  - (1) Sections [197.20(a)(1)](/cfr/40/197.20.md?p=a-1) and [197.20(a)(2)](/cfr/40/197.20.md?p=a-2) of this subpart; and
  - (2) Sections [197.25(b)(1)](/cfr/40/197.25.md?p=b-1), [197.25(b)(2)](/cfr/40/197.25.md?p=b-2), and [197.30](/cfr/40/197.30.md) of this subpart, if performance assessment is used to demonstrate compliance with either or both of these sections.
