[Justice Acquisition Circular 98-1]


Amendment to the Justice Acquisition Regulations (JAR Regarding: 
Definitions

AGENCY: Justice Management Division, Justice.

ACTION: Final rule, correction.

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

SUMMARY: This document contains corrections to the final regulations 
(Justice Acquisition Regulations) that were published Thursday, April 
2, 1998 (63 FR 16118-16136). The regulations related to the reissuance 
of the JAR to implement regulatory changes resulting from the Federal 
Acquisition Reform Act, the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act and 
the recommendations of the National Performance Review.

EFFECTIVE DATE: May 14, 1998.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Janis Sposato, Procurement Executive, Justice Management Division (202) 
514-3103.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Background

    The final regulations that are the subject of these corrections 
superseded the 1985 version of the JAR and all amendments (Justice 
Acquisition Circulars 85-1 through 97-1) issued prior to the date of 
publication of that final rule.

B. Regulatory Flexibility Act

    The Department of Justice certifies that this final rule will not 
have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small 
entities within the meaning of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 
601 et seq., because the amendment sets forth only corrections to 
internal departmental procedures.

C. Paperwork Reduction Act

    The final rule imposes no new information collection requirements 
that require approval by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (Pub. L. 96-511). All 
information collection requirements have been submitted to OMB. In 
those cases where an OMB control number has been assigned, the control 
number is included in the regulation.
