FAR Secretariat; Federal Acquisition Regulation Reissue

AGENCY: General Services Administration (GSA), Department of Defense 
(DOD), and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

ACTION: Correction to Notice of Reissue of the Federal Acquisition 
Regulations.

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

    This notice supersedes the previous reissue information published 
in the Federal Register at 69 FR 13259, March 19, 1997.

TO: All Federal Departments and Agencies
SUBJECT: Procedure for Ordering the 1997 Edition of the Federal 
Acquisition Regulation through the Government Printing Office; 
CORRECTION

    The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 1997 Reissue will be 
distributed in May 1997. The 1990 edition of the FAR will then be 
obsolete. A reissue is a revised basic publication, i.e., a new edition 
with Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) numbers deleted and pages 
renumbered.
    To obtain copies of the reissue, please have your printing office 
prepare a printing and binding requisition, Standard Form 1, and 
deliver to the Government Printing Office (GPO) by April 11, 1997. On 
your requisition, state Federal Acquisition Regulation, 1997 Reissue, 
in two volumes. Your order will ride GSA Requisition Number 7-89025, 
GPO Jacket Number 424-496. All production costs will be pro-rated to 
participating Federal departments and agencies. The cost is 
approximately $10 per set.
    To maintain an up-to-date FAR, subscribers need the reissue 
document and the FAC's that update it. To obtain these FAC's, Federal 
subscribers should submit a separate open requisition annually to GPO 
through their agency printing offices. The cost of an average FAC is 75 
cents when the requisition rides GSA's requisition for this material.
    Those agencies who do not submit their requirement by April 11, 
1997, will have to purchase their copies from the Superintendent of 
Documents at a significantly increased cost per copy. Remember, the FAR 
is a valuable tool for contracting personnel and many of them may want 
to maintain their own copy. Printing offices may want to order extra 
stock to accommodate new employees requests.
    If you have any questions, please call the Superintendent of 
Documents Subscription Desk at (202) 512-1806.

    Dated: March 25, 1997.
Edward C. Loeb,
Director, Federal Acquisition Policy Division.
