AGENCY: Department of Defense (DOD), General Services Administration
(GSA), and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
ACTION: Interim rule adopted as final.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Civilian Agency Acquisition Council and the Defense
Acquisition Regulations Council have agreed to convert the interim rule
published in the Federal Register at 56 FR 67412, December 30, 1991
(FAC 90-10, Item I), to a final rule with no change. This rule amended
the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) by increasing the threshold
for submission of cost or pricing data from $100,000 to $500,000 for
DOD, NASA, and the Coast Guard.
EFFECTIVE DATE: March 10, 1994.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Jeremy F. Olson at (202) 501-3221
in reference to this FAR case. For general information, contact the FAR
Secretariat, room 4037, GS Building, Washington, DC 20405 (202) 501-
4755. Please cite FAC 90-20, FAR case 91-53.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Background
These revisions are based on section 803 of Public Law 101-150,
which amended subsection 2306a(a)(1) of title 10, United States Code,
by increasing the threshold for submission of cost or pricing data from
$100,000 to $500,000 for DOD, NASA, and the Coast Guard.
B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Department of Defense, the General Services Administration, and
the National Aeronautics and Space Administration certify that this
final rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities under the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C.
601, et seq., because most contracts awarded to small entities are
awarded on a competitive, fixed-price basis and the requirements for
certified cost or pricing data do not apply.
C. Paperwork Reduction Act
The Paperwork Reduction Act 44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq., applies
because the final rule contains information collection requirements.
Approval for the revised burden was granted under OMB Control Number
9000-0013.
