        <RULE_TITLE>Homeland Security Acquisition Regulation; Restrictions on Foreign Acquisition </RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, Public Law 111-5, section 604 (the Act), contains restrictions on the acquisition of certain foreign textile products on DHS contract actions entered into on or after August 16, 2009, with funds made available to DHS appropriated on or before February 17, 2009, the date of the Act.  The Act requires that these funds may not be used for the procurement of certain textile products that are not grown, reprocessed, reused or produced in the United States.  In order to implement the statutory requirement, DHS is amending the Homeland Security Acquisition Regulation to add implementing policy.   The rule revises 48 CFR part 3025, Foreign Acquisitions, and part 3052, Solicitation Provisions and Contract Clauses, to limit acquisition of covered items under certain DHS acquisitions above the simplified acquisition threshold, unless DHS determines that such items qualify under one of the exceptions provided in the Act.]]></ABSTRACT>
