Presidential Determination No. 2017-09 of June 13, 2017
Presidential Determination Pursuant to Section
4533(a)(5) of the Defense Production Act of 1950
Memorandum for the Secretary of Defense
By the authority vested in me as President by the
Constitution and the laws of the United States,
including section 4533(a)(5) of the Defense Production
Act of 1950 (the ``Act'') (50 U.S.C. 4533(a)(5)), I
hereby determine, pursuant to section 4533(a)(5) of the
Act, that critical technology item shortfalls affecting
adenovirus vaccine production capability; high
strength, inherently fire and ballistic resistant, co-
polymer aramid fibers industrial capability; secure
hybrid composite shipping container industrial
capability; and three-dimensional ultra-high density
microelectronics for information protection industrial
capability are critical to national defense.
Without Presidential action under this Act, the United
States defense industrial base cannot reasonably be
expected to adequately provide those capabilities or
critical technology items in a timely manner. Further,
purchases, purchase commitments, or other action
pursuant to section 4533 of the Act are the most cost
effective, expedient, and practical alternative method
for meeting the need for those capabilities or critical
technology items.
You are authorized and directed to publish this
memorandum in the Federal Register.
(Presidential Sig.)
