Federal Acquisition Regulation; Reimbursement of Relocation Costs on a Lump-Sum Basis

Zusammenfassung

The Civilian Agency Acquisition Council and the Defense Acquisition Regulations Council (Councils) are sponsoring a public meeting to discuss revising FAR 31.205-35, Relocation costs, to permit contractors the option of claiming employee relocation costs based on actual costs or on an appropriate lump-sum basis. A notice requesting public comments on the matter was published in the Federal Register at 67 FR 65468, October 24, 2002. After reviewing the public comments that were submitted, the councils would like to explore further the views of interested parties. Copies of the nine public comments can be viewed or printed from http://www.arnet.gov/far/ProposedRules/. Should the Councils decide to draft a proposed rule, an additional 60-day public comment period will be provided.
