                       TITLE 32--NATIONAL DEFENSE
 
        CHAPTER I--OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY OF DEFENSE (CONTINUED)
 
PART 203_TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE FOR PUBLIC PARTICIPATION (TAPP) IN DEFENSE 
 
Sec. 203.1  Authority.

    Part 203 is issued under the authority of section 2705 of Title 10, 
United States Code. In 1994, Congress authorized the Department of 
Defense (DoD) to develop a program to facilitate public participation by 
providing technical assistance to local community members of Restoration 
Advisory Boards (RABs) and Technical Review Committees (TRCs) (section 
326 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1995, 
Pub.L. 103-337). In 1996, Congress revised this authority (section 324 
of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1996, Pub.L. 
104-112). It is pursuant to this revised authority, which is codified as 
new subsection (3) of section 2705, that the Department of Defense 
issues this part.
