What This Page Covers, and What It Leaves Out

The one thing the section does: add a termination rule tied to when construction begins.

Nothing in the section is left out. It adds one subsection.

The section works by adding a subsection to section 179D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, which is not indexed here, so what the deduction gives cannot be checked against anything on this site.
