Could you post the link to this and I'll make a legible repost.

That is from the federal register. They don't have links that work unless you sign up with them and do several searches to obtain the files. Me posting my link to it would just result in an error message.
Did you expect easily extracted info at the tip of your fingers from the feds? C'mon no; these are institutional bureaucrats
