The Treasury Department was created by act of September 2, 1789 (31 U.S.C. 301 and 301 note).

Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms was established by Treasury Department Order No. 221, effective July 1, 1972. The order transferred the functions, powers, and duties arising under laws relating to alcohol, tobacco, firearms, and explosives from the Internal Revenue Service to the Bureau. On December 5, 1978, Treasury Department Order No. 120-1 assigned to the Bureau responsibility for enforcing chapter 114 of title 18 of the United States Code (18 U.S.C. 2341 et seq.) relating to interstate trafficking in contraband cigarettes. With passage of the Anti-Arson Act of 1982, the Bureau was given the additional responsibility of addressing commercial arson nationwide. Bureau Headquarters is located in Washington, DC, but since the Bureau is decentralized, most of its personnel are stationed throughout the country where many of its operational functions are performed. The Bureau is responsible for enforcing and administering firearms and explosives laws, as well as those covering the production, taxation, and distribution of alcohol and tobacco products. The Bureau's objectives are to maximize compliance with and investigate violations of these laws. To achieve these goals, the Bureau is divided into two basic functions: criminal enforcement and regulatory enforcement. The objectives of criminal enforcement activities are to: --suppress illegal trafficking, possession and use of firearms, destructive devices, and explosives; --impact arson-for-profit schemes; --suppress the traffic in illicit distilled spirits; --suppress interstate trafficking in contraband cigarettes; --assist Federal, State, and local law enforcement agencies in reducing crime and violence; and --investigate narcotics traffickers who use firearms and explosives as tools of their trade, especially violent gangs. The objectives of regulatory enforcement activities are to: --determine and ensure full collection of revenue due from legal alcohol, tobacco, firearms, and ammunition manufacturing industries; --fulfill the Bureau's responsibility in ensuring product integrity and health warning statements, and in preventing commercial bribery, consumer deception, and other improper trade practices in the beverage alcohol industry; --assist other Federal, State, and local governmental agencies in the resolution of problems relating to revenue protection; --ensure that persons prohibited by law from manufacturing, importing, or dealing in alcohol, tobacco, firearms, and explosives do not obtain a license or permit; --ensure that storage facilities for explosives are safe, secure, and properly stored to avoid presenting a hazard to the public; and [[Page 463]] --ensure that an audit trail is preserved to permit the tracing of firearms used in the commission of crimes and full accountability for explosive materials.

United States Customs Service The fifth act of the first Congress, passed on July 31, 1789 (1 Stat. 29), established customs districts and authorized customs officers to collect duties on goods, wares, and merchandise imposed by the second act of the first Congress, dated July 4, 1789 (1 Stat. 24). The Bureau of Customs was established as a separate agency under the Treasury Department on March 3, 1927 (19 U.S.C. 2071) and, effective August 1, 1973, was redesignated the United States Customs Service by Treasury Department Order 165-23 of April 4, 1973. The Customs Service collects the revenue from imports and enforces customs and related laws. Customs also administers the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1654), and other customs laws. Some of the responsibilities that Customs is specifically charged with are: --assessing and collecting customs duties, excise taxes, fees, and penalties due on imported merchandise; --interdicting and seizing contraband, including narcotics and illegal drugs; --processing persons, carriers, cargo, and mail into and out of the United States; --administering certain navigation laws; and --detecting and apprehending persons engaged in fraudulent practices designed to circumvent customs and related laws; copyright, patent, and trademark provisions; quotas; and marking requirements for imported merchandise. As the principal border enforcement agency, Customs' mission has been extended over the years to assisting in the administration and enforcement of some 400 provisions of law on behalf of more than 40 Government agencies. Today, in addition to enforcing the Tariff Act of 1930 and other customs statutes, the Customs Service: --enforces export control laws and intercepts illegal high- technology and weapons exports; --cooperates with other Federal agencies and foreign governments in suppressing the traffic of illegal narcotics and pornography; --enforces reporting requirements of the Bank Secrecy Act; and --collects international trade statistics. Also, Customs enforces a wide range of requirements to protect the public, such as auto safety and emission control standards, radiation and radioactive material standards; counterfeit monetary instruments; flammable fabric restrictions; animal and plant quarantine requirements; and food, drug, and hazardous substance prohibitions. Customs is extensively involved with outside commercial and policy organizations and trade associations, and with international organizations and foreign customs services. Customs is a member of the multinational Customs Cooperation Council, the Cabinet Committee to Combat Terrorism, and the International Narcotics Control Program. In addition, Customs participates in and [[Page 465]] supports the activities and programs of various international organizations and agreements, including the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), the International Civil Aviation Organization, and the Organization of American States (OAS). Headquarters of the U.S. Customs Service is located in Washington, DC, under the supervision of the Commissioner of Customs, who is appointed by the Secretary of the Treasury. The 50 States, plus the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico, are divided into seven Customs Regions. Contained within these regions are 44 subordinate district or area offices under which there are approximately 240 ports of entry. The foreign field offices of the Customs Service are located in Bangkok, Bonn, Dublin, Hermosillo, Hong Kong, London, Mexico City, Milan, Monterrey, Ottawa, Panama City, Paris, Rome, Seoul, Singapore, Tokyo, Vienna, and The Hague. An attache represents U.S. Customs in the U.S. Mission to the European Communities in Brussels. The Customs Service also operates a Canine Enforcement Training Center at Front Royal, VA.

Bureau of Engraving and Printing The Bureau of Engraving and Printing operates on basic authorities conferred by act of July 11, 1862 (31 U.S.C. 303) and additional authorities contained in past appropriations made to the Bureau that are still in force. A working capital fund was established in accordance with the provisions of section 2 of act of August 4, 1950, as amended (31 U.S.C. 5142), which placed the Bureau on a completely reimbursable basis. The Bureau is headed by a Director, who is appointed by the Secretary of the Treasury. The Bureau of Engraving and Printing designs, prints, and finishes a large variety of security products including Federal Reserve notes, U.S. postage stamps, Treasury securities, identification cards, and certificates. It also is responsible for advising and assisting Federal agencies in the design and production of other government documents that, because of their innate value or some other reason, require security or counterfeit-deterrence characteristics. The Bureau is the largest printer of security documents in the world; over 40 billion security documents are printed annually. The Bureau's headquarters is located in Washington, DC. A second currency plant, located in Fort Worth, TX, is operational and will have the capacity to produce approximately 5 billion notes annually by 1996. For further information, contact the Office of Public Affairs, Bureau of Engraving and Printing, Department of the Treasury, Room 104-18M, Fourteenth and C Streets SW., Washington, DC 20228. Phone, 202-874-3019. [[Page 467]] Federal Law Enforcement Training Center The Federal Law Enforcement Training Center was established by Treasury Department Order No. 217, effective March 2, 1970; and reaffirmed by Treasury Department Order No. 140-01 of September 20, 1994. The Federal Law Enforcement Training Center is headed by a Director, who is appointed by the Secretary of the Treasury. The Center conducts operations at its training facility located at Glynco, GA. The Center also maintains a Washington, DC, office at 650 Massachusetts Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20226. Phone, 202-927-8940. In addition, the Center has a satellite operation located at Artesia, NM 88210 (phone, 505-748-8000). The Center is an interagency training facility serving over 70 Federal law enforcement organizations. The major training effort is in the area of basic programs to teach common areas of law enforcement skills to police and investigative personnel. The Center also conducts advanced programs in areas of common need, such as white-collar crime, the use of microcomputers as an investigative tool, advanced law enforcement photography, international banking/money laundering, marine law enforcement, and several instructor training courses. In addition to the basic and common advanced programs, the Center provides the facilities and support services for participating organizations to conduct advanced training for their own law enforcement personnel. The Center offers selective, highly specialized training programs to State and local officers as an aid in deterring crime. These programs include a variety of areas such as fraud and financial investigations, marine law enforcement, arson for profit, international banking/money laundering, and criminal intelligence analyst training. The Center develops the curriculum content and training techniques for recruit training, and advises and assists the participating organizations in producing, formulating, and operating specialized training materials and equipment. Administrative and financial activities are supervised by the Department of the Treasury. However, training policy, programs, criteria, and standards are governed by the interagency Board of Directors, comprised of senior officials from eight departments and independent agencies. For further information, contact the Public Affairs Office, Federal Law Enforcement Training Center, Department of the Treasury, Glynco, GA 31524. Phone, 912-267-2447. Financial Management Service The mission of the Financial Management Service (FMS) is to improve the quality of Government financial management. Its commitment and responsibility is to help its Government customers achieve success. It does this by linking program and financial management objectives and by providing financial services, information, and advice to its customers. FMS serves taxpayers, the Treasury Department, Federal program agencies, and Government policymakers. Working Capital Management The Service is responsible for programs to improve cash management, credit management, debt collection, and financial management systems Governmentwide. For cash management, the Service issues guidelines and regulations and assists other agencies in managing financial transactions to maximize investment earnings and reduce the interest costs of borrowed funds. For credit management, the Service issues guidelines and regulations [[Page 468]] and assists program agencies with management of credit activities, including loan programs, to improve all parts of the credit cycle, such as credit extension, loan servicing, debt collection, and write-off procedures. The Service is presently working with other agencies to improve financial management systems and the way Government handles its payments, collections, and receivables, and to take advantage of new automation technology. Payments The Service issues approximately 426 million Treasury checks and close to 407 million electronic fund transfer payments annually for Federal salaries and wages, payments to suppliers of goods and services to the Federal Government, income tax refunds, and payments under major Government programs such as social security and veterans' benefits. The Service pays all Treasury checks and reconciles them against the accounts of Government disbursing officers, receives and examines claims for checks that are cashed under forged endorsements or that are lost, stolen, or destroyed; and issues new checks on approved claims. The Service uses two electronic funds-transfer methods: the automated clearinghouses--for recurring payments such as Government benefits and salaries--and wire transfers through the Fedline System. The latter is a computer-to-computer link with the Federal Reserve System that allows for the electronic transfer of funds to virtually any financial institution in the United States. Collections The Service supervises the collection of Government receipts and operates and maintains the systems for collecting these receipts. The Service is working with all Federal agencies to improve the availability of collected funds and the reporting of collection information to Treasury. Current collection systems include the Treasury General Account System, the Treasury Tax and Loan System for withholding and other Federal tax deposits, and the Treasury National Automated Lockbox System for accelerating the processing of agency receipts. Central Accounting and Reporting The Service maintains a central system that accounts for the monetary assets and liabilities of the Treasury and tracks Government collection and payment operations. Periodic reports are prepared to show budget results, the Government's overall financial status, and other financial operations. These reports include the Daily Treasury Statement, the Monthly Treasury Statement, the Quarterly Treasury Bulletin, the annual Treasury Report, and the annual Treasury Consolidated Financial Statement.

The Internal Revenue Service is responsible for administering and enforcing the internal revenue laws and [[Page 469]] related statutes, except those relating to alcohol, tobacco, firearms, and explosives. Its mission is to collect the proper amount of tax revenue at the least cost to the public, and in a manner that warrants the highest degree of public confidence in the Service's integrity, efficiency, and fairness. To achieve that purpose, the Service: --strives to achieve the highest possible degree of voluntary compliance in accordance with the tax laws and regulations; --advises the public of their rights and responsibilities; --determines the extent of compliance and the causes of noncompliance; --properly administers and enforces the tax laws; and --continually searches for and implements new, more efficient ways of accomplishing its mission. Basic activities include: --ensuring satisfactory resolution of taxpayer complaints, providing taxpayer service and education; --determining, assessing, and collecting internal revenue taxes; --determining pension plan qualifications and exempt organization status; and --preparing and issuing rulings and regulations to supplement the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. The source of most revenues collected is the individual income tax and the social insurance and retirement taxes, with other major sources being the corporation income, excise, estate, and gift taxes. Congress first received authority to levy taxes on the income of individuals and corporations in 1913, pursuant to the 16th amendment of the Constitution. Organization Service organization is designed for maximum decentralization, consistent with the need for uniform interpretation of the tax laws and efficient utilization of resources. There are three organizational levels: the National Office; the Regional Offices; and the District Offices, Service Centers, and the Austin Compliance Center (in the Southwest Region). Districts may have local offices, the number and location of which are determined by taxpayer and agency needs. Headquarters Organization The National Office, located in Washington, DC, develops nationwide policies and programs for the administration of the internal revenue laws and provides overall direction to the field organization. The Martinsburg Computing Center in Martinsburg, WV, and the Detroit Computing Center in Detroit, MI, also are assigned to the National Office. Field Organization As a decentralized organization, most agency personnel and activities are assigned to field installations. Regional Offices There are seven Regional Offices, each headed by a Regional Commissioner, which supervise and evaluate the operations of District Offices, Service Centers, and the Austin Compliance Center.

Functions performed are: assistance and service to taxpayers, determination of tax liability by examination of tax returns, determination of pension plan qualification, collection of delinquent returns and taxes, and investigation of criminal and civil violations of internal revenue laws (except those relating to alcohol, tobacco, firearms, and explosives). Directors are responsible for the deposit of taxes collected by the District and for initial processing of original applications for admission to practice before the Internal Revenue Service and renewal issuances for those practitioners already enrolled. Local offices may be established to meet taxpayer needs and agency workload requirements.

Its mission is to borrow the money needed to operate the Federal Government; account for the resulting public debt; and to issue Treasury securities to refund maturing debt and raise new money. The Bureau fulfills its mission through six programs: commercial book-entry securities, direct access securities, savings securities, Government securities, market regulation, and public debt accounting. The Bureau auctions and issues Treasury bills, notes, and bonds and manages the U.S. Savings Bond Program. It issues, services, and redeems bonds through a nationwide network of issuing and paying agents. The Bureau also promotes the sale and retention of savings bonds through payroll savings plans and financial institutions and is supported by a network of volunteers. It provides daily and other periodic reports to account for the composition and size of the debt. In addition, the Bureau implements the regulations for the Government securities market.

Office of Thrift Supervision The Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) was established as a bureau of the Treasury Department in August 1989 and became operational in October 1989 as part of a major reorganization of the thrift regulatory structure mandated by the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act. In that act, Congress gave OTS authority to charter Federal thrift institutions and serve as the primary regulator of approximately 1,700 Federal- and State-chartered thrifts belonging to the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF). OTS' mission is to regulate savings associations to maintain the safety, soundness, and viability of the industry; and to support the industry's efforts to meet housing and other financial services needs. OTS carries out this responsibility through risk-focused supervision that includes adopting regulations governing the savings and loan industry, examining and supervising thrift institutions and their affiliates, and taking appropriate action to enforce their compliance with Federal law and regulations. In addition to overseeing thrift institutions, OTS also regulates, examines, and supervises companies that own thrifts and controls the acquisition of thrifts by such holding companies. OTS is headed by a Director appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate to serve a 5-year term. The Director also serves on the boards of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Resolution Trust Corporation, the Thrift Depositor Protection Oversight Board, and the Neighborhood Reinvestment Corporation. To carry out its mission, OTS is organized into five main divisions: Washington Operations develops national policy guidelines to clarify and implement statutes and regulations; establishes programs to implement new policies and laws; and develops and maintains surveillance systems that monitor the condition of the industry and assist in identifying emerging supervisory problem areas. It also develops and maintains financial management and information systems; maintains human resources programs; and performs other related functions. Regional Operations examines and supervises thrift institutions through five regional offices to ensure the safety and soundness of the industry, and to promote housing and other financial services in areas with the greatest need. It also oversees the training and development of Federal thrift regulators through accredited programs. The regional offices are headquartered in Jersey City, NJ; Atlanta, GA; Chicago, IL; Dallas, TX; and San Francisco, CA. Chief Counsel provides a full range of legal services to the agency, including drafting regulations, representing the agency in court, and taking enforcement actions against savings institutions that [[Page 476]] violate laws or regulations. This office also acts on corporate filings required by the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. Congressional Affairs interacts with members of Congress, congressional staff, and committee members on behalf of OTS to accomplish the legislative objectives of the Office. This division disseminates information to the Congress pertaining to OTS' supervisory, regulatory, and enforcement activities and policies, and manages congressional-liaison programs. Public Affairs oversees dissemination of information concerning OTS regulations, policies, and key developments within the Office by establishing and maintaining effective liaisons with the media, the general public, the thrift industry, Government agencies, and other key constituencies. It convenes press conferences and distributes news releases. The division also maintains an archive of business records and documented actions of OTS and its predecessor, the Federal Home Loan Bank Board; responds to Freedom of Information requests; and maintains a public reference room for viewing securities filing and other public documents. OTS is a nonappropriated agency and, thus, uses no tax money to fund its operations. Its expenses are met by fees and assessments on the thrift institutions it regulates.
