Department of Defense August 23, 2018 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) regulations, the FAR Council invites the public to comment upon a renewal concerning consent to subcontract, advance notification, and Contractors' purchasing system review.

This final rule removes the Department of Defense (DoD) regulation concerning defense support of special events. This part contains internal DoD policy and procedures and assigns responsibilities for support of civil authorities and qualifying entities during the conduct of special events; therefore, it does not require codification. DoD will remove this part but is providing notice published elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register to inform the public how civil authorities and qualifying entities may submit requests for special event support.
