     Army entitled ``Clean Water Rule: Definition of `Waters of 
     the United States' '' (80 Fed. Reg. 37054 (June 29, 2015)) is

     Federal Water Pollution Control Act (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.) 
     and such new rule is in effect, any regulation or policy 
     revised under, or otherwise affected as a result of, the rule 
     repealed by this section shall be applied as if that repealed 
     rule had not been issued.
