The closing date for comments on the

EPA maintains the NPL as the list of
sites that appear to present a significant
risk to public health, welfare, or the
environment. Deletion from the NPL
does not preclude further remedial
action. Whenever there is a significant
release from a site deleted from the NPL,
the deleted site may be restored to the
NPL without application of the hazard
ranking system. Deletion of a site from
the NPL does not affect responsible
party liability in the unlikely event that
future conditions warrant further
actions.

Final rule.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Department of Veterans
Affairs (VA) is amending and updating
its VA Acquisition Regulation (VAAR)
in phased increments to revise or
remove any policy superseded by
changes in the Federal Acquisition
Regulation (FAR), to remove procedural
guidance internal to VA into the VA
Acquisition Manual (VAAM), and to
incorporate any new agency specific
regulations or policies. These changes
seek to streamline and align the VAAR
with the FAR and remove outdated and
duplicative requirements and reduce
burden on contractors. The VAAM
incorporates portions of the removed
VAAR as well as other internal agency
acquisition policy. VA will rewrite
certain parts of the VAAR and VAAM,
and as VAAR parts are rewritten, we
will publish them in the Federal
Register. In particular, this rulemaking
revises VAAR concerning Taxes;
Quality Assurance; Transportation;
Solicitation Provisions and Contract
Clauses; and Special Procurement
Controls.
SUMMARY:
This rule is effective on October
24, 2018.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr.
Rafael N. Taylor, Senior Procurement
Analyst, Procurement Policy and
Warrant Management Services, 003A2A,

number.)
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April
25, 2018, VA published a proposed rule
in the Federal Register (83 FR 17979)
which announced VA’s intent to amend
regulations for VAAR Case RIN 2900–
AQ04 (parts 829, 846, and 847). In
particular, this final rule revises the 829
authorities to include the applicable
U.S. code citations where the Secretary
of the Treasury has exempted spirits
and alcohol purchases by the Federal
government, pursuant to 26 U.S.C.
5214(a)(2), 26 U.S.C. 5271, and 26
U.S.C. 7510; removes section 829.202–
70, Tax exemptions for alcohol
products, updates and moves it to the

VAAM; adds a new section to provide
the legislative authorities for
withdrawal of distilled spirits from
bonded premises free of tax or without
payment of tax by, and for the use of,
the VA; removes section 829.302,
Application of State and local taxes to
the Government, to the VAAM; removes
829.302–70, Purchases made from
patients’ funds, and the clause it
prescribes, 852.229–70, Sales or Use
Taxes.
In part 846, Quality Assurance, this
rule adds a definition of ‘‘rejected
goods’’ as used in a revised clause;
revises subpart 846.3 to prescribe
clauses 852.236–74, Inspection of
Construction, 852.246–71, Rejected
Goods, 852.246–72, Frozen Processed
Foods, 852.246–73, Noncompliance
with Packaging, Packing, and/or
Marking Requirements, and 852.246–76,
Purchase of Shellfish; it reduces subpart
846.4 to three sections, 846.408–70,
Inspection of subsistence, 846.470, Use
of commercial organizations for
inspections and grading services, and
846.471, Food service equipment; it
removes a warranty clause because there
are sufficient FAR warranty clauses that
could be used; removes policy requiring
USDA inspections for subsistence since
the Department of Agriculture no longer
requires this type of inspection; removes
coverage requiring inspection of repairs
for properties under the Loan Guaranty
Program and Direct Loan Programs, as
such sections are unnecessary given that
a private contractor performs such
inspection and repair functions on VA’s
behalf; and provides coverage to state
VA’s policy regarding guarantee period
services.
This rule adds guidance in part 847 to
contracting officers for VA
transportation contracts and
transportation-related services and
subsequent payments on those
contracts; provides guidance on
contractual requirements for insurance
provisions and contractor personnel
performing on VA transportation
contracts; provides consignment
instructions; and adds a clause
providing packing instructions to ensure
acceptance by common carriers and safe
delivery at destination.
This rule also removes all remaining
sections of part 870 as the guidance
included therein was either moved to
other parts, out of date, or duplicative
of the FAR.
VA provided a 60-day comment
period for the public to respond to the
proposed rule. The comment period for
the proposed rule ended on June 25,
2018 and VA received no comments.
This document adopts as a final rule the
proposed rule published in the Federal
