(b), was in the original “this part”, which has been translated as reading in the original “this chapter” meaning chapter XIV of title II of Pub. L. 98473 to reflect the probable intent of Congress because chapter XIV of title II of Pub. L. 98473, which comprises this subchapter, does not contain parts.
