    In subsection (a), the words ``whose grade is above first 
lieutenant'' are substituted for the words ``from among the captains or 
officers of higher grade''. The words ``in the discretion of'' and 
``from time to time, from the Corps of Engineers, by the President, for 
this duty'' are omitted as surplusage. 10:189 (last sentence) is omitted 
as obsolete.
    In subsections (a) and (b), the words ``assigned to'' are 
substituted for the word ``of'', since, under section 3063 of this 
title, officers are assigned to, rather than commissioned in, the Corps 
of Engineers.
    In subsection (b), the words ``assist that officer'' are substituted 
for the words ``act as assistants to said engineer commissioner''. The 
words ``his duties'' are substituted for the words ``the special duties 
imposed upon him''.

Engineer Commissioner of the District of Columbia.
