                 Presidential Determination No. 2019-13 of June 10, 2019
                
                Presidential Determination Pursuant to Section
                 303 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 domestic production
                 capability for small unmanned aerial systems is
                 essential to the national defense.
                 Without Presidential action under section 303 of the
                 Act, United States industry cannot reasonably be
                 expected to provide the production capability for small
                 unmanned aerial systems 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.)
