A. Background
NASA published an interim rule in the Federal Register at 66 FR 36490 on July 12, 2001, revising NFS section 1804.470 and the clause at 1852.204-76, Security Requirements for Unclassified Information Technology Resources. These sections address security requirements for unclassified IT resources. The action implemented The Computer Security Act of 1987 and Appendix III of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular No. A-130, Security of Federal Automated Information Resources, which require adequate security be provided for all Agency information collected, processed, transmitted, stored, or disseminated. NFS section 1804.470 contains the requirement for all NASA contractors and subcontractors to comply with Federal and NASA policies in safeguarding unclassified NASA data held via information technology (IT).
Public comments were received from one source. The comments were considered in developing this final rule.
Changes are made in this final rule to section 1804.470-1, Scope, to reference Federal policies that are implemented through NASA's Procedures and Guidelines (NPG) 2810.1, Security of Information Technology, and amend paragraph (d)(3)(i) of the clause at 1852.204-76 to remove the exemption of certain information contained in Standard Form 85P, Questionnaire for Public Trust Positions.
NASA understands that the FAR Council is working with the OMB Start Printed Page 48815 Committee on Executive Branch Information Systems Security under the President's Critical Infrastructure Protection Board on the development of a government-wide IT security clause. The purpose of this work is to ensure that IT security requirements are included in all applicable Federal government contracts. Upon completion of this government-wide effort, NASA will modify its rule, as may be necessary, to ensure consistency with the FAR coverage.
This is not a significant regulatory action, and therefore, was not subject to review under Section 6(b) of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, dated September 30, 1993. This rule is not a major rule under 5 U.S.C. 804
B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
NASA certifies that this 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 this rule only clarifies existing requirements and does not impose any new requirements.
C. Paperwork Reduction Act
This rule clarifies existing requirements that were previously approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under OMB Control No. 2700-0098.
