Defense Acquisition Regulations System

48 CFR Parts 212 and 252

[Docket DARS-2021-0001]


Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement: Technical 
Amendments

AGENCY: Defense Acquisition Regulations System, Department of Defense 
(DoD).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: DoD is making technical amendments to the Defense Federal 
Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to provide needed editorial 
changes.

DATES: Effective January 15, 2021.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Jennifer D. Johnson, Defense 
Acquisition Regulations System, OUSD(A&S)DPC(DARS), Room 3B938, 3060 
Defense Pentagon, Washington, DC 20301-3060. Telephone 571-372-6100.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This final rule amends the DFARS as follows:
    1. Corrects the numbering of paragraphs at section 212.301(f)(ii). 
On December 31, 2019, DoD published in the Federal Register at 84 FR 
72231 an interim rule titled ``Covered Defense Telecommunications 
Equipment or Services (DFARS Case 2018-D022)''. The rule added 
paragraphs (f)(ii)(H), (I), and (J); however the correct paragraph 
numbers should have reflected (f)(ii)(G), (H), and (I). A prior change 
to this section on October 31, 2019, published at 84 FR 58332, had 
redesignated paragraphs (f)(ii)(F) and (G) as paragraphs (f)(ii)(E) and 
(F); however, this redesignation was not reflected in the paragraph 
numbering in the December 19, 2019, publication. This sequence of 
events resulted in the current electronic Code of Federal Regulations 
(eCFR) not reflecting a paragraph (f)(ii)(G) in the numbering sequence, 
which this amendment corrects.
    2. Corrects DFARS clause 252.244-7000 in paragraph (d) by removing 
``(c)'' and adding ``(d)'' in its place. On

September 29, 2020, DoD published in the Federal Register at 85 FR 
60918 a final rule titled ``Treatment of Certain Items as Commercial 
Items (DFARS Case 2019-D029)'' that included this change; however, the 
revision is not reflected in the eCFR. This amendment corrects the 
eCFR.
