Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 173 / Wednesday, September 8, 2010 / Rules and Regulations Government procurement. A. Background DoD published an interim rule at 75 FR 10190 on March 5, 2010, to implement section 812 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (Pub. L. 111–84), enacted October 28, 2009. Section 812 was entitled ‘‘Revision of Defense Supplement Relating to Payment of Costs Prior to Definitization.’’ The interim rule amended the definition of ‘‘contract action’’ at DFARS 217.7401(a) to include task orders and delivery orders. This had the effect of making task orders and delivery orders subject to DoD’s policies and procedures for undefinitized contract actions. The period for public comment closed on May 5, 2010. DoD received no comments on the interim rule. Therefore, DoD is finalizing the interim rule without change. This rule was not subject to Office of Management and Budget review under Executive Order 12866, dated September 30, 1993. This is not a major rule under 5 U.S.C. 804. Ynette R. Shelkin, Editor, Defense Acquisition Regulations System. B. Regulatory Flexibility Act AGENCY: DoD certifies that this 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. No comments from small businesses were received during the public comment period, and the changes impose no additional requirements on small businesses that will impact substantially the way they do business with DoD. C. Paperwork Reduction Act The Paperwork Reduction Act does not apply because the rule does not impose any information collection requirements that require the approval of the Office of Management and Budget under 44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq. mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with RULES A.

National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2009 (Pub. L. 110-
417) and the Vessel Hull Design Protection Amendments of 2008 (Pub. L. 
110-434).
    DoD published the interim rule in the Federal Register on November 
23, 2009 (74 FR 61043). The comment period closed on January 22, 2010. 
No comments were received. Therefore, DoD is finalizing the interim

under Executive Order 12866, dated September 30, 1993. This is not a 
major rule under 5 U.S.C. 804.

B. Regulatory Flexibility Act

    DoD certifies that this 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 it does 
not create a significant economic impact on any entity. The rule 
creates an affirmative grant of appropriate rights in vessel design to 
the Government. No comments were received with regard to impact on 
small business.
