                                        - 5 -                                         
               vice Center Examination Branch in Ogden, Utah, and I                   
               have no way of knowing whether he has been delegated by                
               the Secretary to send out of [sic] such notices on the                 
               Secretary’s behalf.  So, before I do anything at all                   
               with respect to your “Notice,” I would have to see a                   
               Delegation Order from the Secretary of the Treasury                    
               delegating to Dennis L. Paiz the authority to send out                 
               Deficiency Notices.                                                    
               In addition, I would also like you to send me (or                      
               identify for me) the legislative regulations that you                  
               claim implement Code Sections 6212 and 6213.  I have                   
               also attached an excerpt from the IRS Procedures Manual                
               * * * which points out that the IRS is required to                     
               “make available to all taxpayers comprehensive, accu-                  
               rate, and timely information on the requirements of tax                
               law and regulations.”  So, pursuant to this provision                  
               from your Procedures Manual, I am asking that you                      
               identify (make available) for me the legislative regu-                 
               lations that you claim implement both Code Sections                    
               6212 and 6213 - since I have not been able to locate                   
               them.                                                                  
               Without your furnishing me with these documents and                    
               information, I will be unable to “ascertain” * * *                     
               whether the individual who sent me the Deficiency                      
               Notice was authorized to do so, and whether I am le-                   
               gally required to take any notice of it. * * *                         
               On August 7, 2000, respondent assessed petitioner’s tax, as            
          well as any penalties and interest as provided by law, for his              
          taxable year 1998.  (We shall refer to those assessed amounts, as           
          well as interest as provided by law accrued after August 7, 2000,           
          as petitioner’s unpaid liability for 1998.)                                 
               On August 7, 2000, respondent issued to petitioner a notice            
          of balance due with respect to petitioner’s unpaid liability for            
          1998.                                                                       
               On August 6, 2001, respondent issued to petitioner a final             
          notice of intent to levy and notice of your right to a hearing
