In subsection (a), the text of 40:1002(a) and (b) is omitted as unnecessary because the complete names of the Secretary of the Interior and the Administrator of General Services are used the first time the terms appear in a section.
In subsection (a)(3), the words "notwithstanding any other provision of law" are omitted as unnecessary. The words "Administrator of General Services" are substituted for "General Services Administration" because of section 101(b) of the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 (ch. 288, 63 Stat. 379), which is restated as section 302(a) of the revised title.
In subsection (b), the words "January 3, 1985" are substituted for "the commencement of the Ninety-ninth Congress" for clarity.
Section 501 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, referred to in subsec. (a)(4), is classified to section 501 of Title 26, Internal Revenue Code.
2003—Subsec. (a). Pub. L. 108–126 added subsec. (a) and struck out heading and text of former subsec. (a). Text read as follows: "In this chapter, the following definitions apply:

In subsection (a)(1), the words "in the District of Columbia and its environs" are omitted as unnecessary.
In subsection (d), the words "House Administration" are substituted for "House Oversight" because the name of the Committee was changed in the 106th Congress. See Rule X(1)(i) of the Rules of the House of Representatives.
2009—Subsec. (d). Pub. L. 111–11, which directed insertion of "Natural" before "Resources", was executed by making the insertion before "Resources of the House", to reflect the probable intent of Congress.
