Election Assistance Commission May 5, 2010 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Election Assistance Commission (EAC) invites the general public and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on proposed debarment and suspension regulations. These proposed regulations will apply to nonprocurement grants, cooperative agreements and other similar transactions. Under this system, a person who is debarred or suspended is excluded from federal financial and nonfinancial assistance and benefits under federal programs and activities. The proposed regulations adopt the format established by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in a document on nonprocurement debarment and suspension published in the Federal Register on August 31, 2005. In today's notice EAC proposes establishing a new 2 CFR chapter 58 Part 5800 that adopts OMB's final government-wide guidance on nonprocurement debarment and suspension and contains supplemental EAC nonprocurement debarment and suspension provisions.
