List of Subjects in 48 CFR Parts 3001,
3002, and 3033
I. Background
DHS published an interim rule at 72
FR 1296 on January 11, 2007, to provide
notice of HSAR changes that reflect a
statutorily-mandated jurisdictional
change for the agency Board of Contract
Appeals (BCA). Specifically, BCA
jurisdiction for DHS transferred from
the U.S. Department of Transportation
Board of Contract Appeals to the newly
established Civilian Board of Contract
Appeals (CBCA). In the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal
Year 2006, Congress established the
CBCA and terminated every agency
BCA, except for those within the armed
services, the Tennessee Valley
Authority, and the U.S. Postal Service.
See Public Law 109–163, section 847.
Through January 5, 2007, the U.S.
Department of Transportation’s BCA
handled DHS contract appeals. As of
January 6, 2007, the CBCA handles DHS
contract appeals. This rule also provides
technical amendments to correct
organizational information reflected in
the HSAR.
B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act
(5 U.S.C. 601–612), the term ‘‘small
entities’’ comprises small businesses,
not-for-profit organizations that are
independently owned and operated and
are not dominant in their fields, and
governmental jurisdictions with
populations of less than 50,000. This
final rule is not expected to have a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities
within the meaning of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act.
Government procurement.
Authority and Issuance
Accordingly, for the reasons stated in
the preamble, the interim rule amending
48 CFR parts 3001, 3002, and 3033 that
was published at 72 FR 1296 on January
11, 2007, is adopted as a final rule
without change.

Specifically, BCA jurisdiction for DHS transferred from the U.S.

DHS has adopted the interim rule as a final rule without change.
III. Regulatory Analyses
A. Executive Order 12866 Assessment
DHS has determined that this final rule is neither a major rule
under 5 U.S.C. 804 nor a significant regulatory action under Executive
Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review. It therefore does not
require an assessment of potential costs and benefits under section
6(a)(3) of that Order, and the Office of Management and Budget has not
reviewed it.
B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612), the term
``small entities'' comprises small businesses, not-for-profit
organizations that are independently owned and operated and are not
dominant in their fields, and governmental jurisdictions with
populations of less than 50,000. This final rule is not expected to
