facility that will accommodate 800,000

cubic feet of waste from generators

located within the borders of the

existing party states.

(d) To be eligible for Compact

membership, a state must agree to

establish a uniform fee schedule for

waste disposal at the regional disposal

facility that shall apply to all generators

within the region. That uniform fee

schedule, including all surcharges

(except new surcharges imposed

pursuant to Article V.f.3. of the

Compact), shall not exceed the average

fees that generators within the existing

party states paid for disposal at the

Barnwell, South Carolina, facility at the

end of calendar year 1999, adjusted

annually based on an acceptable

inflation index.

(e) To be eligible for Compact

membership, a state must agree with the

existing states that regional generators

shall be permitted to process or dispose

of waste at sites outside the Compact

boundaries based solely on the

judgment and discretion of each

regional generator.

(f) To be eligible for Compact

membership, a state must agree with the

existing states that the Commission may

authorize importation of waste from

non-regional generators for the purpose

of disposal only if the host state

approves and such importation does not

jeopardize the warranted availability of

800,000 cubic feet of disposal capacity

for waste produced by generators within

the existing party states. A new party

state must agree that regional generators

shall not pay higher fees than nonregional generators and that all books

and records related to the establishment

or collection of fees shall be available

for Commission review.

(g) To be eligible for Compact

membership, in addition to the express

limitations on non-host state and

Commission liability provided in the

Compact, a state must agree to

indemnify the Commission or the

existing party states for any damages

incurred solely because of the new

state’s membership in the Compact and

for any damages associated with any

injury to persons or property during the

institutional control period as a result of

the radioactive waste and waste

management operations of any regional

facility. The petitioning state must agree

that this indemnification obligation will

survive the termination of the

petitioning state’s membership in the

Compact.

(h) To be eligible for Compact

membership, a state must agree that any

incentive payments made by the

existing party states as an inducement

for a state to join the Compact will be

returned to the existing party states,

with interest, on a pro rata basis if, for

any reason, the regional disposal facility

ceases to be available to generators in

the existing party states for a period of

more than six months (other than

periods that have been expressly

approved and authorized by the

Commission) or is unavailable for

disposal of 800,000 cubic feet of waste

from generators within the borders of

the existing states. In the event of such

unavailability, the new party state must

agree to return the incentive payments

based on the following schedule:

(1) 75% of the incentive payment if

the regional facility becomes

unavailable prior to January 1, 2002;

(2) 50% of the incentive payment if

the regional facility becomes

unavailable on or after January 1, 2002,

and prior to January 1, 2004;

(3) 30% of the incentive payment if

the regional facility becomes

unavailable on or after January 1, 2004,

and prior to January 1, 2006;

(4) 20% of the incentive payment if

the regional facility becomes

unavailable on or after January 1, 2006,

and prior to January 1, 2009;

(5) 10% of the incentive payment if

the regional facility becomes

unavailable on or after January 1, 2009,

and prior to the time when all currently

licensed nuclear power stations within

the region have been fully

decommissioned and their licenses

(including any licenses for storage of

spent nuclear fuel under 10 CFR Part

72) have been terminated.

(i) To be eligible for Compact

membership, a state must agree with the

existing states that once a new party

state has been admitted to membership

in the Compact pursuant to the rules in

this part, declaration of any other state

as an eligible party state will require the

unanimous consent of all members of

the Commission.

§ 1800.14 Modification to and enforcement

of the rules in this part.

(a) Because of the importance of the

conditions for declaration of an eligible

state under the Compact, the rules in

this part may only be modified,

amended, or rescinded after a public

hearing held pursuant to Article IV.i.(6)

of the Compact and Article V.F.1. of the

Commission’s By Laws and by a

unanimous vote of all members of the

Commission.

(b) Any party state may enforce the

rules in this part by bringing an action

against or on behalf of the Commission

in the United States District Court for

the District of Columbia pursuant to

Article IV.n. of the Compact.

(c) If, for any reason, any portion of

the rules in this part shall be declared

invalid or unenforceable, the remainder

of the rules in this part shall remain in

full force and effect.

SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION

13 CFR Part 121

Small Business Size Regulations; Size

Standards and the North American

Industry Classification System

AGENCY: Small Business Administration.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: The Small Business

Administration (SBA) is amending its

size regulations by establishing a new

table of small business size standards

for industries as the North American

Industry Classification System (NAICS)

defines them. These new size standards

are effective beginning with Fiscal Year

2001, which starts on October 1, 2000.

Small business size standards currently

exist for most industries under the

Standard Industrial Classification (SIC)

system. SBA has determined that NAICS

is a better description of industries in

the U.S. economy than the SIC system

for purposes of establishing size

standards.

DATES: This rule is effective October 1,

2000.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Carl

Jordan, Office of Size Standards, at (202)

205–6618.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Introduction

Under section 3(a)(2) of the Small

Business Act, SBA establishes small

business definitions, or size standards,

by industry category and varies size

standards as necessary to reflect

industry differences to determine small

business eligibility for Federal

programs. The current table of size

standards uses SIC industry

descriptions as the basis for the size

standards. Because NAICS replaced the

SIC system for use by Federal agencies

in collecting economic data, we

reviewed NAICS to determine whether

we should also use the NAICS industry

descriptions to establish small business

size standards. Based on that review, we

proposed in the October 22, 1999,

Federal Register (64 FR 57187–57286)

to adopt a new table of small business

size standards for industries as they are

described in NAICS, effective October 1,

2000.

Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 94 / Monday, May 15, 2000 / Rules and Regulations 30837

The new table would replace the

existing table of size standards for

industries as they are described in the

SIC system. We invited comments from

interested parties on our proposal to

adopt NAICS-based size standards.

Specifically, we requested comments on

at least the following: (1) Is FY 2001 an

appropriate effective date? (2) Are the

guidelines that we used in proposing

the new size standards appropriate? (3)

Will there be a significant impact on

firms in an industry where some firms

will lose size eligibility or formerly large

firms will now become small? (4) If the

answer to (3) is yes, how can we

eliminate or minimize that potential

impact?

NAICS was designed, as was the SIC

system, solely for statistical purposes.

The Office of Management and Budget

(OMB) published a ‘‘Notice of final

decision’’ in the Federal Register on

April 9, 1997 (62 FR 17288–17478),

announcing its decision to adopt

NAICS. OMB’s notice stated that

‘‘NAICS shall not be used in any

administrative, regulatory, or tax

program unless the head of the agency

administering that program has first

determined that the use of such industry

definitions is appropriate for

implementation of the program’s

objectives.’’ As the Administrator of

SBA I have determined that NAICS

industry descriptions are more

appropriate than SIC industry

descriptions to use in SBA programs

and to accomplish our Agency’s

mission. Further, all Federal Agencies,

in accordance with section 3(a)(2) of the

Small Business Act, must use SBA’s

established size standards to categorize

a business as a small business concern,

unless the agencies: (1) Are authorized

by statute to do otherwise; or (2) have

obtained the SBA Administrator’s

approval for an alternative. NAICS is an

improvement over the SIC system in

identifying and describing industries in

the U.S. economy, and size standards

established for NAICS industries will

better define small business. This final

rule adopts the proposed size standards

and specifies an effective date of

October 1, 2000.

Summary of Comments

We received three comments to the

proposed rule, each of which supported

it. Two comments were from industry

associations, and the third is from an

SBA office. Besides supporting the

proposed rule, the comments included

some other observations and

suggestions. We will summarize and

address their comments here.

1. An association representing moving

and storage companies supports our

proposal to issue the new table of size

standards based on NAICS using our

proposed methodology, and also

supports October 1, 2000, as the

implementation date if an earlier one is

not practicable. We stated in the

October 22, 1999, proposed rule why we

believe October 1, 2000, is the

appropriate date. Our three reasons

concerned consistency in government

recordkeeping and statistics,

development of historical data for

comparison purposes, and the need for

time to convert and update data bases

and tracking systems (see 64 FR 57190).

The association also commented on its

understanding of certain specific NAICS

codes and how those NAICS codes will

apply to future Federal government and

military contracts. The association

indicates that it ‘‘does not believe that

any firms in the moving and storage

industry will be affected by this change,

as the same $18.5 million size standard

will apply as is currently in place.’’ We

believe this supports our conclusions

that because we applied the guidelines

consistently, the size standards we

proposed are appropriate and that this

change will cause little loss of small

business eligibility, if any, to businesses

currently eligible to participate in

Federal small business programs.

2. A coalition of environmental

contractors supported SBA’s

methodology and the FY 2001

implementation date as well. They

raised, however, questions about two

NAICS codes for which we established

a $5.0 million size standard.

Specifically, the coalition questioned

whether $5 million is appropriate for

NAICS codes 514199, ‘‘All Other

Information Services,’’ and 541620,

‘‘Environmental Consulting Services.’’

NAICS codes 514199 and 541620 are

two activities related to SIC 8999,

‘‘Services, NEC’’ (specifically,

Miscellaneous Information Providers

and Environmental Consultants), both of

which are new NAICS industries. The

current size standard for SIC 8999 is $5

million.

Concerning NAICS 514199, it is one

of five industries within Subsector 514,

‘‘Information Services and Data

Processing Services.’’ Four of those

NAICS industries are related to and the

same as four SIC industries. Two of

them, namely NAICS 514191 (On-Line

Information Services) and NAICS

514210 (Data Processing Services) are

Computer Services. All industry

activities described within SIC codes

7371 through 7379 have the same $18.0

million size standard. We applied the

first proposed guideline, and therefore,

$18.0 million is the correct size

standard for NAICS 514191 and NAICS

514210. The other two NAICS codes,

namely NAICS 514110 (News

Syndicates) and NAICS 514120

(Libraries and Archives) are related to

and the same as SIC 7383 (News

Syndicates) and SIC 8231 (Libraries)

respectively. The size standards for SIC

7383 and 8231 are $5.0 million. We

applied the first proposed guideline,

and therefore, $5.0 million is the correct

size standard for NAICS 514110 and

NAICS 514120. While all of these

industries are parts of Subsector 514

(Information Services and Data

Processing Services), NAICS 514199

specifically excludes news syndicates,

libraries, archives and on-line

information access. Further, NAICS

514199 is only related to part of SIC

8999, ‘‘Services, NEC,’’ and it is limited

to ‘‘miscellaneous information

providers.’’ Therefore, consistent with

the first guideline, and the other

industries in this Subsector, $5.0

million is the correct size standard for

NAICS 514199.

Concerning NAICS 541620,

‘‘Environmental Consulting Services,’’

the coalition further suggested that the

size standard should be 500 employees,

the same as we established for

‘‘Environmental Remediation Services,’’

a segment of SIC 8744, ‘‘Facilities

Support Management Services.’’

Consistent with the fourth proposed

guideline, we retained this activity and

its corresponding size standard of 500

employees as a segment within NAICS

562910 ‘‘Remediation Services.’’ NAICS

562910 is an industry related to part of

SIC 1799, ‘‘Special Trade Contractors,

NEC.’’ Because the size standard for SIC

1799 is $7 million, we are retaining $7

million as the size standard for NAICS

562910. This is consistent with the first

proposed guideline.

The distinction between

‘‘Remediation Services’’ and

‘‘Environmental Remediation Services’’

lies in the extent and complexity of

work to be performed on a specific

Federal government contract.

‘‘Environmental Consulting Services’’ is

one activity, and, as the coalition notes,

often conducted in conjunction with an

environmental remediation contract.

However, ‘‘Environmental Remediation

Services’’ requires that (1) the purpose

of the procurement be the restoration of

a contaminated environment, i.e.,

environmental remediation, and (2) the

procurement be composed of activities

in three or more separate industries,

none of which constitutes 50% or more

of the contract value, and each of which

would, if it were a separate contract, be

a different NAICS (formerly SIC) code.

Footnote 14 more fully details when 500

employees is the appropriate size

30838 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 94 / Monday, May 15, 2000 / Rules and Regulations

standard for an Environmental

Remediation Services contract.

Therefore, the size standards for

NAICS 541620 and NAICS 562910 will

be $5 million and $7 million

respectively. The contracting officer will

assign the NAICS code together with its

small business size standard that best

describes the principal purpose of the

contract to be performed. If

Environmental Consulting Services is

the principal purpose of a Federal

government procurement, the

appropriate NAICS code is 541620 and

the size standard is $5 million. If the

principal purpose of the Federal

government procurement is

Environmental Remediation Services

and it meets the conditions stated in

Footnote 14, the contracting officer will

assign NAICS 562910 with the 500

employee size standard. We recognize

that these three industries are closely

related. As industry data become

available for these industries, we will

reconsider their size standard(s).

Lastly, the coalition suggests we

review the $5 million ‘‘anchor’’ size

standard for industries generally

classified as Services. In 1994 we

increased nearly all receipts based size

standards because inflation had reduced

the number of small businesses eligible

to participate in Federal programs

reserved for small business. We are

reviewing all receipts based small

business size standards to determine the

extent of inflation since the 1994

increase, and whether we should adjust

the size standards to reflect inflation’s

effects since then. Once we determine

the need for an increase, we will

publish a proposed rule in the Federal

Register concerning the change.

While we are open to requests to

change one or more size standards, this

rule is limited to replacing the existing

table of small business size standards

with a new one based on more current

and accurate industry definitions. This

rule does not reevaluate existing small

business size standards nor does it

intend to change any. We modify size

standards occasionally, but only after

we have separately evaluated individual

industries and their size standards.

Such modifications are separate SBA

actions. Following the requirements set

forth in the Administrative Procedure

Act, we fully explain our methodology

and reasons for a contemplated change,

and do not make changes without

having provided an opportunity for

public comment.

For example, we have proposed

increasing size standards for the Help

Supply Services (SIC 7363), 11 of the 19

Health Services (Major Group 80), the

General and Special Construction

Industries (Major Groups 15, 16 and 17),

Garbage and Refuse Collection (part of

SIC 4212) and Refuse Systems (SIC

4953). The comment period is closed on

those proposed rules, and we will

publish our decision on them as Final

Rules in the Federal Register in the near

future. However, those size standards,

once published as final, will apply to

industries in the current table of size

standards based on the SIC system, until

October 1, 2000. From that date forward

they will apply to the related industries

as they are described in NAICS. The

table that is the subject of this rule is

based only on existing size standards.

3. The SBA comment noted that in

Table IV of the proposed rule we did not

affix Footnote 10 to NAICS codes

531311, 531312, 531390 and 561920,

but had listed those NAICS codes in the

text of Footnote 10 as if the footnote

applied to those codes. Footnote 10

allows firms in those industries to

exclude certain amounts when

calculating average annual receipts

under 13 CFR 121.104(a)(1). Footnote 10

to this table is the same as Footnote 6

to the table based on SIC industry

descriptions.

Footnote 10 does not apply to firms in

NAICS codes 531311 (Residential

Property Managers), 531312

(Nonresidential Property Managers) and

531390 (Other Activities Related to Real

Estate), since they do not work on

commission. Including them in the list

of NAICS codes to which Footnote 10

applied was inadvertent on our part.

Therefore, we modify Footnote 10 to

apply only to NAICS 531210 (Offices of

Real Estate Agents and Brokers), NAICS

541810 (Advertising Agencies), NAICS

561510 (Travel Agencies) and NAICS

561920 (Convention and Trade Show

Organizers).

The SBA comment also noted that the

proposed rule did not reflect the change

of the acronym SIC to NAICS in

§§ 121.103(f)(3)(i), 121.103(f)(3)(i)(A),

and 121.103(f)(3)(iii). We overlooked

those changes in the proposed rule, but

have included them in this final rule.

The changes are not substantive. Rather,

‘‘NAICS’’ replaces ‘‘SIC’’ there as it does

in the other sections of this part. They

are the logical outgrowth of this overall

change. There were no other comments

in this regard.

Reasons for This Change

We explained in our October 22,

1999, proposed rule why we believed a

new table of size standards based on

NAICS should replace the existing table

based on SIC. NAICS is a significant

improvement over the SIC system and

provides a better structure on which to

establish size standards by industry

category. NAICS was developed to

describe the structure of today’s

economy. We have determined that the

new table of small business size

standards reflecting NAICS industries is

in the interests of small business. We

stated in our October 22, 1999, proposed

rule why we believe we should use

NAICS for small business size

standards, namely because (1) the SIC

system has not kept up with the

economy; (2) NAICS recognizes the

growth and expansion of the services

and technological industries; (3) the

Census Bureau will no longer organize

and make data available for SIC

industries after the 1997 Economic

Census; and (4) we believe that all other

Federal agencies will switch to NAICS

for their program and administrative

purposes. Having a single industry

classification system within the Federal

government will avoid confusion and

inconsistency that would likely result if

we delay issuing a new table of size

standards based on NAICS.

Implementation Date of NAICS Size

Standards

NAICS-based size standards are

effective for all Federal small business

programs beginning with FY 2001,

which starts October 1, 2000. We have

selected this date to implement NAICSbased size standards because (1) Federal

government recordkeeping and statistics

will be more consistent and comparable

with past data and for analyzing future

small business activity if

implementation of the new table of size

standards is at the beginning of a fiscal

year; (2) we and other users of size

standards will need to collect data on

small business programs on the NAICS

format to be able to compare those data

with the future Federal statistics; and (3)

small business size standards apply to

most Federal agencies and their

programs involving small businesses,

and they will need time to determine

how to implement the new size

standards and to develop training tools

necessary to do so.

Present Status of NAICS

OMB adopted NAICS to replace the

1987 SIC system. NAICS is based on

concepts developed by the U.S.

Economic Classification Policy

Committee (ECPC), an interagency

committee established by OMB, with

Statistics Canada and Mexico’s Instituto

Nacional de Estadı ́stica Geografı ́a e

Informatı ́ca. We did not in our proposed

rule, nor do we here, include the entire

texts of OMB’s or ECPC’s documents.

We suggest that interested parties

review the April 9, 1997, Federal

Register (62 FR 17288–17478) notice,

Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 94 / Monday, May 15, 2000 / Rules and Regulations 30839

together with earlier Federal Register

notices, proposed rules and other papers

and documents that preceded and

followed that final notice. We believe

that this will help interested parties

understand NAICS better and increase

their awareness of the changes that may

affect them and their industry. Copies of

all Federal Register notices, including

SBA’s October 22, 1999, proposed rule,

are available from the Superintendent of

Documents, U.S. Government Printing

Office, Washington, DC 20402, or by

calling 1 (202) 512–1800. Those with

access to the Internet can obtain all

Federal Register notices for 1995 and

forward via GPO Access at http://

www.access.gpo.gov/su_docs. In

addition, the U.S. Department of

Commerce, Bureau of Census (Census

Bureau) at http://www.census.gov/epcd/

www/naics.html has the April 9, 1997,

Federal Register notice and other

NAICS related documents.

How We Converted the Size Standards

From SIC-Based to NAICS-Based

The October 22, 1999, proposed rule

contains a full description of our

methodology in determining the correct

size standards to use for the NAICS

industry descriptions. We included a

table (Table III in the proposed rule) that

summarized guidelines for the

conversions. Comments supported our

methodology and this rule is the result

of our applying them consistently.

Therefore, we have made no changes to

the size standards we proposed in that

notice. We repeat those guidelines

below in Table I, which is the same as

Table III in the proposed rule.

TABLE I

If the NAICS industry is composed of: The size standard for the NAICS industry is:

1. One SIC industry or part of one SIC industry ...................................... The same size standard as for the SIC industry or part.

e.g., NAICS 331221, NAICS 513111, NAICS 513112, NAICS 513120

2. More than one SIC industry; parts of more than one SIC industry; or

one or more SIC industry and part(s) of one or more SIC industry,

The same size standard as for those SIC industries or parts of SIC industries.

And

they all have the same size standard.

e.g., NAICS 315234, NAICS 513330, NAICS 561599

3. More than one SIC industry; parts of more than one SIC industry; or

one or more SIC industry and part(s) of one or more SIC industry,

The same size standard as for the SIC industry or SIC industry part(s)

that most closely matches the economic activity described by the

NAICS industry.

And

they do not all have the same size standard.

e.g., NAICS 332999, NAICS 334119, NAICS 334612, NAICS 442110, NAICS 487210, NAICS 487990, NAICS 488310, NAICS 532120, NAICS

532220, NAICS 561621, NAICS 711510, NAICS 812220, NAICS 813990

4. One or more parts of an SIC industry for which SBA has established

specific size standards (i.e., further segmented).

The same size standard as for that specific SIC industry part.

e.g., NAICS 234990, NAICS 441229, NAICS 531190, NAICS 541330, NAICS 611512

5. One or more SIC industries and/or parts of SIC industries that were

categorized broadly under the SIC system as Services, Retail Trade,

Wholesale Trade or Manufacturing, but are now categorized differently under NAICS.

SBA applied (a) a size standard measure (e.g., number of employees,

annual receipts) typical of the NAICS Sector; and (b) the corresponding ‘‘anchor’’ size standard. The ‘‘anchor’’ size standards are

$5 million for Services and Retail Trade, 500 employees for Manufacturing and 100 employees for Wholesale Trade (except for Federal procurement programs, where the standard is 500 employees

under the non-manufacturer rule).

e.g., NAICS 311811, NAICS 326212, NAICS 334611, NAICS 339116, NAICS 421990, NAICS 441310

Following these guidelines we

produced a table of small business size

standards that accomplished our

objectives. There are approximately

1,175 NAICS industries, and small

business size standards for virtually all

economic activities within the SIC

codes remain the same in NAICS. Most

of the NAICS small business size

standards resulted from applying the

first two guidelines. There were no

comments suggesting that SBA should

consider modifying the guidelines.

Besides the guidelines, SBA included

in the October 22, 1999, proposed rule

a complete table that showed each

NAICS industry with the SIC industry

or industries that are related to it. That

table (Table IV in the proposed rule)

provided the existing size standard(s)

for the associated SIC code(s) and the

proposed size standard for each NAICS

code, as they result from applying the

guidelines. Because we applied these

guidelines consistently, and the only

comments on them that we received

were favorable, we are not repeating that

table in this rule. Interested parties may

refer to the October 22, 1999, proposed

rule (64 FR 57187–57286), as cited

above, or visit SBA’s Web site on size

standards site at http://www.sba.gov/

size/, and select ‘‘What’s New.’’

Compliance With Executive Order

12866, the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5

U.S.C. 601–612), the Paperwork

Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 Ch. 35),

and Executive Orders and 12988 and

13132

SBA has determined that this rule is

not a significant rule within the

meaning of Executive Order 12866. For

purposes of the Regulatory Flexibility

Act, SBA certifies that the rule will

affect a significant number of small

businesses, but that the impact of the

30840 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 94 / Monday, May 15, 2000 / Rules and Regulations

rule on each business will not be

substantial.

This rule applies to all small entities

and Federal programs reserved for small

entities, except those specifically

excluded by Federal legislation or

elsewhere under 13 CFR part 121. SBA

estimates that relatively few firms will

gain or lose small business status

because of this rule. Though SBA is

establishing a new table of size

standards, firms that are now eligible for

Federal small business programs will

remain eligible to the maximum extent

practicable.

There are three significant benefits to

this rule. (a) Size standards are based on

the most current industry descriptions.

(b) Since SBA uses Census data to

establish, review, change and/or

otherwise modify small business size

standards, data SBA obtains from the

Census Bureau will be the most recent

and accurate economic data available.

(c) Collecting and analyzing statistical

data on small business participation in

the Federal procurement process will be

more accurate, particularly in the

technological and services industries.

SBA believes that this rule will

impose no additional costs on the

public. Further, the new NAICS-based

table of small business size standards

does not add any significant costs to

Federal Government programs reserved

for small businesses. Federal agencies

and other users bear the administrative

costs associated with converting from

the SIC system to NAICS.

For the purpose of the Paperwork

Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.,

SBA has determined that this rule does

not impose new reporting or record

keeping requirements. For purposes of

Executive Order 12988, SBA certifies

that this rule is drafted, to the extent

possible under standards in section 3 of

the order. For purposes of Executive

Order 13132, SBA has determined that

this rule does not have any federalism

implications warranting the preparation

List of Subjects in 13 CFR Part 121

Government procurement,

Government property, Grant programsbusiness, Loan programs-business,

Small business.

For the reasons stated in the

preamble, SBA is amending 13 CFR

PART 121 as follows:

PART 121—SMALL BUSINESS SIZE

REGULATIONS

1. The authority citation of part 121

continues to read as follows:

Authority: Pub. L. 105–135 sec. 601 et seq.,

111 Stat. 2592; 15 U.S.C. 632(a), 634(b)(6),

637(a), and 644(c); and Pub. L. 102–486, 106

Stat. 2776, 3133.

2. Revise § 121.101 to read as follows:

§ 121.101 What are SBA size standards?

(a) SBA’s size standards define

whether a business entity is small and,

thus, eligible for Government programs

and preferences reserved for ‘‘small

business’’ concerns. Size standards have

been established for types of economic

activity, or industry, generally under the

North American Industry Classification

System (NAICS).

(b) NAICS is described in the North

American Industry Classification

Manual—United States, 1997 which is

available from the National Technical

Information Service, 5285 Port Royal

Road, Springfield, VA 22161; by calling

1(800) 553–6847 or 1(703) 605–6000; or

via the Internet at http://www.ntis.gov/

yellowbk/1nty205.htm. The manual

includes definitions for each industry,

tables showing relationships between

1997 NAICS and 1987 SICs, and a

comprehensive index. NAICS assigns

codes to all economic activity within

twenty broad sectors. Section 121.201

provides a full table of small business

size standards matched to the U.S.

NAICS industry codes. A full table

matching a size standard with each

NAICS Industry or U.S. Industry code is

also published annually by SBA in the

Federal Register.

§ 121.103 [Amended]

3. Amend § 121.103 as follows:

a. In paragraph (f)(3)(i) introductory

text, replace the acronym ‘‘SIC’’ with

the acronym ‘‘NAICS.’’

b. In paragraph (f)(3)(i)(B)(1) replace

the acronym ‘‘SIC’’ with the acronym

‘‘NAICS.’’

c. In paragraph (f)(3)(iii) replace the

acronym ‘‘SIC’’ with the acronym

‘‘NAICS.’’

4. Revise § 121.201 to read as follows:

§ 121.201 What size standards has SBA

identified by North American Industry

Classification System codes?

The size standards described in this

section apply to all SBA programs

unless otherwise specified in this part.

The size standards themselves are

expressed either in number of

employees or annual receipts in

millions of dollars, unless otherwise

specified. The number of employees or

annual receipts indicates the maximum

allowed for a concern and its affiliates

to be considered small.

Footnotes

[As noted at the head of the table in the

Supplementary Information above, the

following footnotes relate only to SBA’s

proposed size standards. Footnotes to

existing size standards follow the table of

size standards in the Supplementary

Information above.]

1. NAICS codes 221111, 221112, 221113,

221119, 221121, 221122—A firm is small if,

including its affiliates, it is primarily engaged

in the generation, transmission, and/or

distribution of electric energy for sale and its

total electric output for the preceding fiscal

year did not exceed 4 million megawatt

hours.

2. NAICS code 234990—Dredging: To be

considered small for purposes of Government

procurement, a firm must perform at least 40

percent of the volume dredged with its own

equipment or equipment owned by another

small dredging concern.

3. NAICS code 311421—For purposes of

Government procurement for food canning

and preserving, the standard of 500

employees excludes agricultural labor as

defined in 3306(k) of the Internal Revenue

Code, 26 U.S.C. § 3306(k).

4. NAICS code 324110—For purposes of

Government procurement, the firm may not

have more than 1,500 employees nor more

than 75,000 barrels per day capacity of

petroleum-based inputs, including crude oil

or bona fide feedstocks. Capacity includes

owned or leased facilities as well as facilities

under a processing agreement or an

arrangement such as an exchange agreement

or a throughput. The total product to be

delivered under the contract must be at least

90 percent refined by the successful bidder

from either crude oil or bona fide feedstocks.

5. NAICS code 326211—For Government

procurement, a firm is small for bidding on

a contract for pneumatic tires within Census

Classification codes 30111 and 30112,

provided that:

(a) The value of tires within Census

Classification codes 30111 and 30112 which

it manufactured in the United States during

the previous calendar year is more than 50

percent of the value of its total worldwide

manufacture,

(b) the value of pneumatic tires within

Census Classification codes 30111 and 30112

comprising its total worldwide manufacture

during the preceding calendar year was less

than 5 percent of the value of all such tires

manufactured in the United States during

that period, and

(c) the value of the principal product

which it manufactured or otherwise

produced, or sold worldwide during the

preceding calendar year is less than 10

percent of the total value of such products

manufactured or otherwise produced or sold

in the United States during that period.

6. NAICS Subsectors 333, 334, 335 and

336—For rebuilding machinery or equipment

on a factory basis, or equivalent, use the

NAICS code for a newly manufactured

product. Concerns performing major

rebuilding or overhaul activities do not

necessarily have to meet the criteria for being

a ‘‘manufacturer’’ although the activities may

be classified under a manufacturing NAICS

code. Ordinary repair services or

preservation are not considered rebuilding.

7. NAICS code 336413—Contracts for the

rebuilding or overhaul of aircraft ground

support equipment on a contract basis are

classified under NAICS code 336413.

522190, 522210 and 522930—A financial

institution’s assets are determined by

averaging the assets reported on its four

quarterly financial statements for the

preceding year. ‘‘Assets’’ for the purposes of

this size standard means the assets defined

according to the Federal Financial

Institutions Examination Council 034 call

report form.

9. NAICS code 531190—Leasing of

building space to the Federal Government by

Owners: For Government procurement, a size

standard of $15.0 million in gross receipts

but excluding funds received in trust for an

unaffiliated third party, such as bookings or

sales subject to commissions. The

commissions received are included as

revenue.

11. NAICS code 541710—For research and

development contracts requiring the delivery

of a manufactured product, the appropriate

size standard is that of the manufacturing

industry.

(a) ‘‘Research and Development’’ means

laboratory or other physical research and

development. It does not include economic,

educational, engineering, operations,

systems, or other nonphysical research; or

computer programming, data processing,

commercial and/or medical laboratory

testing.

(b) For purposes of the Small Business

Innovation Research (SBIR) program only, a

different definition has been established by

law. See § 121.701 of these regulations.

systems (not programming), word processing,

travel arrangements, maintaining files and/or

libraries.

13. NAICS code 235990 (All Other Special

Trade Contractors) and NAICS code 561210

(Facilities Support Services)—Base

Maintenance:

(a) If one of the activities of base

maintenance, as defined in paragraph (b)

(below in this endnote) can be identified

with a separate industry and that activity (or

industry) accounts for 50 percent or more of

the value of an entire contract, then the

proper size standard is that of the particular

industry, and not the base maintenance size

standard.

(b) ‘‘Base Maintenance’’ requires the

performance of three or more separate

activities in the areas of service or special

trade construction industries. If services are

performed, these activities must each be in a

separate NAICS code including, but not

limited to, Janitorial and Custodial Service,

Fire Prevention Service, Messenger Service,

Commissary Service, Protective Guard

Service, and Grounds Maintenance and

Landscaping Service. If the contract requires

the use of special trade contractors

(plumbing, painting, plastering, carpentry,

etc.), all such special trade construction

activities are considered a single activity and

classified as Base Housing Maintenance.

Since Base Housing Maintenance is only one

activity, two additional activities are required

for a contract to be classified as ‘‘Base

Maintenance.’’

14. NAICS 562910—Environmental

Remediation Services:

(a) For SBA assistance as a small business

concern in the industry of Environmental

Remediation Services, other than for

Government procurement, a concern must be

engaged primarily in furnishing a range of

services for the remediation of a

contaminated environment to an acceptable

condition including, but not limited to,

preliminary assessment, site inspection,

testing, remedial investigation, feasibility

studies, remedial design, containment,

remedial action, removal of contaminated

materials, storage of contaminated materials

and security and site closeouts. If one of such

activities accounts for 50 percent or more of

a concern’s total revenues, employees, or

other related factors, the concern’s primary

industry is that of the particular industry and

not the Environmental Remediation Services

Industry.

(b) For purposes of classifying a

Government procurement as Environmental

Remediation Services, the general purpose of

the procurement must be to restore a

contaminated environment and also the

procurement must be composed of activities

in three or more separate industries with

separate NAICS codes or, in some instances

(e.g., engineering), smaller sub-components

of NAICS codes with separate, distinct size

standards. These activities may include, but

are not limited to, separate activities in

industries such as: Heavy Construction;

Special Trade Construction; Engineering

Services; Architectural Services;

Management Services; Refuse Systems;

Sanitary Services, Not Elsewhere Classified;

Local Trucking Without Storage; Testing

Laboratories; and Commercial, Physical and

Biological Research. If any activity in the

procurement can be identified with a

separate NAICS code, or component of a code

with a separate distinct size standard, and

that industry accounts for 50 percent or more

of the value of the entire procurement, then

the proper size standard is the one for that

particular industry, and not the

Environmental Remediation Service size

standard.

Airworthiness Directives; British

Aerospace Jetstream Model 3201

Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This amendment adopts a

new airworthiness directive (AD) that

applies to British Aerospace Jetstream

Model 3201 airplanes. This AD requires

you to inspect the fuel quantity

indication system for damage to the

insulation of the wiring within the fuel

tanks, and repair or replace damaged

wiring. Damage is defined as corrosion

(indicated by a dark stain), cuts, or

nicks. This AD is the result of

mandatory continuing airworthiness

information (MCAI) issued by the

airworthiness authority for the United

Kingdom. The actions specified by this

AD are intended to detect damage to the

insulation of the wiring within the fuel

tanks of the fuel quantity indication

system, which could result in a

malfunction in the cockpit indicators

and/or electrical sparking inside the fuel

tank with consequent fire or explosion.

DATES: This AD becomes effective on

June 23, 2000.

The Director of the Federal Register

approved the incorporation by reference

of certain publications listed in the

regulation as of June 23, 2000.

ADDRESSES: You may get the service

information referenced in this AD from
