and Public Law 111–259 to Section 8G
of the IG Act. With respect to the IG
Act’s listing of ‘‘designated Federal
entities’’ in Section 8G(a)(2), Public Law
111–203 added the Bureau of Consumer
Financial Protection to the pre-existing
listing for ‘‘the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System’’; and,
Public Law 111–259 added the Defense
Intelligence Agency, the National
Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, the
National Reconnaissance Office, and the
National Security Agency. In addition,
Public Law 111–203 amended Section
8G(a)(4), which is the provision of the
IG Act that defines the term ‘‘head of the
designated Federal entity.’’ As an initial
matter, Congress amended the
introductory text of Section 8G(a)(4) to
state that—in the case of boards and
commissions—‘‘the term ‘head of the
designated Federal entity’ means the
board or commission of the designated
Federal entity.’’ As a result of this
amendment, Section 8G(a)(4) sets forth
three main categories of ‘‘designated
Federal entities’’ with respect to who is
the ‘‘head’’ of the entity: the term ‘‘head
of the designated Federal entity’’ means
(1) ‘‘the board or commission of the
designated Federal entity’’; (2) ‘‘in the
event the designated Federal entity does
not have a board or commission, any
person or persons designated by statute
as the head of a designated Federal
entity’’; and (3) ‘‘if no such designation
exists, the chief policymaking officer or
board of a designated Federal entity as
identified in the list published pursuant
to subsection (h)(1) of this section,
except that . . .’’ In addition, Public
Law 111–203 amended Section 8G(a)(4)
to include six additional entity-specific
exceptions to those general rules; in
these exceptions, Congress specifies
who is the ‘‘head of the designated
Federal entity’’ for each of those
entities. The pre-existing exceptions—
for the National Science Foundation and
the United States Postal Service—are
found at subparagraphs (A) and (B), and
the six added exceptions—for the
Federal Labor Relations Authority, the
National Archives and Records
Administration, the National Credit
Union Administration, the National
Endowment for the Arts, the National
Endowment for the Humanities, and the
Peace Corps—are found at
subparagraphs (C) through (H).
The list below is divided into two
groups: Designated Federal Entities and
Federal Entities. Designated Federal
Entities are listed in the IG Act, except
for those agencies that have ceased to
exist or that have been deleted from the
list. The Designated Federal Entities are
required to establish and maintain

Offices of Inspector General to: (1)

prevent and detect fraud and abuse in
such programs and operations; and (3)
provide a means of keeping the entity
head and the Congress fully and
currently informed about problems and
deficiencies relating to the
administration of such programs and
operations and the necessity for, and
progress of, corrective actions.
Section 8G(a)(1) of the IG Act defines
a ‘‘Federal entity’’ as: any Government
corporation (within the meaning of
section 103 (1) of title 5, United States
Code), any Government controlled
corporation (within the meaning of
section 103 (2) of such title), or any
other entity in the Executive Branch of
the Government, or any independent
regulatory agency, but does not include:
(1) An establishment (as defined in
section 11(2) of this Act or part of an
establishment;
(2) a designated Federal entity [as
defined in section 8G(a)(2) of the Act] or
part of a designated Federal entity;
(3) the Executive Office of the
President;
(4) the Central Intelligence Agency;
(5) the Government Accountability
Office; or
(6) any entity in the judicial or
legislative branches of the Government,
including the Administrative Office of
the United States Courts and the
Architect of the Capitol and any
activities under the direction of the
Architect of the Capitol.
Pursuant to section 8(G)(h)(2) of the
IG Act, Federal Entities are required to
report annually to each House of the
Congress and OMB on audit and
investigative activities in their
organizations.

Entities and Federal Entities
AGENCY: Office of Management and Budget.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: As required by Section 8G of the Inspector General Act of
1978, as amended (IG Act; 5 U.S.C. Appendix), this notice provides the
FY 2013 and FY 2014 list of Designated Federal Entities and Federal
Entities.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mike Wetklow, Office of Management and
Budget, Office of Federal Financial Management, New Executive Office
Building, Washington, DC 20503, (202) 395-3998.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice provides the FY 2013 and FY 2014
List of Designated Federal Entities and Federal Entities which, under
Section 8G of the IG Act, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) is
required to publish. This list is also posted on the OMB Web site at
https://www.whitehouse.gov/omb.
The list of the ``Federal Entities'' has been updated to reflect:
(1) The re-establishment of the Administrative Conference of the United
States in March 2010 (ACUS had not received funding between 1995 and
2009); (2) the establishment of the Financial Stability Oversight
Council in Public Law 111-203 (Section 111); (3)the establishment of
the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council in Public Law 112-141
(Section 1603); and (4) the establishment of the Valles Caldera Trust

The list of the ``Designated Federal Entities'' has been updated to
reflect the amendments in Public Law 111-203 and Public Law 111-259 to
Section 8G of the IG Act. With respect to the IG Act's listing of
``designated Federal entities'' in Section 8G(a)(2), Public Law 111-203
added the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection to the pre-existing
listing for ``the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System'';
and, Public Law 111-259 added the Defense Intelligence Agency, the

203 amended Section 8G(a)(4), which is the provision of the IG Act that
defines the term ``head of the designated Federal entity.'' As an

8G(a)(4) to state that--in the case of boards and commissions--``the

(1) ``the board or commission of the designated Federal entity''; (2)
``in the event the designated Federal entity does not have a board or
commission, any person or persons designated by statute as the head of
a designated Federal entity''; and (3) ``if no such designation exists,
the chief policymaking officer or board of a designated Federal entity
as identified in the list published pursuant to subsection (h)(1) of
this section, except that . . .'' In addition, Public Law 111-203
amended Section 8G(a)(4) to include six additional entity-specific
exceptions to those general rules; in these exceptions, Congress
specifies who is the ``head of the designated Federal entity'' for each

subparagraphs (A) and (B), and the six added exceptions--for the
Federal Labor Relations Authority, the National Archives and Records
Administration, the National Credit Union Administration, the National
Endowment for the Arts, the National Endowment for the Humanities, and
the Peace Corps--are found at subparagraphs (C) through (H).
The list below is divided into two groups: Designated Federal
Entities and Federal Entities. Designated Federal Entities are listed
in the IG Act, except for those agencies that have ceased to exist or
that have been deleted from the list. The Designated Federal Entities

effectiveness of, and to prevent and detect fraud and abuse in such
programs and operations; and (3) provide a means of keeping the entity
head and the Congress fully and currently informed about problems and
deficiencies relating to the administration of such programs and
operations and the necessity for, and progress of, corrective actions.
Section 8G(a)(1) of the IG Act defines a ``Federal entity'' as: any
Government corporation (within the meaning of section 103 (1) of title
