FORMAT NOTE

Because HTML does not easily format for two columns, unclassified information is designated by "a" and the label "unclassified"; classified information is designated by "b" and the label "unclassified" and, where applicable, follows the unclassified information in a given subject area. Format and Use

Footnotes
