The Department of the Treasury performs four basic functions: 
formulating and recommending economic, financial, tax, and fiscal 
policies; serving as financial agent for the U.S. Government; enforcing 
the law; and manufacturing coins and currency.

The Treasury Department was created by act of September 2, 1789 (31 
U.S.C. 301 and 301 note). Many subsequent acts have figured in the 
development of the Department, delegating new duties to its charge and 
establishing the numerous bureaus and divisions that now comprise the 
Treasury.
Secretary  As a major policy adviser to the President, the Secretary has 
primary responsibility for formulating and recommending domestic and 
international financial, economic, and tax policy; participating in the 
formulation of broad fiscal policies that have general significance for 
the economy; and managing the public debt. The Secretary also oversees 
the activities of the Department in carrying out its major law 
enforcement responsibility; in serving as the financial agent for the 
U.S. Government; and in manufacturing coins, currency, and other 
products for customer agencies. The Secretary also serves as the 
Government's chief financial officer.

Policy assists policymakers in the determination of economic policies. 
The Office:

Financial Institutions exercises policy direction and control over 
Department activities relating to the substance of proposed legislation 
pertaining to the general activities and regulation of private financial 
intermediaries and relating to other Federal regulatory agencies.

the administration of the Government's fiscal affairs. It manages the 
cash position of the Treasury and projects and monitors ``debt subject-
to-limit;'' directs the performance of the fiscal agency functions of 
the Federal Reserve Banks; conducts governmentwide accounting and cash

States was established on September 6, 1777. The Treasurer was 
originally charged with the receipt and custody of Government funds, but 
many of these functions have been assumed by different bureaus of the 
Department of the Treasury. In 1981, the Treasurer was assigned 
responsibility for oversight of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing and 
the United States Mint. The Treasurer reports to the Secretary through 
the Assistant Secretary for Management/Chief Financial Officer.
Treasury Inspector General  The Treasury Inspector General for Tax 
Administration (TIGTA) was established in January 1999, in accordance 
with the Internal Revenue Service Restructuring and Reform Act of 1998, 
to provide independent oversight of the Internal Revenue Service 
programs and activities. TIGTA is charged with monitoring the Nation's 
tax laws to ensure the IRS acts with efficiency, economy, and 
effectiveness toward program accomplishment; ensuring compliance with 
applicable laws and regulations, preventing, detecting, and deterring 
fraud, waste, and abuse; investigating activities or allegations related 
to fraud, waste, and abuse by IRS personnel; and protecting the IRS 
against attempts to corrupt or threaten its employees.

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 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.
    The Office regulates national banks by its power to examine banks; 
approves or denies applications for new bank charters, branches, or 
mergers; takes enforcement action--such as bank closures--against banks 
that are not in compliance with laws and regulations; and issues rules, 
regulations, and interpretations on banking practices.
    The Office supervises approximately 2,100 national banks, including 
their trust activities and overseas operations. Each bank is examined 
annually through a nationwide staff of approximately 1,900 bank 
examiners supervised in 4 district offices. The Office is independently 
funded through assessments of the assets of national banks.

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. Operations are financed by a revolving fund established 
in 1950 in accordance with Public Law 81-656. The Bureau is headed by a 
Director who is selected by the Secretary of the Treasury.
    The Bureau designs, prints, and finishes all of the Nation's paper 
currency and many other security documents, 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 also operates a second currency manufacturing plant in 
Fort Worth, TX (9000 Blue Mound Road, 76131). Phone, 817-231-4000.

Financial Management Service

The Financial Management Service (FMS) provides central payment services 
to Federal program agencies, operates the Federal Government's 
collections and deposit systems, provides governmentwide accounting and 
reporting services, and manages the collection of delinquent debt owed 
to the Federal Government. FMS has four regional financial centers 
located in Texas, Missouri, Pennsylvania, and California and one debt 
collection center in Alabama.
Accounting   The Service gathers and publishes governmentwide financial 
information that is used by the public and private sectors to monitor 
the Government's financial status and establish fiscal and monetary 
policies. These publications include the Daily Treasury Statement, the 
Monthly Treasury Statement, the Treasury Bulletin, the U.S. Government 
Annual Report, and the Financial Report of the U.S. Government.

Collections  FMS administers the world's largest collection system, 
gathering more than $2.2 trillion annually through a network of more 
than 10,000 financial institutions. It also manages the collection of 
Federal revenues such as individual and corporate income tax deposits, 
customs duties, loan repayments, fines, and proceeds from leases.
    FMS and IRS launched the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System 
(www.eftps.gov), which allows individuals and businesses to pay Federal 
taxes through the Internet. EFTPS-OnLine also provides such features as 
an instant, printable acknowledgment for documenting each transaction, 
the ability to schedule advance payments, and access to payment history.
    The Treasury Offset Program is one of the methods used to collect 
delinquent debt. FMS uses the program to withhold Federal payments, such 
as Federal income tax refunds, Federal salary payments, and Social 
Security benefits, to recipients with delinquent debts, including past-
due child support obligations and State and Federal income tax debt.
Electronic Commerce  Through its electronic money program, FMS tests new 
payments and collection

[[Page 336]]

technologies using the Internet and card technology, as well as related 
technologies such as digital signatures and biometrics. FMS has 
initiated electronic money pilot programs to help Federal agencies 
modernize their payments and collection activities. Examples include 
stored-value cards used on military bases and in Government hospitals, 
electronic checks, point-of-sale check truncations, and Internet credit 
card collection programs.
Payments  Each year, FMS disburses nearly one billion non-Defense 
payments, with a dollar value of more than $1.7 trillion, to a wide 
variety of recipients, such as those who receive Social Security, IRS 
tax refunds, and veterans benefits. For fiscal year 2008, nearly 79 
percent of these transactions were issued by electronic funds transfer. 
The remainder of FMS payments is disbursed by check.

Internal Revenue Service

The Office of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue was established by 
act of July 1, 1862 (26 U.S.C. 7802). 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, by efficiently applying 
the tax law with integrity and fairness. To achieve that purpose, the 
IRS:
    --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 the following:
    --ensuring satisfactory resolution of taxpayer complaints and 
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. Other major sources are 
corporate 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.

United States Mint

The establishment of a mint was authorized by act of April 2, 1792 (1 
Stat. 246). The Bureau of the Mint was established by act of February 
12, 1873 (17 Stat. 424), and recodified on September 13, 1982 (31 U.S.C. 
304, 5131). The name was changed to United States Mint by Secretarial 
order dated January 9, 1984.
    The primary mission of the Mint is to produce an adequate volume of 
circulating coinage for the Nation to conduct its trade and commerce. 
The Mint also produces and sells numismatic coins, American Eagle gold 
and silver bullion coins, and national medals. In addition, the Fort 
Knox Bullion Depository is the primary storage facility for the Nation's 
gold bullion.
    The U.S. Mint maintains sales centers at the Philadelphia and Denver 
Mints and at Union Station in Washington, DC. Public tours are 
conducted, with free admission, at the Philadelphia and Denver Mints.

The Bureau of the Public Debt was established on June 30, 1940, pursuant 
to the Reorganization Act of 1939 (31 U.S.C. 306).
    The Bureau's mission is to borrow the money needed to operate the 
Federal Government, account for the resulting public debt, and provide

for the Government securities market. These regulations provide for 
investor protection while maintaining a fair and liquid market for 
Government securities.
