Collection of Information Requirement OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT 48 CFR Parts 1631, 1644 and 1652 RIN 3206–AJ20 Federal Employees Health Benefits Acquisition Regulation: Technical Amendments Office of Personnel Management. ACTION: Final rule. AGENCY: SUMMARY: The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is issuing this final regulation to make minor technical amendments to the Federal Employees Health Benefits Acquisition Regulation (FEHBAR). Effective February 21, 2006. This document is available for viewing at https:// www.regulations.gov and at the U.S. Office of Personnel Management, 1900 E Street, NW., Washington, DC 20415. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Michael Kaszynski, Policy Analyst, at 202–606–0004 or e-mail mwkaszyn@opm.gov. DATES: ADDRESSES: The primary purpose of this rulemaking is to make technical amendments to the large provider regulation which was published on June 1, 2005. We are changing certain contract provision effective dates. We have eliminated the reference to the Truth in Negotiations Act in FEHBAR 1652.204–74. We have revised FEHBAR 1644.170 to show that carriers must follow commercially reasonable procurement procedures that comply, when required, with the Federal Acquisition Regulations’ policies and procedures relating to competition and contract pricing for the acquisition of both commercial and noncommercial items. The intent of the clause is to require carriers to abide by FAR competition and contract pricing policies when they subcontract so that the carrier will be able to provide the Contracting officer with information sufficient to enable the Contracting officer to effectively carry out his or her duties under the FAR and the FEHBAR when he or she evaluates subcontracts rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with RULES SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: VerDate Aug<31>2005 18:05 Jan 18, 2006 Jkt 208001 This rulemaking makes minor technical amendments to the Federal Employees Health Benefits Acquisition Regulations. The rule does not impose information collection and recordkeeping requirements that meet the definition of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995’s term ‘‘collection of information’’ which means obtaining, causing to be obtained, soliciting, or requiring the disclosure to third parties or the public, of facts or opinions by or for an agency, regardless of form or format, calling for either answers to identical questions posed to, or identical reporting or recordkeeping requirements imposed on ten or more persons, other than agencies, instrumentalities, or employees of the United States; or answers to questions posed to agencies, instrumentalities, or employees of the United States which are to be used for general statistical purposes. Consequently, it need not be reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget under the authority of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Regulatory Flexibility Act The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) requires agencies to analyze options for regulatory relief of small businesses. For purposes of the RFA, small entities include small businesses, nonprofit organizations, and government agencies with revenues of $11.5 million or less in any one year. This rulemaking affects FEHB Program carriers and their contractual arrangements which exceed the dollar threshold. Therefore, I certify that this regulation will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Regulatory Impact Analysis We have examined the impact of this final rule as required by Executive Order 12866 (September 1993, Regulatory Planning and Review), the RFA (September 16, 1980, Pub. L. 96– 354), section 1102(b) of the Social Security Act, the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995, (Pub. L. 104–4), and Executive Order 13132. Executive Order 12866 (as amended by Executive Order 13258, which merely assigns responsibility of duties) directs agencies to assess all costs and benefits of PO 00000 Frm 00025 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 3015 available regulatory alternatives and, if regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public health and safety effects, distributive impacts, and equity). A regulatory impact analysis (RIA) must be prepared for major rules with economically significant effects ($100 million or more in any one year). This rule is not considered a major rule, as defined in title 5, United States Code, Section 804(2), because we estimate its impact will only affect FEHB carriers and some of their contractual arrangements. Any resulting economic impact would not be expected to exceed the dollar threshold. Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Review This rule has been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget in accordance with Executive Order 12866.

Linda M. Springer, Director. Accordingly, OPM is amending chapter 16 of title 48, CFR, as follows: I CHAPTER 16—OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT FEDERAL EMPLOYEES HEALTH BENEFITS ACQUISITION REGULATION 1. The authority citation for 48 CFR parts 1631, 1644 and 1652 continues to read as follows: I Authority: 5 U.S.C. 8913; 40 U.S.C. 486(c); 48 CFR 1.301. Subchapter E—General Contracting Requirements PART 1631—CONTRACT COST PRINCIPLES AND PROCEDURES Subpart 1631.2—Contracts With Commercial Organizations 2. A new 1631.205–82 is added to subpart 1631.2 to read as follows: I 1631.205–82 Audits. Carriers should ensure that the public accounting firms with which they contract for audits of FEHB accounts are registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB).
