Editorial notes U.S. Code · Office of the Law Revision Counsel
In subsection (a), the words “and functions” are omitted as surplus.
In subsection (b), the words “appointed . . . without regard to the provisions of title 5, United States Code, governing appointments in the competitive service” are omitted as surplus in view of section 2102(a)(1) of title 5.
In subsection (c), the last sentence conforms with title 5. The word “maximum” is omitted as surplus because GS–18 only has one rate.
Amendments
