SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION
Small Business Size Standards: Public
Meetings on a Comprehensive Review
of Small Business Size Standards
U.S. Small Business
Administration.
ACTION: Notice of public meetings.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The U.S. Small Business
Administration (SBA) will hold two
public meetings to inform the public
about one of the Agency’s top
priorities—a comprehensive review of
all of its small business size standards.
Of fundamental importance in assisting
the nation’s small businesses is
appropriately defining which business
entities qualify as small businesses. SBA
is responsible to the public for ensuring
that size standards levels are sound and
rational. Therefore, SBA is undertaking
a 2-year across-the-board examination of
its size standards. This notice discusses
SBA’s reasons for and its approach to
the comprehensive review and provides
information about registering to attend a
public meeting.
DATES: The size standards meetings will
be held on June 3, 2008, at 10 a.m.
Eastern Time and 2 p.m. Eastern Time

I. Background
To carry out its mission of assisting
small businesses, SBA must identify
which businesses are small and,
therefore, eligible for Federal assistance
programs intended for small businesses.
Congress granted SBA broad discretion
in establishing detailed small business
definitions, or size standards (15 U.S.C.
632(a)(2)). The Small Business Act
generally defines a small business as
one that is independently owned and
operated, not dominant in its field of
operation, and meets a numerical size
standard established by the SBA
Administrator. SBA’s size standards are
promulgated in 13 CFR Part 121, ‘‘Small
Business Size Regulations,’’ and may be
found at https://www.sba.gov/size.
Over the years, SBA has reviewed size
standards on an ad hoc basis. That is,
SBA has reviewed specific industries
that it believed warranted modification
either in response to requests from the
public or a Federal agency or through its
own independent analysis. In addition,
SBA has periodically increased the
monetary-based size standards to keep
them in line with inflation between
individual adjustments. The last
increase for inflation was on December
6, 2005 (70 FR 72577).
SBA has undertaken a few broad
reviews of size standards in the past.
With the inception of the Agency in
1953, SBA examined the initial
configuration of size standards and
established the basic framework for
today’s size standards. The last
comprehensive review of size standards
was in the early 1980s. That review
resulted in several important changes.
The two most important of those were
(1) replacing two sets of size standards,
one for procurement programs and one
for financial programs, with a single set
for all programs and (2) formalizing the
methodology for evaluating size
standards. In 2004, SBA proposed to
restructure and simplify size standards
