DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

48 CFR Parts 225 and 252

 

Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement; Carbonyl Iron 
Powders

AGENCY: Department of Defense (DoD).

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Defense has amended the Defense Federal 
Acquisition Regulation Supplement to delete the restriction on the 
acquisition of carbonyl iron powders, which required that all carbonyl 
iron powders be manufactured in a facility located in the United States 
or Canada.

EFFECTIVE DATE: February 14, 1994.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Mrs. Alyce Sullivan, [phone].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Background

    Section 9151 of the Fiscal Year 1993 Defense Appropriations Act 
(Pub. L. 102-396) required that all carbonyl iron powders be 
manufactured in a facility located in the United States or Canada. 
Section 9151 applied only to Fiscal Year 1993. A similar restriction 
was not included in the Fiscal Year 1994 Defense Appropriations Act.
    The Director, Defense Procurement, issued Departmental Letter 94-
001, February 14, 1994, to delete the restriction on the acquisition of 
carbonyl iron powders from the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation 
Supplement (DFARS Case 94-D301).

B. Regulatory Flexibility Act

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act applies but is not expected to have 
a significant impact on a substantial number of small entities because 
it removes a statutory restriction on the acquisition of carbonyl iron 
powders, and the restriction is no longer in effect.

C. Paperwork Reduction Act

    The Paperwork Reduction Act does not apply because the revisions do 
not contain and/or affect information collection requirements which 
require the approval of OMB under 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.
