-----------------------------------------------------------------------

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. James Tsujimoto, Program Analyst, 
at 202-208-3585, or via email at [email protected] for 
clarification of content. For information pertaining to status or 
publication schedules, contact the Regulatory Secretariat at 202-501-

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    GSA published a proposed rule with a request for public comments in 
the Federal Register at 80 FR 6037 on February 4, 2015, to amend the 
GSAR to delete GSAR clause 552.211-93, Unique Item Identification 
(UID), and provide other conforming changes. No public comments were 
received on the proposed rule.

II. Discussion and Analysis

    There were no comments received in response to the proposed rule by 
its closing date of April 6, 2015. Therefore, there are no changes made 
in the proposed rule.

III. Executive Orders 12866 and 13563

    Executive Orders (E.O.s) 12866 and 13563 direct agencies to assess 
all costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if 
regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize 
net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public 
health and safety effects, distributive impacts, and equity). E.O. 
13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and benefits, 
of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting flexibility. 
This is not a significant regulatory action and, therefore, was not 
subject to review under Section 6(b) of E.O. 12866, Regulatory Planning 
and Review, dated September 30, 1993. This rule is not a major rule 
under 5 U.S.C. 804.

IV. Regulatory Flexibility Act

    The General Services Administration certifies that this final rule 
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of 
small entities within the meaning of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 
U.S.C. 601, et seq., because the deletion of the clause will not 
substantively change the reporting, recordkeeping, or compliance 
requirements for contractors.

V. Paperwork Reduction Act

    The final rule does not contain any information collection 
requirements that require the approval of the Office of Management and 
Budget under the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. chapter 35).
