Technical Amendments to Acquisition Regulation; Removal of Outdated or Unnecessary Coverage: Correction of Effective Date Under Congressional Review Act (CRA)

On October 24, 1996 (61 FR 55118), the Environmental Protection Agency published in the Federal Register a final rule concerning the removal from EPA Acquisition Regulations of outdated or unnecessary coverage on Exchange of Acquisiton Information, Past Performance, Advisory and Assistance Services, and Policies and Procedures on Value Engineering. This rule established an effective date of October 24, 1996. This document corrects the effective date of the rule to December 30, 1997 to be consistent with sections 801 and 808 of the Congressional Review Act (CRA), enacted as part of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act.
