Office of Procurement and Property Management; Agriculture Acquisition Regulation, Labor Law Violations

Riepilogo

The Office of Procurement and Property Management (OPPM) of the Department of Agriculture (USDA) proposes to amend the Agriculture Acquisition Regulation (the "AGAR") to add a new clause at subpart 422.70 entitled "Labor Law Violations." In the final rule section of the Federal Register, the Agency is publishing this action as a direct final rule without prior proposal because OPPM views this as a non- controversial action and expects no adverse comments. If no adverse comments are received in response to the direct final rule, no further action will be taken on this proposed rule, and the action will become effective at the time specified in the direct final rule. If the Agency receives adverse comments, a timely document will be published withdrawing the direct final rule, and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this action.
