SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Purpose 

Federal construction contractors may 

be required to submit schedules, in the 

form of a progress chart, showing the 

order in which the Contractor proposes 

to perform the work. In accordance with 

FAR 52.236–15, Schedules for 

Construction Contracts, the Contractor 

shall, within five days after work 

commences on the contract or another 

period of time determined by the 

contracting officer, prepare and submit 

to the contracting officer for approval 

three copies of a practicable schedule 

showing the order in which the 

Contractor proposes to perform the 

work, and the dates on which the 

Contractor contemplates starting and 

completing the several salient features 

of the work (including acquiring 

materials, plants, and equipment). This 

information is used to monitor progress 

under a Federal construction contract 

when other management approaches for 

ensuring adequate progress are not used. 

If the Contractor fails to submit a 

schedule within the time prescribes, the 

Contracting Officer may withhold 

approval of progress payments until the 

Contractor submits the required 

schedule.

Patient Safety Organizations: 

Voluntary Relinquishment From Verge 

Patient Safety Organization 

AGENCY: Agency for Healthcare Research 

and Quality (AHRQ), Department of 

Health and Human Services (HHS). 

ACTION: Notice of delisting. 

SUMMARY: The Patient Safety and 

Quality Improvement Act of 2005, 42 

U.S.C. 299b–21 to b–26, (Patient Safety 

Act) and the related Patient Safety and 

Quality Improvement Final Rule, 42 

CFR part 3 (Patient Safety Rule), 

published in the Federal Register on 

November 21, 2008, (73 FR 70732– 

70814), provide for the formation of 

Patient Safety Organizations (PSOs), 

which collect, aggregate, and analyze 

confidential information regarding the 

quality and safety of health care 

delivery. The Patient Safety Rule 

authorizes AHRQ, on behalf of the 

Secretary of HHS, to list as a PSO an 

entity that attests that it meets the 

statutory and regulatory requirements 

for listing. A PSO can be ‘‘delisted’’ by 

the Secretary if it is found to no longer 

meet the requirements of the Patient 

Safety Act and Patient Safety Rule, 

when a PSO chooses to voluntarily 

relinquish its status as a PSO for any 

reason, or when a PSO’s listing expires. 

AHRQ has accepted a notification of 

voluntary relinquishment from Verge 

Patient Safety Organization of its status 

as a PSO, and has delisted the PSO 

accordingly. 

DATES: The directories for both listed 

and delisted PSOs are ongoing and 

reviewed weekly by AHRQ. The 

delisting was effective at 12:00 Midnight 

ET (2400) on February 2, 2016. 

ADDRESSES: Both directories can be 

accessed electronically at the following 

HHS Web site: http://

www.pso.AHRQ.gov/listed.
