Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 34 / Tuesday, February 22, 2005 / Rules and Regulations Executive Order 12866, dated September 30, 1993. PART 205—PUBLICIZING CONTRACT ACTIONS B. Regulatory Flexibility Act I DoD does not expect this rule to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities within the meaning of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq. While the rule will reduce administrative burdens for contractors, the economic impact is not expected to be substantial. Therefore, DoD has not performed an initial regulatory flexibility analysis. DoD invites comments from small businesses and other interested parties. DoD also will consider comments from small entities concerning the affected DFARS subpart in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 610. Such comments should be submitted separately and should cite DFARS Case 2004–D025. C. Paperwork Reduction Act The information collection requirements of the clause at DFARS 252.205–7000, Provision of Information to Cooperative Agreement Holders, have been approved by the Office of Management and Budget, under Control Number 0704–0286, for use through September 30, 2007. D. Determination To Issue an Interim Rule A determination has been made under the authority of the Secretary of Defense that urgent and compelling reasons exist to publish an interim rule prior to affording the public an opportunity to comment. This interim rule implements Section 816 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2005 (Public Law 108–375). Section 816 amends 10 U.S.C. 2416(d) to increase, from $500,000 to $1,000,000, the threshold at which a DoD contract must include a requirement for the contractor to provide to cooperative agreement holders, upon their request, a list of the contractor’s employees who are responsible for entering into subcontracts. Section 816 became effective upon enactment on October 28, 2004. Comments received in response to this interim rule will be considered in the formation of the final rule.

Section 205.470 is amended in the first sentence by removing ‘‘$500,000’’ and adding in its place ‘‘$1,000,000’’.

Background DFARS Transformation is a major DoD initiative to dramatically change the purpose and content of the DFARS. The objective is to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the acquisition process, while allowing the acquisition workforce the flexibility to innovate. The transformed DFARS will contain only requirements of law, DoDwide policies, delegations of FAR authorities, deviations from FAR requirements, and policies/procedures that have a significant effect beyond the internal operating procedures of DoD or a significant cost or administrative impact on contractors or offerors. Additional information on the DFARS Transformation initiative is available at https://www.acq.osd.mil/dpap/dfars/ transf.htm. This final rule is a result of the DFARS Transformation initiative.
