Conforming or Non-conforming?

So... I'm trying to wrap my mind around what the USGA says about determining whether or not a club is conforming or non-conforming. If a clubhead cannot be found on either list, is it conforming or non-conforming (assuming the clubhead was manufactured after 1999)?

Also... is it true that the clubhead has to be on the conforming list in order to be played in a USGA event? Or does it just have to NOT be on the non-conforming list?

(I sorta feel like that red zone/white zone arguement from "Airplane")

If it's not on the conforming list...I would assume it's illegal.

Im pretty sure it is the other way around....as long as its not on the non conforming list its good to go. This puts into place many of the prototype drivers that have not had a chance to be brought to usga panel. They still can be tested at the tour for cor limits/moi , but have not been sent to be tested before the panel. This is on the usga website somewhere and that will clear it all up.
