amending the General Services
Administration Acquisition Regulation
(GSAR) to implement The Local
Preparedness Acquisition Act of 2008.
The Act authorizes the Administrator of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
I. Background
As part of GSA’s regulatory reform
efforts, GSA has been performing a
comprehensive review of the regulatory
requirements in the GSAR. As a part of
these efforts, GSA discovered that a
Federal Register notification had not
been published to finalize this interim
rule. As a result, GSA included as part
of the Fall edition of the Unified Agenda
of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory
Actions in the Federal Register at 83 FR
58086 on November 16, 2018 its
intention to publish a final rule
notification in the Federal Register.
The purpose of this rule is the
straightforward implementation of the
statutory authority provided by Public
Law 110–248, The Local Preparedness
Acquisition Act to open Schedule 84 or
any amended or subsequent version of
that Federal supply classification group
E:\FR\FM\11APR1.SGM
11APR1
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 70 / Thursday, April 11, 2019 / Rules and Regulations
to cooperative purchasing. GSA
exercised this authority effective on the
date of publication of the interim rule.
GSA published the interim rule in the
Federal Register at 73 FR 54334, on
September 19, 2008.
The interim rule was a straight
implementation of the statute. No public
comments were submitted in response
to the interim rule. The program has
been operating under the interim rule
since 2008 without concern and with no
statutory changes. Therefore, there are
no changes from the interim rule made
in the final rule. This action represents
administrative clean-up for purposes of
publishing a notification in the Federal
Register of the finalization of this rule.
II. Discussion and Analysis
No public comments were submitted
in response to the interim rule.
Therefore, there are no changes from the
interim rule made in the final rule.
III. Executive Order 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
Executive Order 12866, Regulatory
Planning and Review, dated September
30, 1993. This rule is not a major rule
under 5 U.S.C. 804.
amozie on DSK9F9SC42PROD with RULES
IV. Executive Order 13771
This final rule is not subject to E.O.
13771, because this rule is not a
significant regulatory action under E.O.
12866.
V. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The change may 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.
GSA has prepared a Final Regulatory
Flexibility Analysis (FRFA) consistent
with the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5
U.S.C. 601, et seq. The FRFA is
summarized as follows:
In order to implement Public Law 110–248,
The Local Preparedness Acquisition Act,
GSA is adopting as final the interim rule as
laid out in GSAR Case 2008–G517, which
published in the Federal Register at 73 FR

Jkt 247001
54334, on September 19, 2008. The Act
amends section 502 of Title 40, United States
Code, to authorize the Administrator of
General Services to provide for the use by
State or local governments of Federal Supply
Schedules of the General Services
Administration (GSA) for alarm and signal
systems, facility management systems,
firefighting and rescue equipment, law
enforcement and security equipment, marine
craft and related equipment, special purpose
clothing, and related services (as contained
in Federal supply classification code group
84 or any amended or subsequent version of
that Federal supply classification group). The
rule opens the Federal Supply Schedule 84
for use by other governmental entities to
enhance intergovernmental cooperation. The
objective of this rule is to make
‘‘government’’ (considering all levels) more
efficient by reducing duplication of effort and
utilizing volume purchasing techniques for
the acquisition of law enforcement, security,
and certain other related items.
No public comments were submitted in
response to the interim rule. Therefore, there
are no changes from the interim rule made
in the final rule.
Interested parties may obtain a copy
of the FRFA from the Regulatory
Secretariat Division. The Regulatory
Secretariat Division has submitted a
copy of the FRFA to the Chief Counsel
for Advocacy of the Small Business
Administration.
