## Abstract

This final rule amends the USDA regulations that implement Executive Order (E.O.) 12549, ``Debarment and Suspension.'' E.O. 12549 required executive departments and agencies to issue regulations, consistent with guidelines issued by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), to establish governmentwide effect for an agency's nonprocurement debarment and suspension actions. These changes will enhance USDA participation in the governmentwide nonprocurement debarment and suspension system by making appropriate modifications to the coverage of the regulations and clarifying the relationship of the regulations to other USDA procedures for establishing participant ineligibility for specific programs.
