The Secretary of the Treasury must publish a list of certifying States
The document says “shall”Who acts: Secretary of the TreasuryHow: statuteSec. 4 in the PDF
What the document says
“The Secretary of the Treasury shall publish and maintain in the Federal Register and on the website of the Department of the Treasury a list of States that have submitted initial certifications and recertifications under paragraph (4).”
Subsection (c)(6). The list goes in two places: the Federal Register and the Treasury Department's website. It names the States that have submitted certifications, and it is to be maintained rather than published once.
What the document actually says
“The Secretary of the Treasury shall publish and maintain in the Federal Register and on the website of the Department of the Treasury a list of States that have submitted initial certifications and recertifications under paragraph (4).”
That sentence, in plain words
The Treasury must put out a list of states. The list names those that have sent in the paper. It goes on a government site and in the daily record.
What this is about
The Federal Register is where agencies print notices. The list must be kept up to date. Anyone can look up where a state stands.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
