SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Summaries for each FAR rule follow. For the actual revisions and/or amendments made by these FAR cases, refer to the specific item numbers and subjects set forth in the documents following these item summaries. FAC 2005-73 amends the FAR as specified below:
Item I--Positive Law Codification of Title 41 (FAR Case 2011-018)
This final rule amends the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to conform references throughout the FAR to the new Positive Law Codification of Title 41, United States Code, ``Public Contracts'' and other conforming changes. The new codification of Title 41 was enacted on January 4, 2011, under Public Law 111-350. Additionally, the rule completes the implementation of the recodification of Title 40. The codifications reorganized and renumbered the statutes, but did not change the meaning or legal effect.
A table at FAR 1.110 provides the popular names of Acts, the present statutory citation, and the new titles of the statutes. For example the ``Service Contract Act of 1965'' is now the ``Service Contract Labor Standards statute''.
The rule does not have a significant effect beyond the internal operating procedures of the Government, and consequently does not have a significant cost or administrative impact on entities either large or small.
Item II--Technical Amendments
Editorial changes are made at FAR 9.105-2, 9.203, 11.201, 52.203-
17, 52.208-8, 52.211-2, and 52.212-1.
