Abstract: The Civilian Agency Acquisition Council and the Defense

Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to ensure that the FAR reflects 
the Small Business Administration's (SBA) interpretation of the Small 
Business Act and SBA regulations with regard to the relationship among

subject to review under section 6(b) of Executive Order 12866,

not a major rule under 5 U.S.C. 804.
