In this section, the title “Secretary of Commerce” is substituted for “Chief of the Weather Bureau” in section 10(b)–(d), and for “Chief of the Weather Bureau” and “Weather Bureau” in section 12, of the International Aviation Facilities Act (ch. 473, 62 Stat. 454) because of sections 1 and 2 of Reorganization Plan No. 2 of 1965 (eff. July 13, 1965, 79 Stat. 1318).
In subsection (a), before clause (1), the words “do and perform, by contract or otherwise, all acts and things necessary or incident to” and “pursuant to this chapter or any other provision of law” are omitted as surplus. In clause (1), the words “from time to time” and “by construction, installation, reengineering, relocation, or otherwise” are omitted as surplus.

The words “facilities and services sold or provided” are substituted for “of the fuel, oil, equipment, food, supplies, services, shelter, or other assistance or services sold or furnished” for consistency and to eliminate unnecessary words. The words “under subsection (a)(3) and
(4)of this section” are added for clarity. The words “if any” are omitted as surplus. The words “deposited in the Treasury as” are substituted for “credited to” for clarity and consistency in the revised title and with other titles of the Code.
In subsection (c), the words “use personnel and facilities of the United States Government most advantageously and without unnecessary duplication” are substituted for “to the end that personnel and facilities of existing United States Government agencies shall be utilized to the fullest possible advantage and not be unnecessarily duplicated” to eliminate unnecessary words. The word “request” is substituted for “arrange for” for clarity. The words “department, agency, or instrumentality of the Government” are substituted for “other United States Government agencies” for consistency in the revised title and with other titles of the Code.
