Reviewer note: Document sha256: 1468db4f360277e6ae9fdcc7d49e10d85ed72f680fe0ace23f48aed259dae425 (203716 bytes). BenchPath harvested this circuit itself because no research corpus existed for it. Extraction is conservative: mandatory-language sentences only, so this rule is a faithful subset of the order, never a summary of it. Confidence set to medium 2026-09-08 (H3 re-verification): the live official document no longer carries this text verbatim — see the open change_detected task on its source. Verbatim from the order's own text layer, harvested 2026-07-24; whitespace normalised only. No OCR was used. Only sentences containing mandatory language (shall, must, may not, no later than, within N) are reproduced — the full document is in custody and is the controlling text.
