(1)by his suggestion, invention, superior accomplishment, or other personal effort contributes to the efficiency, economy, or other improvement of Government operations or achieves a significant reduction in paperwork; or
(2)performs an exceptionally meritorious special act or service in the public interest in connection with or related to his official employment.
A Presidential award may be in addition to an agency award under section 4503 of this title.

The words “In instances determined by the President to warrant such action” are omitted as surplusage. The word “employee” is substituted for “civilian officers and employees of the Government” in view of the definition of “employee” in section 4501.
Standard changes are made to conform with the definitions applicable and the style of this title as outlined in the preface to the report.
