Title: Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Regulation; General Update 
Abstract: This rule would revise the Department's regulations for the disadvantaged business enterprise program to clarify regulatory provisions and revise program elements in light of experience in administering the program since 1980 and the Administration's review of affirmative action programs. The SNPRM also includes proposed amendments to the airport concession portion of the DBE program on which a separate NPRM was issued 10/6/93 under RIN 2105-AB99, Participation by Disadvantaged Business Enterprises in Airport Concessions, (58 FR 52050). This action is significant because of substantial public interest.
