                 TITLE 44--PUBLIC PRINTING AND DOCUMENTS
 
      CHAPTER 15--FEDERAL REGISTER AND CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS
 
Sec. 1510. Code of Federal Regulations

    (a) The Administrative Committee of the Federal Register, with the 
approval of the President, may require, from time to time as it 
considers necessary, the preparation and publication in special or 
supplemental editions of the Federal Register of complete codifications 
of the documents of each agency of the Government having general 
applicability and legal effect, issued or promulgated by the agency by 
publication in the Federal Register or by filing with the Administrative 
Committee, and are relied upon by the agency as authority for, or are 
invoked or used by it in the discharge of, its activities or functions, 
and are in effect as to facts arising on or after dates specified by the 
Administrative Committee.
    (b) A codification published under subsection (a) of this section 
shall be printed and bound in permanent form and shall be designated as 
the ``Code of Federal Regulations.'' The Administrative Committee shall 
regulate the binding of the printed codifications into separate books 
with a view to practical usefulness and economical manufacture. Each 
book shall contain an explanation of its coverage and other aids to 
users that the Administrative Committee may require. A general index to 
the entire Code of Federal Regulations shall be separately printed and 
bound.
    (c) The Administrative Committee shall regulate the supplementation 
and the collation and republication of the printed codifications with a 
view to keeping the Code of Federal Regulations as current as 
practicable. Each book shall be either supplemented or collated and 
republished at least once each calendar year.
    (d) The Office of the Federal Register shall prepare and publish the 
codifications, supplements, collations, and indexes authorized by this 
section.
    (e) The codified documents of the several agencies published in the 
supplemental edition of the Federal Register under this section, as 
amended by documents subsequently filed with the Office and published in 
the daily issues of the Federal Register shall be prima facie evidence 
of the text of the documents and of the fact that they are in effect on 
and after the date of publication.
    (f) The Administrative Committee shall prescribe, with the approval 
of the President, regulations for carrying out this section.
    (g) This section does not require codification of the text of 
Presidential documents published and periodically compiled in 
supplements to Title 3 of the Code of Federal Regulations.
