Client Alert | 1 min read | 09.01.16
On August 30, 2016, DoD published a final rule that expands allowability of costs of actual or suspect counterfeit electronic parts and the cost of rework or corrective action due to their use. Whereas, previously, such costs were only allowable if the parts were government-furnished property, effective August 30, 2016, such costs will also be allowable if the parts are obtained in accordance with the newly added DFARS 252.246-7008 concerning sourcing of electronic parts; the contractor becomes aware of the part through inspection, testing, authentication, or other means; and it provides notice to the cognizant COs and GIDEP within 60 days of becoming aware.

U.S. Department of Commerce Partially Relaxes Export Controls on Syria
On August 28, the U.S. Department of Commerce Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) published a final rule that modifies the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to reduce the number of export control restrictions on Syria, in alignment with Executive Order 14312, Providing For The Revocation of Syria Sanctions. The key adjustments made by this rule include the addition of new or expanded license exception eligibility for exports and reexports to Syria (which significantly broadens the number of items that can be exported or reexported to Syria) and the adoption of more permissive license review policies for exports and reexports to Syria.
