[[Page 62191]]
A. Background
NASA is in the process of implementing a new Agency-wide Integrated
Financial Management System. This implementation requires a minor
change to the number of digits and sequence of characters used in the
contract identification number. This final rule makes these
administrative changes to the contract numbering scheme used for NASA
contracts.
B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
This final rule does not constitute a significant revision within
the meaning of FAR 1.501 and Public Law 98-577, and publication for
public comment is not required. However, NASA will consider comments
from small entities concerning the affected NFS Part 1804 in accordance
with 5 U.S.C. 610.
C. Paperwork Reduction Act
The Paperwork Reduction Act does not apply because the changes do
not impose recordkeeping or information collection requirements which
require the approval of the Office of Management and Budget under 44
U.S.C. 3501, et seq.
