SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Background

Executive Order 12933 was signed October 20, 1994, by President
Clinton and published in the Federal Register on October 24, 1994. To
obtain public comment and assist in development of implementing
regulations, the Department of Labor (DOL) invited comment through a
notice of proposed rulemaking in the Federal Register on July 18, 1995
(60 FR 36756). The final DOL rule was published in the Federal Register
on May 22, 1997 (62 FR 28175). An interim FAR rule implementing DOL's
rule was published under FAR case 94-610 (FAC 97-01, 62 FR 44802,
August 22, 1997). During consideration of the public comments submitted
in response to the interim rule, the Civilian Agency Acquisition
Council and the Defense Acquisition Regulations Council identified this
additional issue and proposed change. The councils consider this
additional change significant enough to warrant additional public
comments.
This rule proposes to add the clause title, 52.222-50,
Nondisplacement of Qualified Workers, at 52.212-5(c).
This regulatory action was not subject to Office of Management and
Budget review under Executive Order 12866, dated September 30, 1993,
and is not a major rule under 5 U.S.C. 804.

B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
dditional change significant enough to warrant additional public
comments.
This rule proposes to add the clause title, 52.222-50,
Nondisplacement of Qualified Workers, at 52.212-5(c).
This regulatory action was not subject to Office of Management and
Budget review under Executive Order 12866, dated September 30, 1993,
and is not a major rule under 5 U.S.C. 804.

B. Regulatory Flexibility Act

This proposed 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, 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq., because the rule
only identifies the FAR clause at 52.222-50, Nondisplacement of
Qualified Workers as appropriate for incorporation by reference in
certain service contracts when determined so by the contracting
officer. Therefore, an Initial Regulatory Flexibility Analysis has not
been performed. Comments from small entities concerning the affected
FAR subpart will be considered in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 610 of the
Act. Such comments must be submitted separately and should cite 5
U.S.C. 601, et seq. (FAR case 99-600), in correspondence.

C. Paperwork Reduction Act

This proposed rule will not impose any additional paperwork burdens
beyond the information collection and recordkeeping requirements under
sections 9.6(c), 9.9(b), and 9.11 of the Department of Labor
regulations, 29 CFR part 9, and approved under Office of Management and
Budget Control No. 1215-0190.
