## Abstract

This document adopts as a final rule an amendment to the regulations exempting certain contracts for commercial services meeting specific criteria from coverage under the McNamara-O'Hara Service Contract Act (SCA). The proposed regulation was issued based on a request by the Administrator for Federal Procurement Policy, Office of Federal Procurement Policy (OFPP), in a May 12, 1999, letter to the Secretary of Labor, representing that the requested exemptions were both necessary and proper in the public interest, and in accord with the remedial purpose of the SCA to protect prevailing labor standards. Amendments/modifications were made to the OFPP-requested exemptions based on the written comments submitted in response to the proposed rule.
