(703)602-0350. Please cite DFARS Case 2001-D001. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A. Background This final rule removes the clauses at DFARS 252.243-7000, Engineering Change Proposals, and 252.248-7000, Preparation of Value Engineering Change Proposals, and the corresponding clause prescriptions at DFARS 243.205-70 and 248.270. DoD used these clauses to require submission of engineering change proposals in the format prescribed by MIL-STD-973, Configuration Management. MIS-STD-973 was cancelled without replacement on September 20, 2000. Therefore, this final rule removes the clauses that were based on the requirements of MIL-STD-973. General policy regarding engineering change proposals is removed from DFARS 243.205-70 to a more appropriate location at 243.204-71. This rule was not subject to Office of Management and Budget review under Executive Order 12866, dated September 30, 1993. B. Regulatory Flexibility Act This final rule does not constitute a significant revision within the meaning of FAR 1.501 and Public Law 98-577 and publication for public comment is not required. However, DoD will consider comments from small entities concerning the affected DFARS subparts in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 610. Such comments should cite DFARS Case 2001-D001. C. Paperwork Reduction Act The Paperwork Reduction Act does not apply because the rule does not impose any information collection requirements that require the approval of the Office of Management and Budget under 44 U.S.C. 3501, *et seq.* List of Subjects in 48 CFR Parts 243, 248, and 252 Government procurement.
