Notice; request for comments.

The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) has placed in the docket and on its website proposed guidance in the form of an updated circular pertaining to procurements financed in whole or part with Federal assistance awarded by FTA through grants or cooperative agreements (i.e., "third party" procurements). This updated circular would cancel and replace Circular FTA C 4220.1F, most recently revised March 18, 2013. The proposed updates reflect statutory and regulatory changes that have occurred since the last update, as well as providing additional non-binding guidance. By this notice, FTA invites public comment on its proposed circular, "Third Party Contracting Guidance."
