The following table lists rulemaking authority (except 5 U.S.C. 301) for regulations codified in the Code of Federal Regulations. Also included are statutory citations which are noted as being interpreted or applied by those regulations.
The table is divided into four segments: United States Code citations, United
States Statutes at Large citations, public law citations, and Presidential document
citations. Within each segment, the citations are arranged in numerical
order:
- For the United States Code, by title and section;
- For the United States Statutes at Large, by volume and page number;
- For public laws, by number; and
- For Presidential documents (Proclamations, Executive orders, and Reorganization plans), by document number.
Entries in the table are taken directly from the rulemaking authority citation
provided by Federal agencies in their regulations. Federal agencies are responsible for keeping these citations current and accurate. Because Federal agencies sometimes present these citations in an inconsistent manner, the table cannot be considered all-inclusive.
The portion of the table listing the United States Code citations is the most
comprehensive, as these citations are entered into the table whenever they are
given in the authority citations provided by the agencies. United States Statutes
at Large and public law citations are carried in the table only when there are no
corresponding United States Code citations given.
