Presidential Determination No. 2019-02 of October 5,
2018
Presidential Determination Pursuant to Section
303 of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as Amended
Memorandum for the Secretary of Defense
By the authority vested in me as President by the
Constitution and the laws of the United States of
America, including section 303 of the Defense
Production Act of 1950, as amended (the ``Act'') (50
U.S.C. 4533), I hereby determine, pursuant to section
303(a)(5) of the Act, that the development of and the
purchase of equipment and materials needed for alane
fuel cells are essential to the national defense.
Without Presidential action under section 303 of the
Act, United States industry cannot reasonably be
expected to provide the capability for the production
of alane fuel cells adequately and in a timely manner.
Further, purchases, purchase commitments, or other
action pursuant to section 303 of the Act are the most
cost effective, expedient, and practical alternative
method for meeting the need for this critical
capability.
You are authorized and directed to publish this
memorandum in the Federal Register.
(Presidential Sig.)
