<body>
<p>The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing a comprehensive revision of its Acquisition Regulation in order to update and streamline the policies, procedures, provisions and clauses that are applicable to its contracts.&nbsp; This rulemaking proposes to eliminate coverage that is obsolete or that unnecessarily duplicates the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and retain only that coverage which either implements or supplements the FAR for the award and administration of the DOE's contracts. The rule proposes revised language that will promote the uniform application of DOE's contract award and administration policies.&nbsp;</p>
