The Secretary may have another federal agency help run this part of the law through a formal agreement. Whoever administers it can write the rules needed to carry it out, and the first rules can take effect immediately as interim final regulations.

(a) Administration by agreement: The Secretary may hand off administration of any or all provisions of this part to another appropriate federal agency, using a Memorandum of Agreement with that agency's head. (b) Regulations: Whoever administers this part or its provisions — whether the Secretary directly, or another agency head under an agreement in (a) — may issue whatever implementing regulations are necessary and appropriate. The first set of regulations may be interim final rules, meaning they can take effect right away.
