What the OMB Cybersecurity Proposal Does and Doesn't Do
Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 08.28.15
Open for comment until September 10, the recently released OMB cybersecurity guidance, Improving Cybersecurity Protections in Federal Acquisitions, marks another attempt by the Obama Administration to improve our nation's cybersecurity through the regulation of federal contractors. Although it addresses key areas concerning cybersecurity risk management, Crowell & Moring attorneys explain in this Law360 article why the proposed guidance may generate more problems than it resolves by creating the potential for even more inconsistency across agency standards.

On August 15, 2025, the Treasury Department and IRS released updated guidance concerning Beginning of Construction requirements to qualify for clean energy tax credits. This new guidance is critical for developers to consider as they rush to qualify for the tax credits before they expire entirely.

The new guidance comes at a time when many in the industry are struggling to keep up with the myriad ways that the new administration is working to roll back wind and solar tax credits, leaving developers to piece through the recent guidance to determine how best to structure and invest in clean energy projects given the volatile position of the current administration vis-a-vis wind and solar energy.
