    Pursuant to the authority vested in the Commissioner of Internal

or delay under section 6404(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code (Code):

the above divisions, and division chiefs in the Austin Compliance 
Center and may be redelegated to first line managers for abatements 
under $2,500.
    In any instance in which a Code section 6404(e)(1) claim for 
interest abatement is immediately disallowable by statute, the assigned 
interest abatement coordinator is delegated authority to deny the 
claim. This authority may not be redelegated.
    To the extent that the authority previously exercised consistent
