4/12/05 Dispatch: Defense FAR Supplement - Other Socioeconomic Programs
SUBJECT: Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS); Other Socioeconomic Programs
SOURCE: Federal Register, April 12, 2005, Vol. 70, No. 69, page 19038
SYNOPSIS: This proposed rule would amend DFARS Part 226, Other Socioeconomic Programs, to update text related to socioeconomic considerations in DOD contracting.
ADDRESSES: Respondents may submit comments directly on the Federal eRulemaking Portal at http://www.regulations.gov; on the web site at http://emissary.acq.osd.mil/dar/dfars.nsf/pubcomm; by e-mail to: dfars@acq.osd.mil; by fax to 703-602-0350; by mail to Defense Acquisition Regulations Council, Attn: Debbie Tronic, OUSD(AT&L)DP(DAR), IMD 3C132, 3062 Defense Pentagon, Washington, DC 20301-3062; or by courier/hand to Defense Acquisition Regulations Council, Crystal Square 4, Suite 200A, 241 18th Street, Arlington, VA 22202-3402. Cite "DFARS Case 2003-D029" when making comments on this proposed rule.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposed rule is a result of the DFARS Transformation initiative. It would make the following changes to DFARS Part 226:
DFARS 226.103, Procedures, which contains internal DOD procedures for funding of incentive payments to contractors under the Indian incentive program, would be removed and relocated to PGI 226.103, Procedures. A cross-reference to PGI 226.103 would be substituted for the removed text.
DFARS Subpart 226.70, Historically Black Colleges and Universities and Minority Institutions, would be redesignated as DFARS Subpart 226.3 to be consistent with the location of the corresponding Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) policy. While the relocated text would be substantially unchanged, information on contract and subcontract goals for historically black colleges and universities and minority institutions (HBCU/MI) at DFARS 226.7000, Scope of Subpart, and information on HBCU/MI infrastructure assistance at DFARS 226.7002, General Policy, would be deleted because they are considered unnecessary.
DFARS Subpart 226.72, Base Closures and Realignments, would be deleted because it duplicates text found elsewhere in the DFARS, specifically DFARS Subpart 222.71, Right of First Refusal of Employment (rights of government employees who are adversely affected by closure of an installation), DFARS Subpart 226.71, Preference for Local and Small Businesses (qualified businesses located in the vicinity of the installation and small businesses may be given preference), and DFARS 237.74, Services at Installations Being Closed (DOD may contract with local governments for police, fire protection, airfield operations, and other community services at installations being closed).
