Federal Acquisition Regulation; Title 40 of United States Code Reference Corrections, 57453-57455 [05-19470]
Download as PDF
Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 189 / Friday, September 30, 2005 / Rules and Regulations
Response: The Councils clarify that
the Brooks Act was recently re-codified
by Congress and is now identified under
40 U.S.C. 1101 et seq. and the definition
of architect-engineer services is defined
under 40 U.S.C. 1102.
2. Support interim rule but it does not
go far enough. Recommend changes in
the definition.
Comment: One commenter requested
that in each place where the term
‘‘architect-engineer’’ is used in the rule,
it be replaced with the term
‘‘architectural and engineering
(including surveying and mapping)
services.’’ Another commenter
requested that all mapping and
surveying be subjected to qualification
based selection in conformance with the
Brooks Act.
Response: The Councils considered
these recommendations to be beyond
the scope of the rule. In addition, the
Councils have already addressed the
issue of the procurement of mapping
services in FAR case 2004–023,
published in the Federal Register at 70
FR 20329, April 19, 2005.
3. Address how GSA plans to prevent
violation when Agencies use the GSA
Multiple Award Schedule (MAS)
program.
Comment: Four commenters indicated
that they have concerns with the proper
use of the MAS program and asked that
GSA indicate how it plans to eliminate
the violations.
Response: GSA has indicated to the
Councils that it supports the use of the
qualifications based selection (QBS)
process for the procurement of A/E
services for public projects as mandated
by the Brooks Architect-Engineer Act of
1972 (Public Law 92–582, 40 U.S.C.
1102 et seq.), and it does not condone
any violation of the Brooks Act. To
ensure that the ordering agencies are
fully aware of the statutory requirement,
GSA has indicated that it has taken
various steps to state that the GSA MAS
Program may not be used to acquire
services that are subject to the
procedures of FAR Subpart 36.6. These
steps include adding information to the
online and classroom training, refining
the scope of MAS contracts, adding a
notice to GSA portal and MAS
brochures, adding new FAQ’s on the
website, and conducting a customer
compliance survey. GSA also plans on
conducting reviews of task orders for
scope compliance and A/E services will
be part of the reviews.
This is not a significant regulatory
action and, therefore, was not subject to
review under Section 6(b) of Executive
Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and
Review, dated September 30, 1993. This

rule is not a major rule under 5 U.S.C.
804.
B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Department of Defense, the
General Services Administration, and
the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration certify that this final
rule will not 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., because this
rule only clarifies an already existing
requirement that architectural and
engineering services be procured using
the procedures at FAR Subpart 36.6.
C. Paperwork Reduction Act
The Paperwork Reduction Act does
not apply because the changes to the
FAR do not impose information
collection requirements that require the
approval of the Office of Management
and Budget under 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Background
Congress recently codified Title 40 of
the United States Code. As a result, all

B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act does
not apply to this rule. This final rule

publication for public comments is not
required. However, the Councils will
consider comments from small entities

Federal Acquisition Regulation;
Implementation of the Anti-Lobbying
Statute
AGENCIES: Department of Defense (DoD),
General Services Administration (GSA),
and National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA).
ACTION: Final rule.
SUMMARY: The Department of Defense
(DoD), General Services Administration
(GSA), and National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (NASA) have
agreed to convert the interim rule
published in the Federal Register at 55
FR 3190, January 30, 1990, to a final
rule with several minor changes. The
interim rule amended the Federal
Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to
implement section 319 of the
Department of the Interior and Related
Agencies Appropriations Act, Public
Law 101–121, which added a new
section 1352 to title 31 U.S.C. entitled
‘‘Limitation on use of appropriated
funds to influence certain Federal
contracting and financial transactions.’’
Section 319 generally prohibits
recipients of Federal contracts, grants,
and loans from using appropriated
funds for lobbying the executive or
legislative branches of the Federal
Government in connection with a
specific contract, grant, or loan. Section
319 also requires that each person who
requests or receives a Federal contract,
grant, or cooperative agreement in
excess of $100,000, or a loan, or Federal
commitment to insure or guarantee a
loan, in excess of $150,000 must
disclose lobbying with other than
appropriated funds.
DATES: Effective Date: September 30,
2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Background
DoD, GSA, and NASA published an
interim rule in the Federal Register at
55 FR 3190, January 30, 1990. The
interim rule amended the Federal
Acquisition Regulation to implement
Section 319 of the Department of the
Interior and Related Agencies
Appropriations Act, Public Law 101–
121, which added a new section 1352 to
title 31 U.S.C. entitled ‘‘Limitation on
use of appropriated funds to influence
certain Federal contracting and financial
transactions.’’ Section 319 prohibits the
recipients of Federal contracts, grants,
loans and cooperative agreements from
using appropriated funds for lobbying
the executive or legislative branches of
the Federal Government in connection
with a specific contract, grant, loan or
cooperative agreement. It also requires
that each person who requests or
receives a Federal contract, grant, or
cooperative agreement, in excess of
$100,000, or a loan, or Federal
commitment to insure or guarantee a
loan, in excess of $150,000, must
disclose lobbying with other than
appropriated funds.
Section 1352 required the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) to issue
guidance for agency implementation of,
and compliance with, its requirements,
which OMB published on December 20,
1989 (54 FR 52306). After the interim
FAR rule was published in the Federal
Register at 55 FR 3190, January 30,
1990, OMB published a clarification
notice to their earlier guidance on June
15, 1990 (55 FR 24540).
After consideration of the public
comments that were received, DoD,
GSA, and NASA have agreed to convert
the interim rule to a final rule with
minor changes as discussed in Section
B.
This is not a significant regulatory
action and, therefore, was not subject to
review under Section 6(b) of Executive
Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and
Review, dated September 30, 1993. This
rule is not a major rule under 5 U.S.C.
804.
B. Public Comments
Ninety-four respondents submitted
comments. Twenty of the respondents
agreed or disagreed with the interim
rule without offering suggested changes.
The remaining respondents
recommended revisions to clarify
definitions and revise terminology;
clarify or add to the list of exceptions to

B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act does not apply to this rule. This
final rule does not constitute a significant FAR revision within the
meaning of FAR 1.501 and Public Law 98-577, and publication for public
comments is not required. However, the Councils will consider comments
from small entities concerning the affected FAR Parts 2, 4, 6, 7, 8,

cite 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq. (FAC 2005-06, FAR case 2005-010), in

C. Paperwork Reduction Act
The Paperwork Reduction Act does not apply because the changes to
the FAR do not impose information collection requirements that require
