(OFR) is required to publish documents
directly related to the performance of

under the Antideficiency Act, the OFR
places responsibility on agencies
submitting documents to certify that
their documents are authorized under
the Act.

Affairs and Policy Division, Office of the
Federal Register, National Archives and
Records Administration, (202) 741–6030

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 OFR announces
special procedures for agencies
transmitting documents for publication
in the Federal Register.
During an appropriations lapse, the
OFR is 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 and
documents related to funded programs
if delaying publication until the end of
the appropriations lapse would prevent
or significantly damage the execution of
funded functions at the agency. The
OFR is prohibited from publishing other
agency documents. Since it would be
impracticable for the OFR to make caseby-case determinations as to whether
certain documents are directly related to
activities that qualify for an exemption
under the Antideficiency Act, the OFR
places responsibility on agencies
transmitting documents for publication
to certify that their documents are
authorized under the Act.
During an appropriations lapse
affecting one or more Federal agencies,
the OFR remains 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
transmit a document to the OFR during
an appropriations lapse must attach an
exception letter to the document which
certifies that publication in the Federal
Register is necessary for one of the
following reasons:
Unfunded Agencies or Programs
68157
would prevent or significantly damage
the execution of funded functions at the
agency.
Under the August 16, 1995 opinion of
the Office of Legal Counsel of the
Department of Justice (OLC),
Government Operations in the Event of
a Lapse in Appropriations, exempt
functions and services would include
activities such as those related to the
constitutional duties of the President,
food and drug inspection, air traffic
control, responses to natural or
manmade disasters, law enforcement
and supervision of financial markets.
Documents related to normal or routine
activities of Federal agencies, even if
funded under prior year appropriations,
will not be published.
In another opinion issued on
December 13, 1995, Effect of
Appropriations for Other Agencies and
Branches on the Authority to Continue
Department of Justice Functions During
the Lapse in the Department’s
Appropriations, the OLC found that the
necessary-implication exception
allowed unfunded agencies to provide
support to funded agencies or programs
under certain conditions. Based on OLC
interpretation of the December 13, 1995
opinion, as this applies to the OFR, if an
agency with current appropriations
submits a document for publication and
certifies that delaying publication until
the end of the appropriations lapse
would prevent or significantly damage
the execution of funded functions at the
agency, then publication in the Federal
Register would be a function or service
excepted under the Antideficiency Act.
At the onset of an appropriations
lapse, the OFR may suspend the regular
three-day publication schedule to
permit a limited number of exempt
personnel to process excepted
documents. Agency officials will be
informed as to the schedule for filing
and publishing individual documents.
OFR has posted frequently asked
questions and excepted letter templates
on the following website, which will be
updated as necessary:

• To safeguard human life, protect
property, or
• To provide other emergency
services consistent with the
performance of functions and services
exempted under the Antideficiency Act.
