Division, (202) 874–6430; or Thomas

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: An agency
that has acquired property or service
from a business concern and has failed
to pay for the complete delivery of
property or service by the required
payment date shall pay the business
concern an interest penalty. 31 U.S.C.
3902(a). The Contract Disputes Act of
1978, Sec. 12, Public Law 95–563, 92
Stat. 2389, and the Prompt Payment Act,
31 U.S.C. 3902(a), provide for the
calculation of interest due on claims at
the rate established by the Secretary of
the Treasury.
The Secretary of the Treasury has the
authority to specify the rate by which
the interest shall be computed for
interest payments under section 12 of
the Contract Disputes Act of 1978 and
under the Prompt Payment Act. Under
the Prompt Payment Act, if an interest
penalty is owed to a business concern,
the penalty shall be paid regardless of
whether the business concern requested
payment of such penalty. 31 U.S.C.
3902(c)(1). Agencies must pay the
interest penalty calculated with the
interest rate, which is in effect at the
time the agency accrues the obligation
to pay a late payment interest penalty.
31 U.S.C. 3902(a). ‘‘The interest penalty
shall be paid for the period beginning
on the day after the required payment
date and ending on the date on which
payment is made.’’ 31 U.S.C. 3902(b).
Therefore, notice is given that the
Secretary of the Treasury has
determined that the rate of interest
applicable for the period beginning July
1, 2016, and ending on December 31,
2016, is 17⁄8 per centum per annum.
David A. Lebryk,
Fiscal Assistant Secretary.
