        <RULE_TITLE>General Services Administration Acquisition Regulation (GSAR) Case 2008-G515; Rewrite of GSAR Part 549; Termination of Contracts</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The General Services Administration (GSA) is proposing to amend the General Services Acquisition Regulation (GSAR) to delete two outdated clauses and the prescriptions for the two clauses. This proposed rule is a result of the General Services Administration Acquisition Manual (GSAM) Rewrite Initiative undertaken by GSA to revise the GSAM to maintain consistency with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR)and to implement streamlined and innovative acquisition procedures that contractors, offerors, and GSA contracting personnel can use when entering into and administering contractual relationships. The GSAM incorporates the GSAR as well as internal agency acquisition policy. This proposed rule revises GSAR part 549 by deleting the prescriptive language at section 549.502 for two outdated clauses. The clause at 552.249-70, Termination for Convenience of the Government (Fixed Price)(Short Form), and the clause at 552.249-71, Submission of Termination Liability Schedule, are being deleted. These are two GSA-unique clauses for acquisition and maintenance of telephone systems funded through the Information Technology (IT) Fund. This fund no longer exists. These clauses are obsolete.]]></ABSTRACT>
