that appeared in the Federal Register on 

December 5, 2023, at 88 FR 84406, 

which issued final rules implementing 

the SCA, taking significant steps to

and related crimes. A subsequent rule

(i) Compliance date. Compliance with 

the provision in paragraph (f) of this

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

48 CFR Part 1252 

RIN 2105–AF22 

Solicitation Provisions and Contract 

Clauses 

AGENCY: Department of Transportation. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This final rule amends the 

Transportation Acquisition Regulation 

(TAR) to provide needed editorial 

changes. DOT is publishing a technical 

amendment to make a minor 

administrative correction to a TAR 

clause citation. 

DATES: This rule is effective on 

December 21, 2023. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. 

LaWanda Morton-Chunn, Procurement 

Analyst, Acquisition Policy, Oversight & 

Business Strategies (M–61), Office of the 

Senior Procurement Executive (OSPE), 

Department of Transportation, 1200 

New Jersey Avenue SE, Washington, DC 

20590, (202) 366–2267. This is not a 

toll-free telephone number. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The purpose of this rule is to make a 

minor administrative correction to the 

clause at 1252.239–92, Information and 

Communication Technology 

Accessibility Notice, paragraph (b). This 

revision corrects an erroneous reference 

to a separate TAR clause. 

Discussion and Analysis 

TAR part 1252, 1252.239–92, 

Information and Communication 

Technology Accessibility Notice, 

paragraph (b), is revised to correct a 

typographical error to a reference to 

another TAR clause. The reference in 

paragraph (b) to the clause at 1252.239– 

81, Information and Communication 

Technology Accessibility, is revised to 

reference the clause at 1252.239–93, 

Information and Communication 

Technology Accessibility. The clause at 

1252.239–81 is titled Cloud 

Identification and Authentication 

(Organizational Users) Multi-Factor 

Authentication, which is not the correct 

reference. The clause at 1252.239–93 is 

titled Information and Communication 

Technology Accessibility. The clause at 

1252.239–93 is the clause that 

paragraph (b) of 1252.239–92 intended 

to reference. 

Notice and Comment 

This rule makes administrative 

changes that do not require prior notice 

and an opportunity for comment or a 

delayed effective date, consistent with 

41 U.S.C. 1707, 48 CFR 1.301, and 48 

CFR 1.501–3. 

The statutes at 41 U.S.C. 1707(a) 

specifies a required comment period for 

procurement policies, regulations, 

procedures and forms. Specifically, a 

procurement policy, regulation, 

procedure, or form may not take effect 

until 60 days after it is published for 

public comment if it relates to the 

expenditure of funds and either (i) has 

a significant effect beyond the internal 

operating procedures of the agency 

issuing the action; or (ii) has a 

significant cost or administrative impact 

on contractors or offerors. An exception 

can be made if there are compelling 

circumstances for an earlier effective 

date. The statutes at 41 U.S.C. 1707(b) 

also requires agencies to publish 

proposed procurement regulations in 

the Federal Register for a comment 

period of at least 30 days unless the 

agency waives those requirements 

pursuant to 41 U.S.C. 1707(d). This
