Bush on May 4, 2007, is a Presidential Directive establishing a comprehensive policy on the federal government structures and operations in the event of a "catastrophic emergency".

Bush Gordon Johndroe answered several questions on the matter when asked about it by members of the press in early June 2007. (en)
