Reform and Restructuring Act of 1998, as contained in Public Law 105-
277, IDCA was abolished and USAID was established as an Executive 
agency, effective April 1, 1999.
    Elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register, USAID has amended 
chapter II of title 22 of the Code of Federal Regulations to delete the 
reference to IDCA. The abolition of IDCA does not affect the status and 
validity of USAID regulations, directives, rulings, policies; they 
continue in effect.
