Summary

When a change to a covered Coast Guard law adds, removes, moves, or renames a section or a larger part, the change must also update any analyses, tables of contents, or similar tables so they match. That automatic update does not apply if the change (or a clerical change made at the same time) expressly updates those tables, or if the change specifically says it is not covered by this rule. Covered Coast Guard law means: (1) this title; (2) any Coast Guard authorization Act that authorizes funds to be appropriated for a fiscal year to the Coast Guard; and (3) any other law that the text names as a covered Coast Guard law.
