Acquisition Regulation: Make-or-Buy 

Plans

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

SUMMARY: The Department of Energy 

(DOE) is proposing to amend the 

Department of Energy Acquisition

the value to the Department 

commensurate with the costs of its 

implementation. The proposed rule 

would eliminate the burden of make-orbuy analysis.

DATES: Written comments on the 

proposed rulemaking must be received 

on or before close of business January 

14, 2005.

ADDRESSES: This proposed rule is 

available and comments may be
