Department of Homeland Security September 6, 2012 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

DHS is correcting a final rule that appeared in the Federal Register of August 22, 2012. As published, the final rule incorrectly uses the word (DATE) in several places in part 3052 of title 48 of the Code of Federal Regulations. We are correcting each instance of (DATE) to correctly state the appropriate date of ``(SEP 2012)''. The final rule amended multiple sections of the Homeland Security Acquisition Regulation (HSAR) to align existing content with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR); implemented Section 695 of the Post- Katrina Emergency Management Reform Act of 2006 by restricting the length of certain noncompetitive contracts entered into by the Department of Homeland Security to facilitate the response to or recovery from a natural disaster, act of terrorism, or other manmade disaster; clarified agency acquisition regulations; and made editorial corrections.
