How to use this edition

HOW TO USE THE CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS

The Code of Federal Regulations is kept up to date by the individual issuesof the Federal Register. These two publications must be used together todetermine the latest version of any given rule.

To determine whether a Code volume has been amended since its revision date(in this case, July 1, 2006), consult the “List of CFR Sections Affected(LSA),” which is issued monthly, and the “Cumulative List of PartsAffected,” which appears in the Reader Aids section of the daily FederalRegister. These two lists will identify the Federal Register page number of thelatest amendment of any given rule.

EFFECTIVE AND EXPIRATION DATES

Each volume of the Code contains amendments published in the Federal Registersince the last revision of that volume of the Code. Source citations for theregulations are referred to by volume number and page number of the FederalRegister and date of publication. Publication dates and effective dates areusually not the same and care must be exercised by the user in determining theactual effective date. In instances where the effective date is beyond the cut-off date for the Code a note has been inserted to reflect the future effectivedate. In those instances where a regulation published in the Federal Registerstates a date certain for expiration, an appropriate note will be insertedfollowing the text.

INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE

What is incorporation by reference?

Incorporation by referencewas established by statute and allows Federal agencies to meet the requirementto publish regulations in the Federal Register by referring to materials alreadypublished elsewhere. For an incorporation to be valid, the Director of theFederal Register must approve it. The legal effect of incorporation by referenceis that the material is treated as if it were published in full in the FederalRegister (5 U.S.C. 552(a)). This material, like any other properly issuedregulation, has the force of law.

What is a proper incorporation by reference?

The Director ofthe Federal Register will approve an incorporation by reference only when therequirements of 1 CFR part 51 are met. Some of the elements on which approval isbased are:

(a) The incorporation will substantially reduce the volume of materialpublished in the Federal Register.

(b) The matter incorporated is in fact available to the extent necessary toafford fairness and uniformity in the administrative process.

Properly approved incorporations by reference in this volume are listed inthe Finding Aids at the end of this volume.

What if the material incorporated by reference cannot be found?

If you have any problem locating or obtaining a copy of material listed in theFinding Aids of this volume as an approved incorporation by reference, pleasecontact the agency that issued the regulation containing that incorporation. If,after contacting the agency, you find the material is not available, pleasenotify the Director of the Federal Register, National Archives and RecordsAdministration, Washington DC 20408, or call 202-741-6010.
