Doesnt seem to be an answer to that, it is a special group that meets with the President to determine who goes on the kill list. It seems to be Executive.
Did Obama give himself that power?
With respect to domestic law Brennan stated that "as a matter of domestic law, the
Constitution empowers the President to protect the nation from any imminent threat of attack. The
Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) passed by Congress after the September 11 attacks authorizes the president “to use all necessary and appropriate force” against those nations, organizations and individuals responsible for 9/11. There is nothing in the AUMF that restricts the use of military force against al-Qa’ida to
Afghanistan."[SUP]

There is nothing in international law that bans the use of remotely piloted aircraft for this purpose or that prohibits us from using lethal force against our enemies outside of an active battlefield, at least when the country involved consents or is unable or unwilling to take action against the threat."[SUP]
