No, b/c that's in the CCA manual and on the test. There wouldn't be a need for a special bulletin to point that out.

There is a bulletin out specifically for experimental games in which the 'C' is allowed to come in and give information to the Lead as to whether or not the secondary defender was inside the arc.

Should the Lead official signal a player control foul while a secondary defender is clearly standing on or inside the restricted area, it is permissible for the Center official only, if he has definite knowledge of the location of the secondary defender at the time of the contact, to approach the Lead official and share that information in an attempt to make the correct call.
REMINDER: THIS MECHANIC ONLY APPLIES TO RESTRICTED AREA PLAYS IN GAMES USING THE EXPERIMENTAL 2-FOOT ARC AND IS NOT TO BE USED DURING REGULAR SEASON GAMES.
