On the recordSeptember 26, 2002
Looking at that section--incidentally, the language, the Nelson-Chafee-Breaux amendment amends decisions made under 7103(b)(1). (b)(2) I think gives the President authority to suspend any provision of the chapter specifically with respect to any installation or activity located outside the United States of America. It is not diminished at all, not really affected at all.
