On
July 21, 2008, the Department of Defense (DoD)
issued an interim rule in the
Federal Register amending the
Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation
Supplement (DFARS) to address requirements for
complying with export control laws and
regulations when performing DoD contracts. The
rule recognizes contractor responsibilities to
comply with existing Department of Commerce and
Department of State regulations.
DoD published a proposed rule at 70 Fed. Reg. 39,976 on July 12, 2005, to address requirements for preventing unauthorized disclosure of export-controlled information and technology under DoD contracts. In consideration of the public comments received, DoD published a second proposed rule at 71 Fed. Reg. 46,434. In the Federal Register publication today, DoD sets out the changes from the interim rule and addresses the public comments received from 167 persons or organizations in response to the second proposed rule.
