Not sure about the veracity of this site, but it includes the law article number so you can verify it yourself: https://www.gordondefense.com/federal-crimes/federal-criminal-cooperation-rule-3553-and-the-safety-valve/ https://www.gordondefense.com/federal-crimes/federal-crimina... > Federal Safety Valve (Title 18 United States Code Section 3553(e), United States Sentencing Commission §§ 5C1.2 and §2D1.1(b)(17)) > A person may be able to cooperate in order to receive relief under the “Safety Valve” provision of 18 U.S.C. 3553(e), USSG sections 5C1.2 and §2D1.1(b)(17). The safety valve is a particular area of importance as it is a way to receive reductions below mandatory minimum sentences
