Editorial Notes
References in TextThis subchapter, referred to in text, was in the original “this subtitle” and was translated as reading “this part” meaning part D of title I of division C of Pub. L. 100180 which enacted this subchapter, to reflect the probable intent of Congress because title I did not contain subtitles.
