In the event of an
appropriations lapse, the Office of the
Federal Register (OFR) would be
required to publish documents directly
related to the performance of
governmental functions necessary to
address imminent threats to the safety of
human life or protection of property.
Since it would be impracticable for the
OFR to make case-by-case
determinations as to whether certain
documents are directly related to
activities that qualify for an exemption
under the Antideficiency Act, the OFR
will place responsibility on agencies
submitting documents to certify that
their documents relate to emergency
activities authorized under the Act.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Amy Bunk, Director of Legal Affairs and
Policy, or Miriam Vincent, Staff
Attorney, Office of the Federal Register,
National Archives and Records
Administration, (202) 741–6030 or

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Due to the
possibility of a lapse in appropriations
and in accordance with the provisions
of the Antideficiency Act, as amended
by Public Law 101–508, 104 Stat. 1388
(31 U.S.C. 1341), the Office of the
Federal Register (OFR) announces
special procedures for agencies
submitting documents for publication in
the Federal Register.
In the event of an appropriations
lapse, the OFR would be required to
publish documents directly related to
the performance of governmental
functions necessary to address
imminent threats to the safety of human
life or protection of property. Since it
would be impracticable for the OFR to
make case-by-case determinations as to
whether certain documents are directly
related to activities that qualify for an
exemption under the Antideficiency
Act, the OFR will place responsibility
on agencies submitting documents to
certify that their documents relate to
emergency activities authorized under
the Act.
During a funding hiatus affecting one
or more Federal agencies, the OFR will
remain open to accept and process
documents authorized to be published
in the daily Federal Register in the
absence of continuing appropriations.
An agency wishing to submit a
document to the OFR during a funding
hiatus must attach a transmittal letter to
the document which states that
publication in the Federal Register is
necessary to safeguard human life,
protect property, or provide other
emergency services consistent with the
performance of functions and services
exempted under the Antideficiency Act.
