Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 01.24.11
On January 24, 2011, the FAR Council issued an interim rule to implement a congressional mandate that the public must have access to all information (excluding past performance reviews) in the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (“FAPIIS”), which was created in 2010 as a one-stop shop for contracting officers to review information about prospective contractors’ business ethics, integrity, and performance. After April 15, 2011, the public will have access to contractor-provided information about criminal, civil, and administrative proceedings, as well as government-provided information about contract terminations for default or cause and suspension and debarment.

Supplemental Environmental Projects (SEPs) are voluntary, environmental or public health projects that parties subject to environmental enforcement proceedings can propose as part of an administrative, civil, or criminal settlement. SEPs are unique and used specifically in environmental enforcement cases in part because (1) many environmental law statutes do not require a showing of harm to prove a violation; thus, redressing harm, outside of equitable relief, is not usually statutorily required; and (2) pollution is a public harm that is hard to redress, both individually and collectively.
