The Treasurer reports to the Secretary through the Assistant Secretary for Management/Chief Financial Officer. For further information concerning the Departmental Offices, contact the Public Affairs Office, Department of the Treasury, 1500 Pennsylvania Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20220. Phone, 202-622-2960. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms The mission of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF) is to reduce violent crime, collect revenue, and protect the public through criminal law enforcement, regulatory enforcement, and tax collection. The Bureau was established by Department of Treasury Order No. 221, effective July 1, 1972, which 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, Department of Treasury Order No. 120-1 assigned to ATF the responsibility of 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, ATF was given the additional responsibility of addressing commercial arson nationwide. ATF is also responsible for enforcing the provisions of the ``Brady law'' concerning the transfer of handguns (107 Stat. 1536), which was enacted in 1993. The 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. ATF 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. In collaborative partnerships with government agencies, industry, academia, and others, ATF works to reduce crime and violence by safeguarding the public from arson and explosives incidents, denying criminals access to firearms, removing violent offenders from communities, and preventing violence through community outreach; and to maintain a sound revenue management and regulatory system which reduces the burden on industry, collects revenues which are rightfully due, and uses electronic commerce. ATF also works to protect the public and prevent consumer deception by assuring the integrity of the products, people, and companies in the marketplace; ensuring compliance with laws and regulations through education, inspection, and investigations; and informing the public about ATF regulations and product safety using various media.

Office of the Comptroller of the Currency [For the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency statement of organization, see the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 12, Part 4] The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) was created February 25, 1863 (12 Stat. 665), as a bureau of the Department of the Treasury. Its primary mission is to regulate national banks. The Office is headed by the Comptroller, who is appointed for a 5-year term by the President with the advice and consent of the Senate. By statute, the Comptroller also serves a concurrent term as Director of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The Office regulates national banks by its power to examine banks; approve or deny applications for new bank charters, branches, or mergers; take enforcement action--such as bank closures--against banks that are not in compliance with laws and regulations; and issue rules, regulations, and interpretations on banking practices. The Office supervises approximately 2,700 national banks, including their trust activities and overseas operations. [[Page 457]] Each bank is examined annually through a nationwide staff of approximately 1,800 bank examiners supervised in 6 district offices. The Office is independently funded through assessments of the assets of national banks.

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 enforces customs and related laws and collects the revenue from imports. 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: --interdicting and seizing contraband, including narcotics and illegal drugs; --assessing and collecting customs duties, excise taxes, fees, and penalties due on imported merchandise; --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: --cooperates with other Federal agencies and foreign governments in suppressing the traffic of illegal narcotics and pornography; --enforces export control laws and intercepts illegal high- technology and weapons exports; --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 World Customs Organization, the Cabinet Committee to Combat Terrorism, and the International Narcotics Control Program. In addition, Customs participates in and supports the activities and programs of various international organizations and agreements, including the World Trade Organization, 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 [[Page 458]] appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate. The 50 States, plus the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico, are divided into 20 customs management center areas, under which there are approximately 300 ports of entry. The foreign field offices of the Customs Service are located in Bangkok, Beijing, Bonn, Brussels, Caracas, Hermosillo, Hong Kong, London, Merida, Mexico City, Milan, Monterrey, Montevideo, 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 the 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 and reports to the Treasurer of the United States. At the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, the timeless artistry of the engraver is combined with the most [[Page 459]] technologically advanced printing equipment to produce United States securities. The Bureau designs, prints, and finishes all of the Nation's paper currency (Federal Reserve notes), as well as U.S. postage stamps, Treasury securities, certificates, and other security products, including White House invitations and military identification cards. 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 for other reasons, require security or counterfeit-deterrence characteristics. The Bureau operates two facilities: the headquarters in Washington, DC, and a second currency manufacturing plant in Fort Worth, TX. For further information, contact the Office of Communications, Bureau of Engraving and Printing, Department of the Treasury, Room 533M, Fourteenth and C Streets SW., Washington, DC 20228. Phone, 202-874-3019. 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 well as international law enforcement 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.

Financial Management Service The mission of the Financial Management Service (FMS) is to develop and manage Federal financial systems to move the Government's cash flows efficiently, effectively, and securely. It supports other Federal agencies by serving as the Government's primary disbursing agent; collections agent; accountant and reporter of financial information; and collector of delinquent Federal debt. 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 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 370 million Treasury checks and close to 500 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 FMS is responsible for administering the world's largest collections system, gathering approximately $1.5 trillion annually. 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 Electronic Federal Tax Payment System, 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. FMS also retains the services of private debt collection agencies and utilizes standard private sector techniques to collect delinquent debts on behalf of agencies. 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 [[Page 461]] Statement, the Quarterly Treasury Bulletin, the annual Treasury Report, and the annual Treasury Consolidated Financial Statement.

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is responsible for administering and enforcing the internal revenue laws and 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 and Service Centers. 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. Also assigned to the National Office are the Martinsburg Computing Center in Martinsburg, WV; the Detroit Computing Center in Detroit, [[Page 462]] MI; and the 10 Service Centers (located in various States across the country). Field Organization As IRS is a decentralized organization, most agency personnel and activities are assigned to field installations. Regional Offices There are four Regional Offices, each headed by a Regional Commissioner, which supervise and evaluate the operations of District Offices.

Districts may encompass several States, an entire State, or a certain number of counties within a State, depending on population. Programs of the District include taxpayer service, examination, collection, criminal investigation, and, in some districts, pension plans and exempt organizations. 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 are 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. These regulations provide for investor protection while maintaining a fair and liquid market for Government securities. The Bureau of the Public Debt was established on June 30, 1940, pursuant to the Reorganization Act of 1939 (31 U.S.C. 306). Principal offices of the Bureau are located in Washington, DC, and Parkersburg, WV.

Created by the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA), its mission is to effectively and efficiently supervise thrift institutions to maintain the safety and soundness of institutions and to ensure the viability of the industry. It also supports the industry's efforts to meet housing and other community credit and financial services needs. The Office works to: --maintain and enhance its risk-focused, differential, and proactive approach to the supervision of institutions; --improve credit availability by encouraging safe and sound housing and other lending in those areas of greatest need; and --enhance competitiveness of the thrift industry. The Office is headed by a Director appointed by the President, with the advice and consent of the Senate, for a 5-year term. The Director is responsible for the overall direction and policy of the agency. To carry out its mission, OTS is organized in five main program areas: Supervision, Research and Analysis, External Affairs, Chief Counsel, and Administration. Activities of OTS include: --examining and supervising thrift institutions in the five OTS regions to ensure the safety and soundness of the industry; --ensuring that thrifts comply with consumer protection laws and regulations; --conducting a regional quality assurance program to ensure consistent applications of policies and procedures; --developing national policy guidelines to enhance statutes and [[Page 468]] regulations and to establish programs to implement new policy and law; --issuing various financial reports, including the quarterly report on the financial condition of the thrift industry; --preparing regulations, bulletins, other policy documents, congressional testimony, and official correspondence on matters relating to the condition of the thrift industry, interest rate risk, financial derivatives, and economic issues; --and prosecuting enforcement actions relating to thrift institutions. The Office of Thrift Supervision 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.
