I thought there might be something to the missing tests. Being #s I thought maybe was an EO# so did a little digging.

I want to say I am not an Autist so forgive me if this is off the wall or stupid but I did find some interesting things.

I entered the first 4 missing tests and this is what I got when adding EO in front (EO 1249) in a search.

EO 12498 came up https://www.archives.gov/federal-register/codification/executive-order/12498.html

Executive Order 12498–Regulatory planning process

Source: The provisions of Executive Order 12498 of Jan. 4, 1985, appear at 50 FR 1036, 3 CFR, 1985 Comp., p. 323, unless otherwise noted.

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and laws of the United States of America, and in order to create a coordinated process for developing on an annual basis the Administration's Regulatory Program, establish Administration regulatory priorities, increase the accountability of agency heads for the regulatory actions of their agencies, provide for Presidential oversight of the regulatory process, reduce the burdens of existing and future regulations, minimize duplication and conflict of regulations, and enhance public and Congressional understanding of the Administration's regulatory objectives, it is hereby ordered as follows: (please see link for the rest)

There is a link to EO 12291 - Federal Regulation in the document and here is the the first paragraph of that.

Executive Order 12291–Federal regulation https://www.archives.gov/federal-register/codification/executive-order/12291.html

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and laws of the United States of America, and in order to reduce the burdens of existing and future regulations, increase agency accountability for regulatory actions, provide for presidential oversight of the regulatory process, minimize duplication and conflict of regulations, and insure well-reasoned regulations, it is hereby ordered as follows: (please see link for the rest)

It looks to me that the president can get rid of Unnecessary and duplicate laws through the Director of Office Management and Budget. This would be Mick Mulvaney.

Is this a Coincedecnce? I think not but I will let you all decide if it is notable or not.

Oh and the other 3 #s that are out of order I thought might be EOs written in those years and since not in order I thought maybe by year in a certain order. Not really sure about that but would be a good guess I think.
