Coverage contract

status · reviewed: The complete current 7 CFR 360.200 designation section and its explicit Cuscuta and Orobanche exception rows were successfully parsed. Exact same-rank publication is narrower than the law's stated subordinate-taxon reach; higher-rank applicability needs a reviewed target projection.

Federal noxious weed is a legal designation, not an ecological degree or a FireApproved fire-performance classification. Section 360.200 states that a named taxon includes its subordinate taxa and supplies explicit exceptions.

The exact current eCFR XML and supplemental APHIS PDF are committed for reproducibility. Snapshot hashes, dates, terms, and the no-automatic- subordinate-projection policy are recorded in docs/research/federal-noxious-weed-source.yaml.
