Final rule.
The Department of the Navy
(DoN) is amending its certifications and
exemptions under the International
Regulations for Preventing Collisions at
Sea, 1972 (72 COLREGS), to reflect that
the Deputy Assistant Judge Advocate
General (DAJAG) (Admiralty and
Maritime Law) has determined that USS
MONTGOMERY (LCS 8) is a vessel of
the Navy which, due to its special
construction and purpose, cannot fully
comply with certain provisions of the 72
COLREGS without interfering with its
special function as a naval ship. The
intended effect of this rule is to warn
mariners in waters where 72 COLREGS
apply.
DATES: This rule is effective January 22,
2016 and is applicable beginning
December 15, 2015.

Stewardship End Result Contracting

Final rule.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The United States Department
of Agriculture (Department) is issuing
this rule to carry out Stewardship End
Result Contracting Projects. This
authority originated on a limited pilot
basis and then was expanded through a
succession of subsequent amendments
and continued into Fiscal Year 2014.
The enactment of section 8205 of the
Agricultural Act of 2014 (2014 Act)
establishes permanent authority to
conduct Stewardship End Result
Contracting projects by adding a new
section 604 to the Healthy Forests
Restoration Act of 2003 (HFRA).
Accordingly, this final rule sets forth the
regulations implementing this
permanent authority. These regulations
generally follow the Forest Service
policy and processes that have been in
place for some time. The regulations
revise existing Forest Service policy to
provide greater uniformity in the
administration of the various
mechanisms used by the Forest Service
to implement stewardship projects.
DATES: This rule is effective January 22,
2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

SUMMARY:
1. Background
Beginning in 1998 with the enactment
of section 347 of the Omnibus
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:27 Jan 21, 2016
Jkt 238001
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 1999
(Pub. L. 105–277), the Forest Service has
been authorized to enter into
stewardship projects since 1999 (16
U.S.C. 2104 note); however, this
authority was not permanent. The 2014
Act makes the authority permanent
through an amendment to HFRA. With
limited exceptions, the permanent
authority is identical to the temporary
authority. Section 604(b) of HFRA
provides that the Forest Service, ‘‘via
agreement or contract as appropriate,
may enter into stewardship contracting
projects with private persons or other
public or private entities to perform
services to achieve land management
goals for the national forests and the
public lands that meet local and rural
community needs.’’ Section 604(d)(1)
provides that a source for performance
of a stewardship agreement or contract
must be selected on a best value basis.
Section 604(d)(4) further provides that
the Forest Service can apply the value
of timber or other forest products
removed under the project as an offset
against the value of the services
received by the Forest Service. In
accordance with section 604(e), the
Forest Service can collect funds
received under a stewardship project if
doing so is a secondary objective of the
project.
Pursuant to section 604 of HFRA, the
land management goals of a stewardship
project may include any of the
following:
1. Road and trail maintenance or
obliteration to restore or maintain water
quality;
2. Soil productivity, habitat for
wildlife and fisheries, or other resource
values;
3. Setting of prescribed fires to
improve the composition, structure,
condition, and health of stands or to
improve wildlife habitat;
4. Removing vegetation or other
activities to promote healthy forest
stands, reduce fire hazards, or achieve
other land management objectives;
5. Watershed restoration and
maintenance;
6. Restoration and maintenance of
wildlife and fish; and
7. Control of noxious and exotic
weeds and reestablishing native plant
species.
The Forest Service has utilized
several types of contracts to implement
the stewardship end result contracting
authority. Generally, a contract that
resulted in the Forest Service’s receipt
of service work in an amount greater
than the value of the timber or forest
product removed by a contractor
utilized a contract that resembled a
procurement of service contract. A
PO 00000
Frm 00022
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
contract that resulted in the Forest
Service’s receipt of service work in an
amount less than the value of the timber
or forest product removed by a
contractor utilized a contract that
resembled a timber sale contract.
Recognizing the unique nature of the
use of timber and forest products as
consideration for the services received
under stewardship contracts and
agreements, section 604(d)(2) provides
that the Secretary may consider a
stewardship contract to be a contract for
the sale of property under terms
prescribed by the Secretary without
regard to any other provision of law.
Accordingly, section 223.301 of this rule
continues the use of the different types
of contracts based on the value of the
products removed and services
received. In order to ensure consistency
in the operation of these projects to the
extent that is practicable, sections
223.303 and 223.304 provide for the use
of existing regulatory provisions.
Section 223.303 sets forth the rules for
contracts that are principally the
acquisition of a service and rely upon
the Federal Acquisition Regulations
(FAR) set forth in Title 48 of the Code
of Federal Regulations. Section 223.304
sets forth the rules for contracts that are
principally sales of property contracts
and generally rely upon existing Forest
Service Timber Sale regulations set forth
in 36 CFR part 223, subparts A & B,
except as provided in section
223.304(a).
The regulations in 2 CFR 200, as
adopted and supplemented by the
USDA in 2 CFR 400, 416 and 422 set
forth the general rules that are
applicable to all grants and cooperative
agreements made by the Department of
Agriculture. Because the Forest
Service’s use of agreements entered into
under this part are not financial
assistance for the benefit of the recipient
but instead are entered into for the
benefit of the Forest Service, the
assistance regulations in 2 CFR 200, as
adopted and supplemented by the
USDA in 2 CFR 400, are not applicable
to such agreements.
While this final rule generally sets
forth the manner in which the Forest
Service has implemented stewardship
projects since 1999, this final rule also
sets forth with greater clarity the process
for selecting the appropriate mechanism
to implement a stewardship end result
project. Section 604(d) of HFRA requires
that a source for performance of a
stewardship agreement or contract be
selected on a best-value basis. A
stewardship agreement or contract may
also be entered into notwithstanding
subsections (d) and (g) of section 14 of
the National Forest Management Act of
