This part establishes a system of procurement regulations and procedures applicable to procurement of property, rights and services (including construction) necessary to the operations of the Community Services Administration, Executive Office of the President. This system is based upon the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949, and is comprised of the Federal Procurement Regulations (referred to herein as FPR), and Community Services Administration, Procurement Regulations (referred to herein as CSAPR, which are hereby established). This part describes the method by which the Community Services Administration implements, supplements, and may deviate from the FPR, and sets forth policies and procedures which iinplement and supplement the FPR. Subpart 22-1.0-Introduction § 22-1.001 Scope of subpart. This subpart sets forth introductory information pertaining to the Community Services Administration Procurement Regulations (herein identified as CSAPR). It explains the purpose of the CSAPR, the authority under which they are issued, their relationship to the Federal Procurement Regulations, and their applicability, method of issuance, exclusions, and arrangement. It also outlines procedures for implementing, supplementing, and deviating from the FPR. § 22-1.002 Purpose. The Federal Procurement Regulations, as implemented, supplemented, or deviated from by the Community Services Administration Procurement Regulations set forth in this chapter, are hereby designated as the authorized regulations governing the procurement of property, rights, and services (including construction) necessary to the operations of the Community Services Administration, Executive Office of the President. § 22-1.003 Authority. (a) The Community Services Administration Procurement Regulations (CSAPR) are prescribed pursuant to Title III of the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 (63 Stat. 377), as amended, and section 602(n) of Pub. L. 88-452, as amended and the authority delegated to the Director of Contracts. (b) Procurement instructions and procedures which are necessary to implement, supplement, or deviate from the FPR, will be issued in the CSAPR by the Director of Contracts, when necessary to accomplish Community Services Administration procurement objectives. § 22-1.004 Applicability. § 22-1.004-1 [Reserved] § 22-1.004-2 Relationship to the FPR. Material published in the FPP which has Government-wide applicability, becomes effective throughout the Community Services Administration upon the effective date cited in the particular FPR material. Such material generally will not be repeated, paraphrased, or otherwise stated in CSAPR except to the extent necessary to supplement, implement, or deviate from the FPR. § 22-1.004-3 Description. The meanings of CSAPR "implementation," "supplementation," and "deviation" from the FPR includes the following: (a) "Implementation" means a part, subpart, section, etc., which treats the policies and procedures of a similarly numbered portion of the FPR in greater detail or indicates the manner of compliance, including any deviations. However, material in this Chapter 22 which differs from material in Chapter 1 of this title (FPR) shall be regarded as a deviation only if explicitly reference to be a deviation. (b) "Supplementation" means CSAPR coverage of matters which have no counterpart in the FPR. (c) "Deviation" is defined in FPR 11.009-1. § 22-1.004-4 Interim applications. The regulations in this chapter apply to all Community Services Administration procurement actions, except as otherwise specified herein; however, existing Community Services Administration procurement regulations, procedures, instructions, and requirements, not in conflict with FPR, will remain in effect until superseded by an appropriate CSAPR, or otherwise rescinded. § 22-1.005 Exclusions. (a) Certain Community Services Administration procurement policies and procedures which come within the scope of this Chapter 22 nevertheless may be excluded when justified. The exclusions may include the following categories: (1) Policies or procedures effective for a period of less than 6 months. (2) Policies or procedures effective on an experimental basis for a reasonable period. (3) Policies and procedures pertaining to other functions of the Community Services Administration as well as to procurement functions, and where there is need to make the issuance available to all Community Services Administration employees concerned. (4) Where speed of issuance is essential, and numerous changes required in this Chapter 22 cannot be made promptly. (b) Procurement policies and procedures issued under the authority of paragraph (a)(3) and (4) of this section will be codified into this Chapter 22 at the earliest practicable date, but in any event not later than six months from date of issuance. § 22-1.006 Issuance. § 22-1.006-1 Code arrangement. Community Services Administration Procurement Regulations which basically or significantly implement, supplement or deviate from the Federal Procurement Regulations, Chapter 1 of this Title 41 of the Code of Federal Regulations, will be published as this Chapter 22 of this Title 41, Code of Federal Regulations. § 22-1.006-2 Publication. This Chapter 22 of this Title 41, Code of Federal Regulations will be published in the daily issues of the FEDERAL REGISTER, and in cumulated form in the Code of Federal Regulations. § 22-1.006-3 Copies.

The Community Services Administration Procurement Regulations (CSAPR) employ the same numbering system and nomenclature as the Fed eral Procurement Regulations and conform with FEDERAL REGISTER standards approved for the FPR. § 22-1.007-2 Numbering. (a) This Chapter 22 has been allocated to the Community Services Administration for implementing, supplementing, and deviating from Chapter 1 of this Title 41 CFR, the Federal Procurement Regulations. (b) Where the CSAPR implements (or deviates from) a part, subpart, section, or subsection of the FPR, the implementing part, subpart, section, or subsection of CSAPR will be numbered (and captioned) to correspond to the part, subpart, section, or subsection of Chapter 1 of this title, CFR, the FPR. (c) Where the subject matter contained in a part, subpart, section, or subsection of FPR requires no implementation, the CSAPR will contain no corresponding part, subpart, section, or subsection number and the subject matter as published in the FPR gov erns. (d) CSAPR's which supplement the FPR will be assigned an appropriate number and title different from any assigned to an FPR. § 22-1.007-3 Citation. The Community Services Administration Procurement Regulations will be cited in accordance with FEDERAL REGISTER Standards approved for the FPR. Thus this section, when referred to in sections of the Community Services Administration Procurement Regulations, should be cited as "§ 221.007-3 of this chapter." When this section is referred to formally in official documents, such as legal briefs, it should be cited as "41 CFR 22-1.0073." Any section of Community Services Administration Procurement Regulations may be informally identified, for purposes of brevity, as CSAPR followed by the section number, i.e., "CSAPR 22-1.007-3." § 22-1.008 Agency implementation. § 22-1.008-1 Suffixes. CSAPR's which may be issued to provide for special requirements of in dividual programs will be identified by alphabetical suffixes to the appropriate digit 22 part, subpart, section, and subsection.

(b) If a requested deviation is considered appropriate, approval will be accomplished as follows: (1) Where the deviation applies to an individual case, approval will be granted by memorandum addressed to the requesting officer with copies to interested offices. The contract file of the requesting office shall include a copy of the request and approval. (2) Where the deviation applies to a class of cases, necessary coordination with the General Services Administration will be accomplished by the Director of Contracts. Such class deviations will be issued as a part of CSAPR. (3) Where circumstances preclude the obtaining of prior concurrence of the GSA, to a class of cases, the Director of Contracts may authorize a deviation. In such an instance, the Director of Contracts shall inform the GSA of the deviation and circumstances under which it was required. (c) The requesting office will be notified by memorandum, with copies to other interested offices, whenever a requested deviation is disapproved. (d) In emergency situations involving individual cases, deviation approvals may be processed by telephone and later confirmed in writing. (e) Requests for deviations may be made at any time.
