Now that SBA has officially launched the program, has received over two thousand applications for HUBZone certification, and has certified concerns into the program, SBA believes that it should make the following four regulatory amendments and clarifications to improve the administration and operation of the HUBZone program. First, SBA proposes to amend the provisions governing the application of the HUBZone program to various government departments and agencies. It proposes to add three federal agencies to the current list of agencies that are affected directly by the HUBZone program and to clarify that the HUBZone program does not apply to contracts awarded by state and local governments. Second, SBA proposes to amend the definition of the term "principal office" to accommodate those concerns whose industries require employees to perform their work at various job sites. Third, SBA proposes to eliminate the existing program eligibility restrictions on allowable affiliations of HUBZone small business concerns, since those requirements have proven to be unduly burdensome on otherwise eligible concerns. Finally, SBA proposes to ease the program eligibility requirements and procurement restrictions concerning qualified HUBZone small business concerns that operate as non-manufacturers because those requirements are unnecessary and overly restrictive. 65 FR 58963 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/FR-2000-10-03/00-25291 00-25291 fr03oc00-16 8025-01-P https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/FR-2000-10-03/00-25291 https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-10-03/html/00-25291.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-10-03/pdf/00-25291.pdf Administrative Practice and Procedure Government Procurement Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements Small Businesses 3 p. 58963 58965 65 FR 58963 Title 13 Part 126 13 CFR Part 126 HUBZone Program; Federal Register Vol. 65, Issue PRORULE 00-25291 SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION 2000-11-02 8025-01-P 00-25291 Proposed rule.
