SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Summaries for each FAR rule follow. For the 
actual revisions and/or amendments made by these FAR rules, refer to 
the specific item numbers and subjects set forth in the documents 
following these item summaries. FAC 2024-07 amends the FAR as follows:

Item I--Reference to Penalty Threshold (FAR Case 2023-005)

    This final rule amends the FAR to align the penalties language in 
the FAR lobbying provision at FAR 52.203-11 with the equivalent 
penalties language in the FAR lobbying clause at FAR 52.203-12. FAR 
52.203-11(e) cites to the underlying authority at 31 U.S.C. 1352 and 
specifies that an imposition of a civil penalty does not prevent the 
Government from seeking any other remedy that may be applicable.

Item II--Technical Amendments

    Administrative changes are made at FAR 4.1202, 19.102, and 19.309.
