Title: FAR Case 2008-003, Public Disclosure of Justification and Approval Documents for Noncompetitive Contracts--Section 844 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 
Abstract: The Civilian Agency Acquisition Council and the Defense Acquisition Regulations Council (Councils) have agreed on an interim rule amending the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to implement section 844 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008, "Public Disclosure of Justification and Approval Documents for Noncompetitive Contracts" (FY08 NDAA). Section 844 of the FY08 NDAA stipulates the requirements regarding the public availability of justification and approval documents after the award of Federal contracts, except for information exempt from public disclosure. This is a significant regulatory action and, therefore, was subject to review under section 6(b) of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, dated September 30, 1993. This rule is not a major rule under 5 U.S.C. 804.
