492. FAR CASE 2006-005, HUBZONE PROGRAM REVISIONS
Legal Authority: 40 USC 121(c); 10 USC ch 137; 42 USC 2473(c)
Abstract: The Civilian Agency Acquisition Council and the Defense
Acquisition Regulations Council (Councils) are amending the Federal
Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to implement revisions to the Small
Business Administration's HUBZone Program as a result of revisions to
the Small Business Administration's regulations. This was not a
significant regulatory action and, therefore, was not subject to review

Review, dated September 30, 1993. This rule is not a major rule under 5
U.S.C. 804.

493. <> FAR CASE 2010-008, RECOVERY ACT SUBCONTRACT
REPORTING PROCEDURES
Legal Authority: 40 USC 121(c); 10 USC ch 137; 42 USC 2473(c)
Abstract: The Civilian Agency Acquisition Council and the Defense
Acquisition Regulations Council (Councils) are issuing an interim rule
amending the FAR to revise three subparagraphs and add one subparagraph
to the clause at FAR 52.204-11. This interim rule does not require
renegotiation of existing Recovery Act contracts that include the
clause dated March 2009 (published at 74 FR 14639). This change will
require first-tier subcontractors with Recovery Act funded awards of
$25,000 or more, to report jobs information to the prime contractor for
reporting into FederalReporting.gov. It also will require the prime
contractor to submit its first report on or before the 10th day after
the end of the calendar quarter in which the prime contractor received
the award, and quarterly thereafter.
This is a significant regulatory action and, therefore, was 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.

COMPENSATION AND FIRST-TIER SUBCONTRACT AWARDS
Legal Authority: 40 USC 121(c); 10 USC ch 137; 42 USC 2473(c)
Abstract: The Civilian Agency Acquisition Council and the Defense
Acquisition Regulations Council (the Councils) have agreed to issue an
interim rule to amend the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to
implement section 2 of the Federal Funding Accountability and
Transparency Act of 2006 (Pub. L. No. 109-282), as amended by section
6202 of Public Law 110-252, which requires the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) to establish a free, public, website containing full
disclosure of all Federal contract award information. This rule will
require contractors to report executive compensation and first-tier
subcontractor awards on contracts expected to be $25,000 or more,
except classified contracts, and contracts with individuals. This is a
significant regulatory action and, therefore, was 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.

Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to ensure that the FAR reflects the Small
Business Administration's (SBA) interpretation of the Small Business
Act and SBA regulations with regard to the relationship among various

subject to review under section 6(b) of Executive Order 12866,
Regulatory Planning and Review, dated September 30, 1993. The rule is
not a major rule under 5 U.S.C. 804.
