Rules of Practice Before the Board of Contract Appeals

On September 13, 1995, the Postal Service published in the Federal Register (60 FR 47514-47515) for public comment a proposed rule to revise the rules of practice of the Postal Service Board of Contract Appeals (Board). The Postal Service is now issuing a final rule that revises certain rules of practice of the Postal Service Board. These revisions implement provisions of the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act of 1994 (Pub. L. 103-355) (FASA), which amended sections 8(f) and 9(a) of the Contract Disputes Act of 1978 (41 U.S.C. 601-613), under which the Board adjudicates contract disputes. These revisions increase the maximum amount that may be in dispute for appeals to qualify for consideration under the small claims (expedited) and accelerated procedures of boards of contract appeals. Minor editorial revisions and corrections of typographical errors are also included in this final rule.
