It describes the purposes and programs of most Government agencies and lists key officials. Briefer statements are included for the quasi-official agencies and certain international organizations. Most departments and agencies have included a summary paragraph, appearing after the personnel listing, which briefly describes their role in the Federal Government. Department and agency descriptions emphasize programs and activities rather than internal agency structure. Persons interested in the detailed organizational structure of a department or agency should refer to its most recent statement of organization, published in the Federal Register or Code of Federal Regulations in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552. Personnel changes which occurred too late to be included in the text of the Manual appear in the Recent Changes section, beginning on the inside front cover. The 1978/79 Manual was prepared under the editorial direction of Martha B. Girard, Director, and Richard L. Claypoole, Deputy Director, Presidential Documents Division. Brenda A. Robeson was Chief Editor, and Brian R. Hermes and Roland E. Nelson were Associate Editors. As always, Manual users' comments and suggestions are invited. Comments should be sent to the Office of the Federal Register, National Archives and Records Service, Washington, D.C. 20408. |
