                    CHAPTER 17--MISCELLANEOUS MATTERS
 
Sec. 450e. Authority of designated employees; retroactive 
        revocation of delegation
        
    Whenever a delegation is made under section 450d of this title, all 
provisions of law shall be construed as if the regulatory function or 
the part thereof delegated had (to the extent of the delegation) been 
vested by law in the individual to whom the delegation is made, instead 
of in the Secretary of Agriculture. A revocation of delegation shall not 
be retroactive, and each regulatory function or part thereof performed 
(within the scope of the delegation) by such individual prior to the 
revocation shall be considered as having been performed by the 
Secretary.
