SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Summary of Information Collection
President Barack Obama signed
Executive Order 13607 on April 27,
2012 to address the problem of
aggressive and deceptive targeting of
Service members, veterans, and their
families by some educational
institutions. Section 4 of the Executive
Order specifically calls for the creation
of a robust, centralized complaint
process for students receiving Federal
military and veterans’ educational
benefits.
DoD, along with the participating
Federal agencies identified in the
Executive Order have determined that
this complaint process, in addition to
taking in complaints about abusive or
deceptive practices by schools, must
create an opportunity for schools to
resolve those complaints, and must
ensure that complaint data is accessible
both to the relevant components at the
Departments of Defense, Veterans
Affairs, and Education that review
schools for compliance and program

eligibility, as well as the relevant law
enforcement agencies that will
prosecute any illegal practices. Beyond
creation of this complaint process, the
agencies seek to prevent abusive,
deceptive, and fraudulent practices
through the following mechanisms:
establishment of risk-based program
reviews; limits on access to military
installations by educational institutions;
and the use of intellectual property and
other legal protections to ensure Web
sites and programs are not deceptively
suggesting military affiliation or
endorsement.
A centralized complaint system will
provide a resource for students
receiving military and veteran
educational benefits to effectively
submit complaints against institutions
they feel have acted deceptively or
fraudulently. The first step is to make it
easier for prospective and current
military students to raise these
concerns.

non-discriminatory treatment for launch
services that ULA may provide, and that
(2) Lockheed Martin and Boeing, as
space vehicle manufacturers, consider
all qualified launch service providers on
a non-discriminatory basis. The Consent
Order also requires firewalls to prevent
information from a space vehicle
provider being shared by ULA with its
Boeing or Lockheed Martin parent
company. Similarly, Boeing and
Lockheed Martin must have firewalls to
ensure that other launch service
information is not shared with ULA.
The Consent Order also requires that the
Department of Defense appoint a
Compliance Officer to oversee
compliance with the Consent Order by
all three Respondents. The current
Compliance Officer is the Deputy Under
Secretary of the Air Force (Space), Mr.
Richard McKinney. The FTC Consent
Order states that the Compliance Officer
‘‘shall oversee compliance by the
Respondents with the terms of this
Order, and shall have the power and
authority to oversee such compliance.’’
Industry Day Interest: The purpose of
the proposed ULA Industry Day is to
inform industry of the Consent Order
and its requirements, the ULA, Boeing,
and Lockheed Martin compliance with
the Consent Order, and the role of the
Compliance Officer to oversee the
Respondents’ compliance with the
Consent Order. During the proposed
Industry Day, each of the Respondents
plans to present information on its
specific compliance with the Consent
Order requirements. Separate discussion
sessions will be available to attendees,
at their discretion and request, to meet
with the Compliance Officer and his
Government team in private to address
any questions or comments relating to
the Consent Order.
DATES: If sufficient interest exists, the
ULA Industry Day will be held the first
quarter of 2013.
ADDRESSES: The meeting location is
TBD.

aerospace industry who may do
business with the Respondents and may
be affected by the Consent Order, and
the general public, are welcome to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: After the
FTC initiated an investigation of the
proposed formation of ULA by Boeing
and Lockheed Martin, the FTC’s Bureau
of Competition issued a draft Complaint
that it intended to present to the FTC for
its consideration. The Complaint would
have charged the Respondents with
violations of Section 7 of the Clayton
Act, as amended, 15 United States Code
(U.S.C.) Section 18, and Section 5 of the
Federal Trade Commission Act, as
amended, 15 U.S.C. Section 45. The
Respondents and the FTC executed an
agreement containing an admission by
the Respondents of the jurisdictional
facts set forth in the draft complaint,
and including a statement that the
Respondents’ signing of the Consent
Agreement (1) was for settlement
purposes only, (2) did not constitute an
admission by the Respondents that (a)
the law had been violated as alleged in
the Complaint, or (b) the facts alleged in
the Complaint, other than jurisdictional
facts, were true. The Aerospace
Corporation provides, under contract,
much of the technical and cost oversight
support for the Compliance Officer as
specified in the Consent Order.
