DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Notice of Interim Assignment of Departmental Duties Retained 
Following Congressional Action With Respect to the Elimination of the

    By memorandum effective April 26, 1996, I have delegated authority 
and assigned responsibility to Charles L. Smith, Deputy Assistant 
Secretary, for performing all of the following duties prescribed under 
Secretary's Orders 2-93, 58 FR 42578, and 2-95, 60 FR 13602:
    (1) The Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959, as 
amended, 29 U.S.C. 401, et seq.;
    (2) Section 701 (Standards of Conduct for Labor Organizations) of 
the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978, 5 U.S.C. 7120;
    (3) Section 1017 of the Foreign Service Act of 1980, 22 U.S.C. 
4117;
    (4) Section 1209 of the Postal Reorganization Act of 1970, 39 
U.S.C. 1209;
    (5) the employee protection provisions of the Federal Transit law, 
as codified at 49 U.S.C. 5333(b) and related provisions';
    (6) Section405 (a), (b), (c), and (e) of the Rail Passenger Service 
Act of 1970, 45 U.S.C. 565 (a), (b), (c), and (e);
    (7) Section 43(d) of the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978, repealed 
and reenacted at 49 U.S.C. 42101-42103; and
    (8) Executive Order 12954, March 8, 1995, 60 FR 13023 to the extent 
that the exercise of authority or responsibilities under this Order is 
consistent with applicable court decisions.
    I currently anticipate that this delegation of authority will be 
superseded at the beginning of fiscal year 1997. Nonetheless, this 
delegation will remain in effect until a further delegation of these 
duties, or other notice, is executed by me. Any of the above duties may 
be redelegated, as appropriate, by him.

    Signed at Washington, D.C. this 8th day of May 1996
Robert B. Reich,
Secretary of Labor.
