SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On September 24, 2018, at 83 FR 48257, VA

duplicative of the FAR. That rule (AQ04) is effective on October 24, 
2018, however on October 1, 2018 at 83 FR 49302 VA published a final 
rule (AP81) with instructions to revise the authority citation for part 
870 and remove Sec. Sec.  870.112 and 870.113 with an effective date of 
October 31, 2018.

amending part 870 in the final rule (AP81) published on October 1, 2018 
(83 FR 49302).
