L. 9731, § 12(131), Aug. 6, 1981, 95 Stat. 165; Pub. L. 100710, title I, § 104(c), Nov. 23, 1988, 102 Stat. 4750. The words “or other watercraft” are omitted because of the definition of “vessel” in chapter 1 of the revised title. The words “The termination of any emergency so declared shall be announced by a further proclamation by the President” are omitted as superseded by the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.).
