The Stevenson-Wydler Technology Innovation Act of 1980 ( 15 U.S.C. 3701 et seq.) is amended by inserting after section 15 the following: Each Federal agency may permit the director of any of its Government-operated Federal laboratories to enter into such other transactions as may be necessary in the conduct of the work of the Federal laboratory and on such terms as the director of the Federal laboratory considers appropriate, in furtherance of the purposes of this Act. The Federal agency may protect from disclosure, for up to 12 years after the date on which the information is developed, any information developed pursuant to a transaction under this section that would be protected from disclosure under section 552(b)(4) of title 5, United States Code, if obtained from a person other than a Federal agency.
This authority only pertains to Federal agencies that do not have agency-specific authorities for other transactions elsewhere in statute. A Federal laboratory using the authorities granted in subsection
(a)may only enter into such other transactions when— a warranted contracting officer determines that use of other authority of the Federal agency would be insufficient to achieve the purposes of this Act; and use of such other transaction is approved by the Federal agency. .
