This site displays a prototype of a “Web 2.0” version of the daily
Federal Register. It is not an official legal edition of the Federal
Register, and does not replace the official print version or the official
electronic version on GPO’s govinfo.gov.
The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal
Register documents. Each document posted on the site includes a link to the
corresponding official PDF file on govinfo.gov. This prototype edition of the
daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov will remain an unofficial
informational resource until the Administrative Committee of the Federal
Register (ACFR) issues a regulation granting it official legal status.
For complete information about, and access to, our official publications
and services, go to

on NARA's archives.gov.
The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable
regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of
establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned
publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that
the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with
the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for
legal research should verify their results against an official edition of
the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML
rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not
provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.

AGENCY:
Office of Governmentwide Policy, General Services Administration.
ACTION:
Notice.
SUMMARY:
This notice replaces the notice VSI-Notice 2011-01; Notice Pursuant to Executive Order 12600 of Receipt of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) Requests for Access to the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) Data, published on May 16, 2011. It provides submitters notice pursuant to Executive Order 12600 that the General Services Administration, Office of Governmentwide Policy, Acquisition Systems Division (ASD) has received several FOIA requests for certain data elements within the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database. This notice describes each data element contained in CCR and its exemption status under FOIA. The non-exempt data elements are packaged in a monthly CCR FOIA extract available on Acquisition.gov (
http://www.acquisition.gov). The exempt data elements are not made public as part of the CCR FOIA extract.
However, certain data elements that are exempt for CCR FOIA requests may be displayed publicly in other Federal systems after they are associated with a Federal award as required by law. For instance, CCR data elements 250-254 address Executive Compensation as required under section 2 of the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 (Pub. L. 109-282), as amended by section 6202 of the Government Funding Transparency Act of 2008 (Pub. L. 110-252). While collected in CCR as part of the registrant's profile, the Executive Compensation responses are not displayed until they are associated with an eligible Federal award at USAspending.gov (
http://www.usaspending.gov), nor are they releasable under CCR FOIA prior to association with an eligible Federal award and subsequent display on USAspending.gov. In addition, CCR data elements 255-260 address Proceedings information in accordance with FAR clause 52.209-7 (version dated January 2011). While collected in CCR as part of the registrant's profile (in accordance with FAR 52.209-7(d)), the Proceedings information is only displayed in association with a record in the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS) and is not releasable under CCR FOIA.
The following information applies to CCR data fields 255 through 260, dealing with the Proceedings section of the CCR registration, which are marked with “*”:
Any information entered in data fields 255 to 260 before April 15, 2011, will be handled in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act procedures at 5 U.S.C 552. Information posted on or after April 15, 2011, will be available to the public through FAPIIS, as required by Section 3010 of Public Law 111-212 (see 41 U.S.C. 417b, as recodified, 41 U.S.C. 2313) and in accordance with FAR clause 52.209-9 (version dated January 2011).
Federal contractors must not post information to data fields 255 to 260 under former FAR clause 52.209-8 (version dated April 2010) on or after April 15, 2011. Any contractors with a contract containing clause 52.209-8 (version dated April 2010) that requires update of information on or after April 15, 2011, should contact their contracting officer immediately to discuss a modification. Contracting officers are required to bilaterally modify existing contracts (including indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity contracts) that contain the FAR clause 52.209-8 (version dated April 2010) if a six-month update is due on or after April 15, 2011. The modification shall replace FAR clause 52.209-8 (version dated April 2010) with the new FAR clause 52.209-9 (version dated January 2011).
