Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 165 / Wednesday, August 26, 2015 / Rules and Regulations
amending the Defense Federal
Acquisition Regulation Supplement
(DFARS) to implement a section of the
Military Construction and Veterans
Affairs and Related Agencies
Appropriations Act, 2015, to require
offerors bidding on DoD military
construction contracts to provide
opportunity for competition to
American steel producers, fabricators,
and manufacturers; and restrict use of
military construction funds in certain
foreign countries, including countries
that border the Arabian Gulf.
DATES: Effective August 26, 2015.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms.
Julie Hammond, telephone 571–372–
6174.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
DoD published an interim rule in the
Federal Register at 80 FR 15909 on
March 26, 2015, to implement sections
108, 111, and 112 of the Military
Construction and Veterans Affairs and
Related Agencies Appropriations Act,
2015 (division I of the Consolidated and
Further Continuing Resolution
Appropriations Act, 2015, Pub. L. 113–
235), enacted December 16, 2014.
II. Discussion and Analysis
There were no public comments
submitted in response to the interim
rule. The interim rule has been
converted to a final rule, without
change.
III. Executive Orders 12866 and 13563
rmajette on DSK7SPTVN1PROD with RULES
Executive Orders (E.O.s) 12866 and
13563 direct agencies to assess all costs
and benefits of available regulatory
alternatives and, if regulation is
necessary, to select regulatory
approaches that maximize net benefits
(including potential economic,
environmental, public health and safety
effects, distributive impacts, and
equity). E.O. 13563 emphasizes the
importance of quantifying both costs
and benefits, of reducing costs, of
harmonizing rules, and of promoting
flexibility. This is not a significant
regulatory action and, therefore, was not
subject to review under section 6(b) of
E.O. 12866, Regulatory Planning and
Review, dated September 30, 1993. This
rule is not a major rule under 5 U.S.C.
804.
IV. Regulatory Flexibility Act
A final regulatory flexibility analysis
has been prepared consistent with the
Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601,
et seq., and is summarized as follows:
This rule is necessary to require
offerors bidding on DoD military

construction contracts to provide
opportunity for competition to
American steel producers, fabricators,
and manufacturers, and implement the
preference for award only to U.S. firms
when awarding certain military
construction and architect-engineer
contracts to be performed in countries
bordering the Arabian Gulf.
The objective of this rule is to
implement sections 108, 111, and 112 of
the Military Construction and Veterans
Affairs, and Related Agencies
Appropriations Act, 2015 (division I of
Pub. L. 113–235). This rule extends the
applicability of the requirement to
provide opportunity for competition to
American steel producers, fabricators,
and manufacturers, and revises the
preference for award to U.S. firms of
military construction contracts that have
an estimated value greater than
$1,000,000 and the restriction requiring
award only to U.S. firms for architectengineer contracts that have an
estimated value greater than $500,000,
to make it applicable to contracts to be
performed in a country bordering the
Arabian Gulf, rather than a country
bordering the Arabian Sea (as required
in earlier statutes).
No comments were received from the
public relative to the publication of the
initial regulatory flexibility analysis in
the interim rule.
Section 108 will benefit any small
business entities involved in producing,
fabricating, or manufacturing steel
products to be used in military
construction. Sections 111 and 112 will
only apply to a very limited number of
small entities—those entities that
submit offers in response to solicitations
for military construction contracts that
have an estimated value greater than
$1,000,000 and architect-engineer
contracts that have an estimated value
greater than $500,000, when the
contracts are to be performed in
countries bordering the Arabian Gulf.
The rule does not impose any
additional reporting, recordkeeping, and
other compliance requirements.
No alternatives were identified that
will accomplish the objectives of the
statutes and the rule.
V. Paperwork Reduction Act
The rule does not contain any
information collection requirements that
require the approval of the Office of
Management and Budget under the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
chapter 35).

SUMMARY:
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
DoD published a proposed rule in the
Federal Register at 80 FR 4850 on
January 29, 2015, to update the DFARS
clause at 252.225–7040, Contractor

States. No public comments were
submitted in response to the proposed
rule.
II. Discussion and Analysis
No changes are made to the substance
of the final rule. Subsequent to the
publication of the proposed rule,
however, DFARS subpart 225.74 was
redesignated as DFARS 225.3 (see 80 FR

IV. Regulatory Flexibility Act
A final regulatory flexibility analysis
has been prepared consistent with the
Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601,
et seq., and is summarized as follows:
The rule is needed make the following
updates to the clause at the Defense
Federal Acquisition Regulation
Supplement (DFARS) 252.225–7040,
Contractor Personnel Supporting U.S.
Armed Forces Deployed Outside the
United States—
• Remove ‘‘humanitarian assistance
operations’’ from the list of applicable
operations covered by the clause
because it is a subset of ‘‘peace
operations’’;
• Clarify that both contractors
authorized to accompany the Force
(CAAF) and non-CAAF personnel must
be made aware of information related to
sexual assault offenses;
• Clarify that the section on reporting
alleged crimes does not create any rights
or privileges that are not authorized by
law or DoD policy;
• Update the reference for special
area, country, and theater clearance
requirements for deploying personnel;
• Update the form used to show
vaccinations are current;
• Update the SPOT Web address; and,
• Add the title of DoD Instruction
3020.41.
No comments were received from the
public in response to the initial
regulatory flexibility analysis.
DoD does not expect this proposed
rule to have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small
entities within the meaning of the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
12:34 Aug 25, 2015
Jkt 235001
Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601,
et seq. The rule updates DFARS clause
252.225–7040, which is required for use
in contracts that authorize contractor
personnel to support U.S. Armed Forces
deployed outside the United States in:
(1) Contingency operations; (2) peace
operations consistent with Joint
Publication 3–07.3; or (3) other military
operations or military exercises, when
designated by the combatant
commander or as directed by the
Secretary of Defense.
According to the Federal Procurement
Data System (FPDS), DoD awarded 506
contracts in fiscal year 2013 requiring
performance overseas in support of
contingency, humanitarian or peace
operations. Of the 506 contracts, only 76
contracts (15%) were awarded to small
businesses. At this time, there is no way
of estimating how many contracts may
be awarded requiring performance
outside the United States in support of
other military operations or exercises,
when designated by the Combatant
Commander. However, the number of
small businesses awarded such
contracts is expected to be minimal.
The rule does not impose any
additional reporting, recordkeeping, and
other compliance requirements. DoD
did not identify any alternatives that
could meet the objectives of the rule.
V. Paperwork Reduction Act
The rule contains information
collection requirements that require the
approval by the Office of Management
and Budget under the Paperwork
Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. chapter 35);
however, these changes to the DFARS
do not impose additional information
collection requirements to the
paperwork burden previously approved
under OMB Control Number 0704–0460,
entitled Synchronized Predeployment
and Operational Tracker (SPOT)
System.

ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
This final rule announces the
approval of the Omnibus Amendment to
the Fishery Management Plans of the
Northeastern United States and
implements the amendment’s approved
management measures to simplify
vessel baselines. The Baseline
Amendment eliminates the one-time
limit on vessel upgrades and removes
gross and net tonnages from the vessel
baseline specifications that NMFS
considers when determining a vessel’s
baseline for replacement purposes.
Implementing these measures reduces
the administrative burden to permit
holders and NMFS and has little effect
on fleet capacity.
This rule also removes the
requirement for vessels to send in
negative fishing reports (i.e., ‘‘did not
fish’’ reports) during months or weeks
when vessels were inactive. NMFS no
longer needs these reports due to
improved trip-level matching.
Therefore, NMFS removes this
requirement to simplify the regulations
and reduce reporting burdens for the
industry.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
ADDRESSES:
Background
The New England and Mid-Atlantic
Fishery Management Councils
submitted the Baseline Amendment to
NMFS for approval at their November
18, 2014, and October 8, 2014, meetings,
respectively. We prepared the
amendment on behalf of the Councils.
We reviewed and finalized the
amendment document to ensure
consistency with the Magnuson-Stevens
Fishery Conservation and Management
Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act), the fishery
management plans that have vessel
baseline requirements, and other
applicable laws. NMFS has approved
the Baseline Amendment in its entirety.
Baseline regulations currently require
that a replacement vessel or an upgrade
made to an existing vessel with a
limited access permit be within 10
percent of the size (i.e., length, gross
tonnage, and net tonnage) and 20
percent of the horsepower of the
permit’s baseline vessel. In addition,
regulations limit permit holders to a
one-time upgrade of the vessel size and
horsepower specifications.
This final rule eliminates gross and
net tonnage from the baseline
specifications that NMFS considers
when determining a vessel’s baseline for
replacement purposes. Both the
Councils and NMFS consider tonnages
the most variable of vessel baseline
specifications and; therefore, they have
little effect on limiting vessel capacity
when compared to length and
horsepower restrictions. Eliminating
tonnages simplifies the vessel baseline
verification and replacement process. In
addition, it could reduce the cost
burden on the industry if vessel owners
only need horsepower verification
because eliminating the tonnage

Frm 00032
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
baselines will eliminate the need for
owners to get a marine survey of their
vessel prior to any permit replacement
or upgrade transactions.
This final rule removes the one-time
limit on vessel upgrades. Eliminating
the one-time upgrade limit will provide
more flexibility for vessel owners in the
selection of replacement vessels and
upgrades to existing vessels. Eliminating
the one-time limit will also simplify the
baseline verification and vessel
replacement process for vessel owners
and NMFS by eliminating the need to
research and document whether a vessel
owner used the one-time upgrade
during the vessel’s entire limited access
history.
The Baseline Amendment
implemented by this final rule does not
modify any other baseline specifications
or measures.
This final rule also removes the
requirement for vessels to send in
negative fishing reports (i.e., ‘‘did not
fish’’ reports) during months or weeks
when vessels are inactive. This change
in reporting requirements was not part
of the Baseline Amendment. We are
removing this requirement under the
Secretary’s authority at section 305(d) of
the Magnuson-Stevens Act to
promulgate regulations necessary to
carry out Councils’ amendments
consistently with the Act. Eliminating
this requirement simplifies the
regulations and reduces reporting
burdens for the industry. In the past,
these negative fishing reports were
necessary to aid in data matching and
quota monitoring. In recent years, we
updated our monitoring systems at the
Greater Atlantic Regional Fisheries
Office and these negative fishing reports
are no longer necessary. Vessels that
fish will still be required to report all
trips on a monthly or weekly basis,
depending on permits that they retain.
Comments and Responses
NMFS received two comment letters
in response to the proposed rule from
the Atlantic Offshore Lobstermen’s
Association and Lund’s Fisheries
Incorporated. We provide responses
below to the issues these commenters
raised. NMFS may only approve,
disapprove, or partially approve
measures in the Baseline Amendment,
and cannot substantively amend, add, or
delete measures beyond what is
necessary under section 305(d) of the
Magnuson-Stevens Act to discharge its
responsibility to carry out such
measures.
Comment 1: Atlantic Offshore
Lobstermen’s Association was
supportive of this action, but it was
concerned that the changes in the
Baseline Amendment could encourage

SUMMARY: DoD is issuing a final rule amending the Defense Federal
Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to provide updates and
clarifications regarding requirements for contractor personnel
supporting U.S. Armed Forces deployed outside the United States.
DATES: Effective August 26, 2015.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Julie Hammond, Telephone 571-372-
6174.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
DoD published a proposed rule in the Federal Register at 80 FR 4850
on January 29, 2015, to update the DFARS clause at 252.225-7040,
Contractor Personnel Supporting U.S. Armed Forces Deployed Outside the
United States. No public comments were submitted in response to the
proposed rule.
II. Discussion and Analysis
No changes are made to the substance of the final rule. Subsequent
to the publication of the proposed rule, however, DFARS subpart 225.74
was redesignated as DFARS 225.3 (see 80 FR
[[Page 51753]]
36900 published on June 26, 2015) to align with the coverage in the
Federal Acquisition Regulation subpart 25.3. This final rule is updated
accordingly to reflect these baseline changes.
III. Executive Orders 12866 and 13563
Executive Orders (E.O.s) 12866 and 13563 direct agencies to assess
all costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if
regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize
net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public
health and safety effects, distributive impacts, and equity). E.O.
13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and benefits,
of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting flexibility.
This is not a significant regulatory action and, therefore, was not
subject to review under section 6(b) of E.O. 12866, Regulatory Planning
and Review, dated September 30, 1993. This rule is not a major rule
under 5 U.S.C. 804.
IV. Regulatory Flexibility Act
A final regulatory flexibility analysis has been prepared
consistent with the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq.,
and is summarized as follows:
The rule is needed make the following updates to the clause at the
Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) 252.225-7040,
Contractor Personnel Supporting U.S. Armed Forces Deployed Outside the
United States--
Remove ``humanitarian assistance operations'' from the
list of applicable operations covered by the clause because it is a
subset of ``peace operations'';
Clarify that both contractors authorized to accompany the
Force (CAAF) and non-CAAF personnel must be made aware of information
related to sexual assault offenses;
Clarify that the section on reporting alleged crimes does
not create any rights or privileges that are not authorized by law or
DoD policy;
Update the reference for special area, country, and
theater clearance requirements for deploying personnel;
Update the form used to show vaccinations are current;
Update the SPOT Web address; and,
Add the title of DoD Instruction 3020.41.
No comments were received from the public in response to the
initial regulatory flexibility analysis.
DoD does not expect this proposed 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. The
rule updates DFARS clause 252.225-7040, which is required for use in
contracts that authorize contractor personnel to support U.S. Armed
Forces deployed outside the United States in: (1) Contingency
operations; (2) peace operations consistent with Joint Publication 3-
07.3; or (3) other military operations or military exercises, when
designated by the combatant commander or as directed by the Secretary
of Defense.
According to the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS), DoD
awarded 506 contracts in fiscal year 2013 requiring performance
overseas in support of contingency, humanitarian or peace operations.
Of the 506 contracts, only 76 contracts (15%) were awarded to small
businesses. At this time, there is no way of estimating how many
contracts may be awarded requiring performance outside the United
States in support of other military operations or exercises, when
designated by the Combatant Commander. However, the number of small
businesses awarded such contracts is expected to be minimal.
The rule does not impose any additional reporting, recordkeeping,
and other compliance requirements. DoD did not identify any
alternatives that could meet the objectives of the rule.
V. Paperwork Reduction Act
The rule contains information collection requirements that require
the approval by the Office of Management and Budget under the Paperwork
Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. chapter 35); however, these changes to the
DFARS do not impose additional information collection requirements to
the paperwork burden previously approved under OMB Control Number 0704-
