Sec. 0.735-8  Limitations on private activities and interests.

    It is the policy of the Department to place as few limitations as 
possible on private activities or interests consistent with the public 
trust and the effective performance of the official business of the 
Department. There is no general statutory or regulatory limitation on 
the conduct of private activities for compensation by officers or 
employees of the Department, when the private activity is not connected 
with any interest of the Government. When the private activity does not 
touch upon some interest, it may be conducted if it falls outside 
applicable statutory limitations and regulatory limitations.
