The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal
Register documents. Each document posted on the site includes a link to the

The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable
regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of
establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned
publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that
the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with
the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for
legal research should verify their results against an official edition of
the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML
rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not
provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.

Defense Acquisition Regulations System

1. 48 CFR Parts 204, 208, 209, 211, 212, 213, 216, 225, 227, 232, 236, 241, 246, and 252
2. [Docket DARS-2022-0001]

AGENCY:

Defense Acquisition Regulations System, Department of Defense (DoD).

ACTION:

Final rule.

SUMMARY:

DoD is making technical amendments to the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to provide needed editorial changes.

DATES:

Effective March 17, 2022.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Ms. Jennifer D. Johnson, telephone 571-372-6100.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

This final rule makes the following changes:

1. Updates office designations and a hyperlink at DFARS 204.604 and 232.1004.

2. Updates hyperlinks at: DFARS 204.7302, 208.602-70, 213.301, 225.7003-2, 252.204-7019, 252.204-7020, 252.211-7003, and 252.211-7007.

3. Removes obsolete text at DFARS 209.104-1, paragraph (g)(i). The final rule for DFARS Case 2014-D014, published at 79 FR 73488, revised section 209.104-1, paragraph (g)(i), because the coverage was relocated to DFARS subpart 225.7. Several subordinate paragraphs to paragraph (g)(i) that should have been removed at ( printed page 15817) that time were inadvertently retained in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). This technical amendment corrects that error and removes the obsolete text at DFARS 209.104-1, paragraphs (g)(i)(1) and (2), from the eCFR.

4. Reinstates DFARS subpart 211.70 and section 211.7001, which points to procedures provided in DFARS Procedures, Guidance, and Information (PGI) 211.7001.

5. DFARS 212.207(b)(i), adds a missing parenthesis.

6. DFARS 216.402-2(2)(ii), corrects a typographical error in the electronic Code of Federal Regulations.

7. DFARS 225.7700(e), corrects a typographical error in a statutory section reference.

8. DFARS 241.102(b)(7)(C), updates a statutory reference pursuant to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2006 (section 2851, Pub. L. 109-364).

9. DFARS 246.870-2, removes obsolete language. The final rule was published at 81 FR 72738 to amend DFARS 246.870-2(a)(2) introductory text by removing “(b)(3)(ii) through (b)(3)(iv)” and adding “(b)(3)(ii)” in its place, but DFARS 204.870-2 was referenced instead of DFARS 246.870-2. According to a CFR Editorial Note, the change is not reflected in the Code of Federal Regulations due to inaccurate amendatory instruction. This rule provides the correct amendatory instruction.

10. DFARS 252.225-7013, updates an updated mailing address at paragraph (e)(2)(iv)(A).

11. Updates statutory redesignations made by the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 (Pub. L. 115-232):

• Section 808(b)(12) redesignates 10 U.S.C. 7317 as 10 U.S.C. 8687 at DFARS 212.301, 227.7100, 227.7102-1, 227.7103-1, 252.227-7013, and 252.227-7015; and
• Section 808(d) redesignates 10 U.S.C. 4540 as 10 U.S.C. 7540 and section 807(d)(1) redesignates 10 U.S.C. 7212 as 10 U.S.C. 8612 at DFARS 236.606-70.

• Government procurement Jennifer D. Johnson,

Editor/Publisher, Defense Acquisition Regulations System.

Therefore, 48 CFR parts 204, 208, 209, 211, 212, 213, 216, 225, 227, 232, 236, 241, 246, and 252 are amended as follows:
