     Re USERRA regulations.

     Hon. Robert C. Byrd,
     President pro tempore, U.S. Senate, Hart Office Building, 
         Washington, DC.
       Dear Senator Byrd: Section 304(b)(3) of the Congressional 
     Accountability Act of 1995 (CAA), 2 U.S.C. 1384(b)(3), 
     requires that, with regard to substantive regulations under 
     the CAA, after the Board has published a general notice of 
     proposed rulemaking as required by subsection (b)(1), and 
     received comments as required by subsection (b)(2), ``the 
     Board shall adopt regulations and shall transmit notice of 
     such action together with a copy of such regulations to the 
     Speaker of the House of Representatives and the President pro 
     tempore of the Senate for publication in the Congressional 
     Record on the first day on which both Houses are in session 
     following such transmittal.''
       The Board of Directors of the Office of Compliance has 
     adopted the proposed regulations in the Notice of Adoption of 
     Substantive Regulations and Transmittal for Congressional 
     Approval which accompany this transmittal letter. The Board 
     requests that the accompanying Notice, ``S'' and ``C'' 
     versions of the Adopted Regulations, and the Numbering Index 
     be published in the Senate version of the Congressional 
     Record on the first day on which both Houses are in session 
     following receipt of this transmittal. The Board also 
     requests that Congress approve the proposed Regulations, as 
     further specified in the accompanying Notice.
       Any inquiries regarding the accompanying Notice should be 
     addressed to Tamara E. Chrisler, Executive Director of the 
     Office of Compliance, 110 2nd Street, S.E., Room LA-200, 
     Washington, D.C. 20540; 202-724-9250, TDD 202-426-1912.
           Sincerely,
                                                Susan S. Robfogel,
                                  Chair of the Board of Directors.
