Proc. 3290, 24 F.R. 3527, May 2, 1959; Proc. 3328, 24 F.R. 10133, Dec. 16, 1959; Proc. 3386, 25 F.R. 13945, Dec. 30, 1960; Proc. 3389, 26 F.R. 507, Jan. 20, 1961; Proc. 3509, 27 F.R. 11985, Dec. 5, 1962; Proc. 3531, 28 F.R. 4077, Apr. 25, 1963; Proc. 3541, 28 F.R. 5931, June 13, 1963; Proc. 3693, 30 F.R. 15459, Dec. 16, 1965; Proc. 3779, 32 F.R. 5919, Apr. 13, 1967; Proc. 3794, 32 F.R. 10547, July 19, 1967; Proc. 3820, 32 F.R. 15701, Nov. 15, 1967; Proc. 3823, 33 F.R. 1171, Jan. 20, 1968. WHEREAS, pursuant to section 2 of the act of July 1, 1954, as amended (72 Stat. 678, 19 U.S.C. 1352a), the Director of the Office of Civil and Defense Mobilization has made an appropriate investigation to determine the effects on the national security of imports of crude oil and crude oil derivatives and products and, having considered the matters required by him to be considered by the said act of July 1, 1954, as amended, has advised me of his opinion "that crude oil and the principal crude oil derivatives and products are being imported in such quantities and under such circumstances as to threaten to impair the national security"; and

WHEREAS, having considered the matters required by me to be considered by the said act of July 1, 1954, as amended, I agree with the said advice; and

WHEREAS I find and declare that adjustments must be made in the imports of crude oil, unfinished oils, and finished products, so that such imports will not so threaten to impair the national security; and

WHEREAS I find and declare that within the continental United States there are two areas, one, east of the Rocky Mountains (Districts I-IV), in which there is substantial oil production capacity in excess of actual production, and the other, west of the Rocky Mountains (District V), in which production is declining and in which, due to the absence of any significant inter-area flow of oil, limited imports are necessary to meet demand, and that accordingly, imports into such areas must be treated differently to avoid discouragement of and decrease in domestic oil production, exploration and development to the detriment of the national security; and

WHEREAS I find and declare that the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico largely depends upon imported crude oil, unfinished oils, and finished products and that any system for the adjustment of imports of such commodities should permit imports into Puerto Rico adequate
