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 2025-04 amends the FAR as follows:

Item I--List of Domestically Nonavailable Articles (FAR Case 2020-009)

    This final rule amends the FAR to revise the list of domestically 
nonavailable articles under the Buy American statute. The changes are 
not expected to have a significant economic impact on a substantial 
number of small entities. It is expected that this rule will encourage 
small businesses to take an interest in building domestic manufacturing 
capabilities and capacity; this would be a positive impact though not a 
substantial impact.

Item II--Technical Amendments

    Administrative changes are made at FAR 1.401, 17.703, 33.105, 
52.101, 52.102, 52.300, and 52.301.
