Assignment:
The President is the administrative head of the executive branch of the Government, which includes numerous agencies, both temporary and permanent, as well as the 15 executive departments plus cabinet level positions accorded by the President. Your assignment is to identify the 15 permanent Executive Departments plus one aIDitional non-permanent department dealing with the environment that makes up the current Presidents Cabinet. This assignment is designed to help you understand the mission, purpose and organization of the U.S. Government Agencies that promulgate and enforce rules and regulations. The Presidents Cabinet is composed of the Vice President and the heads, known as Secretaries, of the 15 executive departments and one agency Administrator. The 15 executive departments make up the majority of the Federal Agencies that promulgate (make) rules and regulations through the rule making process. The scope and application of government regulations provide the rules of the road for the public, government and private sector to follow.
Prepare a Power Point (OPT) presentation summarizing the content requirement below for each of the 15 Executive Departments that make up the Presidents Cabinet plus the one aIDitional agency. For each Executive Department, create a OPT slide and provide the following minimum information:
Create a slide for each of the Executive Departments. Identify the name of the current Secretary or Head of the Department as of 1/23/2014. Note that the Government Manual may not have the current head of the agency so you will need to search the department web site to verify the current agency head as these positions change.
Summarize in your own words the mission and purpose of each of the Executive Departments.
Identify the enabling law (U.S. Code) that authorized the creation or establishment of the department. The US Code must be formatted as follows: (Title, US, and Section). For example, Title 30 of the US Code Section 1251 would be properly formatted as (30 US 1251). The US Government Manual or official agency Website will identify the authorization law that created the department and authorization to create regulations.
Provide the year the department enabling law was enacted. This will be the year the department was created by law. Note: the year the department was created may not be in the Government Manual, and you will have to do some research to find it.
Provide the official website aIDress for the Department as found in the Government Manual.

A brief description as short bullet points, in your own words, of the main function for each of the above organizations.
Your determination of whether each exercises regulatory authority for oil and gas operations in the Outer Continental Shelf (COS) waters of the Gulf of Mexico, state lands, and/or inland waters.
Your determination of whether OSHA, BEES, and/or USCG regulate Mod Us. Hint: See Nous and interpretations posted in the Module 1 block to assist with determining who exercises their authority in COS waters. You should understand that there is a difference between having and exercising regulatory authority.
Identify the title(s) of the CF (Code of Federal Regulations) where all regulations authorized by the US code are promulgated by the agency or bureau in the CF. You can find this information by using the Table of Parallel Authorities. Use the following link below to location this information.
Organize the CF title number sequentially. For example, let us say you were looking for all the regulations promulgated under 1 U.S.C. The correct answer would be all regulations contained in the CF for 1 U.S.C are located in the following CF titles: 1, 22 and 33. If you wanted to drill down to the exact part then the answer would be Title 1 Part 2, Title 22 Part 181 and Title 32 Part
