Closing of Federal Government Executive 
                Departments and Agencies on Monday, December 24, 2001

                By the authority vested in me as President by the 
                Constitution and the laws of the United States of 
                America, it is hereby ordered as follows:

                Section 1. All executive branch departments and 
                agencies of the Federal Government shall be closed and 
                their employees excused from duty on Monday, December 
                24, 2001, the day before Christmas Day, except as 
                provided in section 2 below.

                Sec. 2. The heads of executive branch departments and 
                agencies may determine that certain offices and 
                installations of their organizations, or parts thereof, 
                must remain open and that certain employees must report 
                for duty on December 24, 2001, for reasons of national 
                security or defense or other public reasons.

                Sec. 3. Monday, December 24, 2001, shall be considered 
                as falling within the scope of Executive Order 11582 of

                pay and leave of employees of the United States.

                    (Presidential Sig.)B

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    December 5, 2001.
