b) of Note \177 in the Annex to this proclamation. \177l. These safe\365uard measures shall apply to imports from all countries, cept for products of Canada, Israel, Jordan, and Mexico. 12. These safe\365uard measures shall not apply to imports of any product scribed in para\365raph 7 of a developin\365 country that is a member of the World Trade Or\365anization (WTO), as Ion\365 as that country's share of total imports of the product, based on imports durin\365 a recent representative riod, does not exceed 3 percent, provided that imports that are the product of all such countries with less than 3 percent import share collectively ac- count for not more than 9 percent of total imports of the product. If I deter- mine that a sur\365e in imports of a product described in para\365raph 7 of a developin\365 country WTO member undermines the effectiveness of the per- tinent safe\365uard measure, the safe\365uard measure shall be modified to apply to such product from such country. \1773. The in-quota quantity in each year under the tariff rate quota described in para\365raph 9 shall be allocated amon\365 all countries except those coun- tries the products of which are excluded from such tariff rate quota pursu- ant to para\365raphs ll and 12. 14. Pursuant to section 203(a)(1)(A) of the Trade Act (19 U.S.C. 2253(a)(1)(A)), I have further determined that these safe\365uard measures will facilitate efforts by the domestic industry to make a positive adiustment to import competition and provide \365rearer economic and social benefits than costs. If I determine that further action is appropriate and feasible to facili- tate efforts by the pertinent domestic industry to make a positive adiust- ment to import competition and to provide \365rearer economic and social benefits than costs, or if I determine that the conditions under section 204(b)(1) of the Trade Act are met, I shall reduce, modify, or terminate the action established in this proclamation accordin\365ly. In addition, if I deter- mine within 30 days of the date of this proclamation, as a result of con- sultations between the United States and other WTO members pursuant to Article 12.3 of the WTO A\365reement on Safe\365uards that it is necessary to reduce, modify, or terminate a safe\365uard measure, I shall proclaim the cor- respondin\365 reduction, modification, or termination of the safe\365uard meas- ure within 40 days. 15. Section 604 of the Trade Act, as amended (19 U.S.C. 2483), authorizes the President to embody in the HTS the substance of the relevant provi-

 Proclamations Proc. 7529 sions of that Act, and of other acts affecting import treatment, and actions thereunder, including the removal, modification, continuance, or imposi- tion of any rate of duty or other import restriction. NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, acting under the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, including but not limited to sections 203 and 604 of the Trade Act, and section 301 of title 3, United States Code, do proclaim that: (1) In order to establish increases in duty and a tariff rate quota on im- ports of the certain steel products described in paragraph 7 (other than ex- cluded products), subchapter III of chapter 99 of the HTS is modified as provided in the Annex to this proclamation. Any merchandise subject to a safeguard measure that is admitted into U.S. foreign trade zones on or after March 20, 2002, must be admitted as "privileged foreign status" as de- fined in \1779 CFR \17746.4% and will be subject upon entry to any quantitative restrictions or tariffs related to the classification under the applicable HTS subheading. (2) Such imports of certain steel that are the product of Canada, Israel, }ordan, or Mexico shall be excluded from the safeguard measures estab- lished by this proclamation, and such imports shall not be counted toward the tariff rate quota limits that trigger the over-quota rates of duty. (3) Except as provided in clause (4) below, imports of certain steel that are the product of WTO member developing countries, as provided in sub- division (d)(i) of Note ll in the Annex to this proclamation, shall be ex- cluded from the safeguard measures established by this proclamation, and such imports shall not be counted toward the tariff rate quota limits that trigger the over-quota rates of duties. (4) Clause (3) above shall not apply to imports of a product that is the product of a country listed in subdivision (d)(i) of Note \177 in the Annex to this proclamation if subdivision (d)(ii) of such Note indicates that such country's share of total imports of the product exceeds 3 percent, or that imports of the product from all listed countries with less than 3 percent import share collectively account for more than 9 percent of total imports of the product. The USTR is authorized to determine whether a surge in imports of a product that is the product of a country listed in subdivision (d)(i) undermines the effectiveness of the pertinent safeguard measure and, if so, upon publication of a notice in the Federal Register, to revise sub- division (d) of Note 11 in the Annex to this proclamation to indicate that such product from such country is not excluded from such safeguard meas- ul'e. (5) Within 120 days after the date of this proclamation, the USTR is au- thorized to further consider any request for exclusion of a particular prod- uct submitted in accordance with the procedures set out in 66 Fed. Reg. 54321, 54322-54323 (October 26, 2001) and, upon publication in the Fed- eral Register of a notice of his finding that a particular product should be excluded, to modify the HTS provisions created by the Annex to this proc- lamation to exclude such particular product from the pertinent safeguard measure established by this proclamation. (6) In March of each year in which any safeguard measure established by this proclamation remains in effect, the USTR is authorized, upon publi- 19
