45 CFR Parts 1630 and 1631
[Docket No. LSC-2017-0028]
Cost Standards and Procedures; Purchasing and Property Management; Correction
AGENCY:
Legal Services Corporation.
ACTION:
Final rule; correction.
SUMMARY:
The Legal Services Corporation (LSC) is correcting a final rule that appeared in the Federal Register on August 10, 2017. LSC's Property Acquisition and Management Manual (PAMM) and its cost standards rule required grantees to seek approval prior to making any real estate purchase with LSC funds, regardless of the purchase price. The final rule's language describing this longstanding policy was incorrect. This document corrects the language to remain consistent with LSC's current policy. The document also contained an incorrect cross-reference to another section. This document corrects the final rule by revising that cross-reference.
DATES:
Effective December 31, 2017.
