Identification (RFID) tag data. DoD
receiving personnel use the advance
shipment notice to associate the unique
identification encoded on the RFID tag
with the corresponding shipment. Use
of the RFID technology permits DoD an
automated and sophisticated end-to-end
supply chain that has increased
visibility of assets and permits delivery
of supplies to the warfighter more
quickly.
Affected Public: Businesses or other
for-profit and not-for profit institutions.

contractor is responsible for ensuring
that each tag contains a globally unique
identifier. The contractor shall
electronically submit advance shipment
notices with the RFID tag identification
in advance of the shipment in
accordance with the procedures at
https://wawf.eb.mil/.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 238001
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 marketing
practices through the following
mechanisms: establishment of riskbased 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. The
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 and spouse-students to
raise these concerns.
