eligible U.S. households could obtain a
maximum of two coupons of $40 each
to apply toward the purchase of CECBs.
The agency is taking this action because
these regulations are obsolete after
November 8, 2010. The Act permitted
consumers to request coupons from
NTIA through July 31, 2009. The final
coupons were issued on August 12,
2009, and the last issued coupon
expired on November 9, 2009. NTIA has
fulfilled its statutory mandate to
administer the Coupon Program, and is
removing the regulations as they are
unnecessary. If these regulations are not
removed, it may suggest that the
program is still active and may cause
confusion regarding the status of the
program.
Executive Order 12866
This rule has been determined to be
not significant under Executive Order
12866.
This rule does not contain policies
with federalism implications as that
term is defined in EO 13132.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
As prior notice and an opportunity for
public comment are not required under
5 U.S.C. 553 or any other law, the
analytical requirements of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act are
inapplicable. Thus, no regulatory
flexibility analysis is required and none
has been prepared.
Paperwork Reduction Act
This action contains no information
collection requirements. Therefore,
clearance by the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 is not required.
The OMB collection numbers 0660–
0026 and 0660–0027 associated with the
regulations are discontinued effective
November 9, 2010.

published as a final rule in the Federal
Register on November 12, 2008, with an

law involving fraud, conflict of interest,
bribery, or gratuity violations found in
title 18 U.S.C. or a violation of the civil
False Claims Act. This final rule
provides the address for the DoD Office
of the Inspector General.

ACTION:
Final Rule.
DoD is issuing a final rule
amending the Defense Federal
Acquisition Regulation Supplement
(DFARS) to require contractors to apply
Government-assigned serial numbers in
human-readable format on major end
items when required by law, regulation,
or military operational necessity.

2010.
SUMMARY:
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Ms.
Mary Overstreet, 703–602–0311.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Background
Contractors are required to apply
Government-assigned serial numbers,
such as tail numbers/hull numbers and
equipment registration numbers, in
human-readable format on major end
items when required by law, regulation,
or military operational necessity. This
final rule establishes a standard DoD
method of specifying Governmentassigned serial numbers contractually
and requires the contractor to associate
these serial numbers with the Unique
Item Identifier (UII) assigned by the
contractor and to register them in the
DoD Item Unique Identification (IUID)
Registry along with the UII. The rule
also requires agreement between the
Government and contractor prior to use
of the serial numbers in constructing the
end item UII.
DoD published a proposed rule in the
Federal Register on April 30, 2010 (75
FR 22727). The comment period closed
on June 29, 2010, and no comments
were received.
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.
B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
DoD does not expect this final rule to
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. DoD
has prepared a final regulatory
flexibility analysis consistent with 5
U.S.C. 604. A copy of the analysis may
be obtained from the point of contact
specified herein. The analysis is
summarized as follows:
DoD requires that the use of
Government-assigned serial numbers be
limited to satisfy requirements of law or
regulation or to facilitate the
identification of major end items
consistent with military operational
requirements, e.g., aircraft tail numbers
or ship hull numbers in military
