On March 22, 2018, the Department of Defense (DoD) issued a Class Deviation to ensure that all DoD agencies comply with the enhanced post-award debriefings set forth in in Section 818 of the FY 2018 National Defense Authorization Act. Effective immediately, offerors may submit additional questions within two business days of their debriefing, to which the agency is required to respond within five business days. A protest filed within five calendar days of receipt of the Government’s responses to additional questions will trigger issuance of the automatic stay of performance provided for by the Competition in Contracting Act.

Earlier this month, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) withdrew a February 2024 Biden administration proposed rule, “Definition of Hazardous Waste Applicable to Corrective Action for Releases From Solid Waste Management Units,” under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA).[1] The withdrawn proposal would have revised RCRA corrective action regulations to expressly apply the broader statutory definition of “hazardous waste,” rather than only the narrower regulatory definition. Now, EPA is maintaining the status quo for corrective action under RCRA. However, EPA’s withdrawal of its proposed RCRA hazardous waste definition makes no mention of its corresponding proposal from 2024 to list nine per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) as RCRA hazardous constituents.[2] This disjointed withdrawal, while providing some certainty for regulated entities, does not resolve how EPA plans to address PFAS under the RCRA program.
