Transportation Department,
The Department of Transportation is reissuing the Transportation Acquisition Regulation (TAR). This interim final rule reflects changes made to implement and/or supplement the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). The TAR has been substantially revised to update references to obsolete policies, procedures and organizations; incorporate electronic links to references such as provisions to the FAR, U.S. Codes, the Code of Federal Regulations; and adopt by reference Office of Federal Procurement Policy Letters and Executive orders. The reissued TAR eliminates coverage that is unnecessary or duplicates the FAR or other directives. Only coverage that is suitable and necessary will be retained in the regulation. These efforts will create a 2004 edition of the TAR that is consistent with the 2001 edition of the FAR. The 2004 edition of the TAR will replace the 1994 edition.
