Download as PDF 4562 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 16 / Wednesday, January 24, 2024 / Rules and Regulations under FFDCA section 408(d), such as the exemptions in this final rule, do not require the issuance of a proposed rule, the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), do not apply. This action directly regulates growers, food processors, food handlers, and food retailers, not States or Tribes, nor does this action alter the relationships or distribution of power and responsibilities established by Congress in the preemption provisions of FFDCA section 408(n)(4). As such, the Agency has determined that this action will not have a substantial direct effect on States or Tribal Governments, on the relationship between the National Government and the States or Tribal Governments, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government or between the Federal Government and Indian tribes. Thus, the Agency has determined that Executive Order 13132, entitled ‘‘Federalism’’ (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999) and Executive Order 13175, entitled ‘‘Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments’’ (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000) do not apply to this action. In addition, this action does not impose any enforceable duty or contain any unfunded mandate as described under Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) (2 U.S.C. 1501 et seq.). This action does not involve any technical standards that would require Agency consideration of voluntary consensus standards pursuant to section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15 U.S.C. 272 note). VIII. Congressional Review Act Pursuant to the Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.), EPA will submit a report containing this rule and other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. This action is not a ‘‘major rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).

Background NASA proposed a rule in the Federal Register at 88 FR 67720 on October 2, 2023, to amend the NFS by removing NFS 1831.205–671, Solicitation provision, and NFS 1852.231–71, Determination of Compensation Reasonableness, from the NFS. NASA has determined these provisions are unnecessary as they exceed the scope requirements adequately covered in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) provision 52.222–46, Evaluation of Compensation for Professional Employees (48 CFR 52.222–46). Currently, NFS requires an evaluation for all labor categories and periodic review of total compensation plans after contract award for cost reimbursement PO 00000 Frm 00025 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 contracts (at least every 3 years) to evaluate the reasonableness of compensation for all proposed labor categories in service contracts. NASA has made a determination to rely on FAR provision 52.222–46, agencywide templates, and instructions, to ensure consistency in the data provided to NASA and subsequent evaluations to ensure NASA continues to pay fair and reasonable wages. II. Discussion As no public comments were submitted on the proposed rule, NASA is finalizing this rule with no 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 E:\FR\FM\24JAR1.SGM 24JAR1
