* I ............ Training to Prevent Human Trafficking For Certain Air Carriers ............................................................... 2019–017 Jones. 

* II ........... Certification of Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses ....................................................... 2022–009 Moore.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Summaries for each FAR rule follow. 

For the actual revisions and/or 

amendments made by these FAR rules, 

refer to the specific item numbers and 

subjects set forth in the documents 

following these item summaries. FAC 

2025–02 amends the FAR as follows: 

Item I—Training To Prevent Human 

Trafficking For Certain Air Carriers 

(FAR Case 2019–017) 

This final rule amends the FAR to 

implement section 111 of the Frederick 

Douglass Trafficking Victims Prevention 

and Protection Reauthorization Act of 

2018 (Pub. L. 115–425), enacted January 

8, 2019. Section 111 requires that 

domestic carriers who contract with the 

Federal Government to provide air 

transportation submit an annual report 

with certain information related to 

prevention of human trafficking to the 

Administrator of General Services, the 

Secretary of Transportation, the 

Secretary of Labor, the Administrator of 

the Transportation Security 

Administration, and the Commissioner 

of U.S. Customs and Border Protection. 

Section 111 does not apply to contracts 

awarded by the Department of Defense. 

This rule creates a new contract 

clause at FAR 52.247–69, Reporting 

Requirement for U.S.-Flag Air Carriers 

Regarding Training to Prevent Human 

Trafficking, to implement the statutory 

reporting requirement. Contracting 

officers will include this clause in 

solicitations and contracts for the 

transportation by air of passengers. The 

reporting requirement applies to U.S.- 

flag air carriers, including small 

business air carriers. The final rule is 

not expected to have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities within the 

meaning of the Regulatory Flexibility 

Act. 

Item II—Certification of ServiceDisabled Veteran-Owned Small 

Businesses (FAR Case 2022–009) 

This FAR rule adopts, without 

change, an interim rule that amended 

the FAR to implement the 

Governmentwide certification 

requirement for service-disabled 

veteran-owned small business 

(SDVOSB) concerns seeking sole-source 

and set-aside awards under the SDVOSB 

Program. Effective January 1, 2024, an 

SDVOSB concern must have either been 

certified by the Small Business 

Administration (SBA), or have both 

submitted an application for 

certification to SBA on or before 

December 31, 2023, and represented 

that it is an SDVOSB in the System for 

Award Management (SAM), in order to 

be eligible for sole-source or set-aside 

awards under the SDVOSB Program. 

This rule required that an SDVOSB 

concern update its status in SAM no 

later than two days after the date of a 

final determination that the concern 

does not meet the requirements of the 

status the concern claims to hold. This 

rule also provided new SDVOSB protest 

and appeal procedures. 

Item III—Technical Amendments 

Administrative changes are made at 

FAR 13.302–5, 25.101, 36.603, 49.601– 

2, 52.204–2, 52.204–7, 52.204–8, 

52.204–19, 52.212–5, 52.225–3, 52.225– 

4, and 52.225–18.
