Correction

    The corrected third sentence of paragraph (b)(4) of section 31.205-
13 should read as follows:


31.205-13  Employee morale, health, welfare, food service, and 
dormitory costs and credits.

* * * * *
    (b) * * *
    (4) * * * A loss may be allowed, however, to the extent that the 
contractor can demonstrate that unusual circumstances exist (e.g., (i) 
where the contractor must provide food or dormitory services at remote 
locations where adequate commercial facilities are not reasonably 
available, or (ii) where charged but unproductive labor costs would be 
excessive but for the services provided or where cessation or reduction 
of food or dormitory operations will not otherwise yield net cost 
savings) such that even with efficient management, operating the 
services on a break-even basis would require charging inordinately high 
prices, or prices or rates higher than those charged by commercial 
establishments offering the same services in the same geographical 
areas. * * *

    Dated: February 1, 1995.

Deputy Project Manager for the Implementation of the Federal 
Acquisition Streamlining Act of 1974.
