American flag, postmarked 1917.
    The bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) is the only eagle unique 
to North America. Admired for its majestic appearance and self-reliance, 
it became the national symbol in 1782 when the Second Continental 
Congress approved the design of the Nation's official seal. The Great 
Seal of the United States includes a shield that, according to Secretary 
Charles Thomson's journal of the Congress for June 20, 1782, is ``borne 
on the breast of an American Eagle without any supporters, to denote 
that the United States of America ought to rely on their own virtue.''
    Although the bald eagle has endured as an American icon, by the 
1960s only an estimated 450 nesting pairs remained in the conterminous 
(lower 48) States. Farmers and ranchers aggressively hunted the bird to 
protect their livestock. In 1940 Congress passed the Bald Eagle 
Protection Act which made it illegal to kill, harass, possess without a 
permit, or sell bald eagles. Still, the population continued to decline, 
largely due to the introduction of DDT and other pesticides, which 
contaminated the lakes and streams where the eagle fished. In 1967 the 
Department of the Interior declared a southern subspecies of the bald 
eagle as ``endangered,'' signifying it was perilously close to 
extinction. In 1978 the Fish and Wildlife Service extended this 
designation to include all bald eagles in the conterminous United 
States.
    Through public information campaigns and subsequent Federal 
conservation efforts, including a ban on DDT, the prospects for the bald 
eagle have improved. In July 1995 the Fish and Wildlife Service upgraded 
the bald eagle's status from ``endangered'' to ``threatened.'' In July 
1999, with approximately 6,000 nesting pairs estimated to be living in 
the conterminous United States, the Service issued a proposal to list 
the bald eagle as a ``recovered'' species.
    For more information about the bald eagle's status as an endangered 
species, as well as related Federal regulations, visit the Fish and 
Wildlife Service Internet site at www.fws.gov.

Preface

As the official handbook of the Federal Government, The United States 
Government Manual provides comprehensive information on the agencies of 
the legislative, judicial, and executive branches. The Manual also 
includes information on quasi-official agencies; international 
organizations in which the United States participates; and boards, 
commissions, and committees.
    A typical agency description includes a list of principal officials, 
a summary statement of the agency's purpose and role in the Federal 
Government, a brief history of the agency, including its legislative or 
executive authority, a description of its programs and activities, and a 
``Sources of Information'' section. This last section provides 
information on consumer activities, contracts and grants, employment, 
publications, and many other areas of public interest.
    The 2001/2002 Manual was prepared by the Presidential and 
Legislative Publications Unit, Office of the Federal Register. Maxine L. 
Hill was Lead Editor, Karen L. Ashlin was Managing Editor, and Karen A. 
Thornton was Chief Editor, assisted by Brad Brooks, Chris Gushman, and 
Jennifer Mangum.

The Federal Register and Its Special Editions

The Manual is published as a special edition of the Federal Register 
(see 1 CFR 9.1). Its focus is on programs and activities. Persons 
interested in detailed organizational structure, the regulatory 
documents of an agency, or Presidential documents should refer to the 
Federal Register or one of its other special editions, described below.
    Issued each Federal working day, the Federal Register provides a 
uniform system for publishing Presidential documents, regulatory 
documents with general applicability and legal effect, proposed rules, 
notices, and documents required to be published by statute.
    The Code of Federal Regulations is an annual codification of the 
general and permanent rules published in the Federal Register. The Code 
is divided into 50 titles that represent broad areas subject to Federal 
regulation. The Code is kept up to date by the individual issues of the 
Federal Register.
    The Weekly Compilation of Presidential Documents serves as a timely, 
up-to-date reference source for the public policies and activities of 
the President. It contains remarks, news conferences, messages, 
statements, and other Presidential material of a public nature issued by 
the White House during the week reported.
    A companion publication to the Weekly Compilation is the Public 
Papers of the Presidents, which contains public Presidential documents 
and speeches in convenient book form. Volumes of the Public Papers have 
been published for every President since Herbert Hoover, with the 
exception of Franklin D. Roosevelt, whose papers were published 
privately.

Other Office of the Federal Register Publications

The Office of the Federal Register publishes slip laws, which are 
pamphlet prints of each public and private law enacted by Congress. Slip 
laws are compiled annually as the United States Statutes at Large. The 
Statutes volumes contain all public and private laws and concurrent 
resolutions enacted during a session of Congress;


[[Page iv]]
recommendations for executive, legislative, and judicial salaries; 
reorganization plans; proposed and ratified amendments to the 
Constitution; and Presidential proclamations. Included with many of 
these documents are sidenotes, U.S. Code and statutes citations, and a 
summary of their legislative histories.
