Thus, 24 CFR 510.1 refers to title 24, part 510, section 1. Explanation The Code of Federal Regulations is a codification of the general and permanent rules published in the Federal Register by the Executive departments and agencies of the Federal Government. The Code is divided into 50 titles which represent broad areas subject to Federal regulation. Each title is divided into chapters which usually bear the name of the issuing agency. Each chapter is further subdivided into parts covering specific regulatory areas. Each volume of the Code is revised at least once each calendar year and issued on a quarterly basis approximately as follows: Title 1 through Title 16.......... Title 17 through Title 27 Title 28 through Title 41 Title 42 through Title 50......... .as of January 1 .as of April 1 ........as of July 1 .as of October 1 The appropriate revision date is printed on the cover of each volume. LEGAL STATUS The contents of the Federal Register are required to be judicially noticed (44 U.S.C. 1507). The Code of Federal Regulations is prima facie evidence of the text of the original documents (44 U.S.C. 1510). HOW TO USE THE CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS The Code of Federal Regulations is kept up to date by the individual issues of the Federal Register. These two publications must be used together to determine the latest version of any given rule. To determine whether a Code volume has been amended since its revision date (in this case, April 1, 1997), consult the "List of CFR Sections Affected (LSA),” which is issued monthly, and the "Cumulative List of Parts Affected," which appears in the Reader Aids section of the daily Federal Register. These two lists will identify the Federal Register page number of the latest amendment of any given rule. EFFECTIVE AND EXPIRATION DATES Each volume of the Code contains amendments published in the Federal Register since the last revision of that volume of the Code. Source citations for the regulations are referred to by volume number and page number of the Federal Register and date of publication. Publication dates and effective dates are usually not the same and care must be exercised by the user in determining the actual effective date. In instances where the effective date is beyond the cutoff date for the Code a note has been inserted to reflect the future effective date. In those instances where a regulation published in the Federal Register states a date certain for expiration, an appropriate note will be inserted following the text. OMB CONTROL NUMBERS The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (Pub. L. 96-511) requires Federal agencies to display an OMB control number with their information collection request. Many agencies have begun publishing numerous OMB control numbers as a ments to existing regulations in the CFR. These OMB numbers are pla close as possible to the applicable recordkeeping or reporting requirements. OBSOLETE PROVISIONS Provisions that become obsolete before the revision date stated on the of each volume are not carried. Code users may find the text of provisi effect on a given date in the past by using the appropriate numerical 1 sections affected. For the period before January 1, 1986, consult either th of CFR Sections Affected, 1949-1963, 1964-1972, or 1973-1985, published in seve arate volumes. For the period beginning January 1, 1986, a "List of CFR Se Affected" is published at the end of each CFR volume.
