implementation is secure. The

responsible authority in each agency or

department shall assure that an overall

implementation provides an acceptable

level of security. This standard will be

reviewed every five years in order to

assess its adequacy.

Waiver Procedure: Under certain

exceptional circumstances, the heads of

Federal departments and agencies may

approve waivers to Federal Information

Processing Standards (FIPS). The head

of such agency may redelegate such

authority only to a senior official

designated pursuant to section 3506(b)

of title 44, United States Code. Waiver

will be granted only when:

a. Compliance with a standard would

adversely affect the accomplishment of

the mission of an operator of a Federal

computer system; or

b. Compliance with a standard would

cause a major adverse financial impact

on the operator which is not offset by

Governmentwide savings.

Agency heads may act upon a written

waiver request containing the

information detailed above. Agency

heads may also act without a written

waiver request when they determine

that conditions for meeting the standard

cannot be met. Agency heads may

approve waivers only by a written

decision which explains the basis on

which the agency head made the

required finding(s). A copy of each

decision, with procurement sensitive or

classified portions clearly identified,

shall be sent to: National Institute of

Standards and Technology; ATTN: FIPS

Waiver Decisions, Technology Building,

Room B–154, Gaithersburg, MD 20899.

In addition, notice of each waiver

granted and each delegation of authority

to approve waivers shall be sent

promptly to the Committee on

Government Operations of the House of

Representatives and the Committee on

Governmental Affairs of the Senate and

shall be published promptly in the

Federal Register.

When the determination on a waiver

applies to the procurement of

equipment and/or services, a notice of

the waiver determination must be

published in the Commerce Business

Daily as a part of the notice of

solicitation for offers of an acquisition

or, if the waiver determination is made

after that notice is published, by

amendment to such notice.

A copy of the waiver, any supporting

documents, the document approving the

waiver and any accompanying

documents, with such deletion as the

agency is authorized and decides to

make under 5 United States Code

Section 552(b), shall be part of the

procurement documentation and

retained by the agency.
