BILLING CODE 7020–02–P 

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE 

Antitrust Division 

Notice Pursuant to the Defense 

Production Act of 1950 

AGENCY: Antitrust Division, U.S. 

Department of Justice. 

ACTION: Notice of review of plan of 

action. 

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given 

pursuant to section 708 of the Defense 

Production Act of 1950 (‘‘DPA’’), that 

the Assistant Attorney General finds, 

with respect to the Plan of Action to 

Establish a National Strategy for the 

Manufacture, Allocation and 

Distribution of Personal Protective 

Equipment (PPE) to Respond to COVID– 

19 (‘‘Plan of Action’’) proposed by the 

Federal Emergency Management Agency 

(‘‘FEMA’’), that the purposes of section 

708(c)(1) of the DPA may not reasonably 

be achieved through a plan of action 

having less anticompetitive effects or 

without any plan of action. Given this 

finding, the proposed Plan of Action 

may become effective following the 

publication of this notice. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the 

DPA, FEMA may enter into plans with 

representatives of private industry for 

the purpose of improving the efficiency 

with which private firms contribute to 

the national defense when conditions 

exist that may pose a direct threat to the 

national defense or its preparedness. 

Such arrangements are generally known 

as ‘‘voluntary agreements.’’ Participants 

in an existing voluntary agreement may 

adopt documented methods, known as 


khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES
78870 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 235 / Monday, December 7, 2020 / Notices 

‘‘plans of action,’’ to implement that 

voluntary agreement. A defense to 

actions brought under the antitrust laws 

is available to each participant acting 

within the scope of a voluntary 

agreement and plan of action that has 

come into force under the DPA. 

The DPA requires that each proposed 

plan of action be reviewed by the 

Attorney General prior to becoming 

effective. If, after consulting with the 

Chairman of the Federal Trade 

Commission, the Attorney General finds 

that the purposes of the DPA’s plans of 

action provision ‘‘may not reasonably be 

achieved through a . . . plan of action 

having less anticompetitive effects or 

without any . . . plan of action,’’ the 

plan of action may become effective. 50 

U.S.C. 4558(f)(1)(B). All functions 

which the Attorney General is required 

or authorized to perform by section 708 

of the DPA have been delegated to the 

Assistant Attorney General, Antitrust 

Division. 28 CFR. 0.40(l). 

On August 17, 2020, the Voluntary 

Agreement for the Manufacture and 

Distribution of Critical Healthcare 

Resources Necessary to Respond to a 

Pandemic (‘‘Voluntary Agreement’’) 

became effective. The proposed Plan of 

Action contains documented methods to 

implement the Voluntary Agreement by 

creating a mechanism to immediately 

meet exigent PPE requests anywhere in 

the Nation, and to ensure that actions to 

support PPE stockpiling and reserves do 

not interfere with immediate 

requirements that would result in an 

unacceptable risk to healthcare 

providers or other potential PPE 

recipients. This mechanism involves the 

establishment several Sub-Committees 

by PPE type, which are designed to 

foster a close working relationship 

among FEMA, the Department of Health 

and Human Services (‘‘HHS’’), and 

participants in the Sub-Committees to 

address national defense needs through 

cooperative action under the direction 

and active supervision of FEMA. The 

proposed Plan of Action includes terms, 

conditions and procedures under which 

participants agree voluntarily to 

participate in the Sub-Committees. 

FEMA has certified that the proposed 

Plan of Action is necessary to provide 

for the national defense in the event of 

a pandemic. 

FEMA requested that the Assistant 

Attorney General, Antitrust Division, 

issue a finding that the proposed Plan 

of Action satisfies the statutory criteria 

set forth in 50 U.S.C. 4558(f)(1)(B). The 

Assistant Attorney General, Antitrust 

Division, reviewed the proposed Plan of 

Action and consulted on it with the 

Chairman of the Federal Trade 

Commission. On December 2, 2020, by 

letter to Peter Gaynor, FEMA 

Administrator, Makan Delrahim, 

Assistant Attorney General, Antitrust 

Division, issued a finding, pursuant to 

50 U.S.C. 4558(f)(1)(B), that the 

purposes of the DPA’s plans of action 

provision ‘‘may not reasonably be 

achieved through a . . . plan of action 

having less anticompetitive effects or 

without any . . . plan of action.’’
