                AGENCY: Office of Management and Budget.
                ACTION: Semiannual regulatory agenda.
                -----------------------------------------------------------------------
                SUMMARY: The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) is publishing its
                semiannual agenda of upcoming activities for Federal regulations, OMB
                Guidance, Office of Federal Procurement Policy (OFPP) Policy Letters,
                and Cost Accounting Standards (CAS) Board Cost Accounting Standards.
                 OMB Guidance and OFPP Policy Letters are published in accordance
                with OMB's internal procedures for implementing Executive Order 12866
                (58 FR 51735 (Oct. 4, 1993)). OMB policy guidelines are issued under
                authority derived from several sources, including: Subtitles I, II, and
                V of title 31, U.S. Code; Executive Order 11541; and other specific
                authority as cited. OMB Guidance and OFPP Policy Letters communicate
                guidance and instructions of a continuing nature to executive branch
                agencies. As such, most OMB Guidance and OFPP Policy Letters are not
                regulations. Nonetheless, because these issuances are typically of
                interest to the public, they are generally published in the Federal
                Register at both the proposed (for public comment) and final stages.
                For this reason, they are presented below in the standard format of
                ``pre-rule,'' ``proposed rule,'' and ``final rule'' stages.
                 CASB Cost Accounting Standards are issued under authority derived
                from 41 U.S.C. 1501 et seq. Cost Accounting Standards are rules
                governing the measurement, assignment, and allocation of costs to
                contracts entered into with the United States Government.
                 For purposes of this agenda, we have excluded directives that
                outline procedures to be followed in connection with the President's
                budget and legislative programs, as well as directives that affect only
                the internal functions, management, or personnel of Federal agencies.
                FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: See the agency contact person listed
                for each entry in the agenda, c/o Office of Management and Budget,
                Washington, DC 20503. On the overall agenda, contact Laura Dennehy,

                338. Federal Acquisition Security Council Implementing Regulation
                 E.O. 13771 Designation: Other.
                 Legal Authority: Pub. L. 115-390 sec. 202(c)
                 Abstract: This interim final rule will implement subchapter III of
                chapter 13 of title 41, United States Code. Subchapter III creates the
                Federal Acquisition Security Council, and identifies a number of
                functions to be performed by the Council. The FASC is chaired by a
                designated OMB Senior-Level official, and Public Law 115-390 requires
                that the FASC publish an interim final rule to implement these
                functions.

                 E.O. 13771 Designation: Not subject to, not significant.
                 Legal Authority: 31 U.S.C. 503
                 Abstract: The Office of Management and Budget will pursue proposed
                rulemaking to revise parts of title 2 of the Code of Federal
                Regulations (2 CFR) Subtitle A--OMB Guidance for Grants and Agreements
                (Guidance). The Guidance is scheduled for review every five years after
                December 26, 2013, per 2 CFR (200.109 Review date). The intent of the
                proposed revisions are to address burden reduction for recipients, fix
                inconsistent terminology, resolve conflict within areas of 2 CFR,
                incorporate the President's Management Agenda, and address statutes
                enacted since the final guidance was issued.
