PART 125--GOVERNMENT CONTRACTING PROGRAMS--Table of Contents
 
                Subpart D--Protests Concerning SDVO SBCs
 
Sec. 125.26  What are the grounds for filing an SDVO SBC protest?

    (a) Status. In cases where the protest is based on a service-
connected disability or veteran status, the Associate Administrator for 
Government Contracting will only consider a protest alleging that the 
owner(s) cannot provide documentation from the U.S. Department of 
Veterans Affairs or U.S. Department of Defense to show that they meet 
the definition of service-disabled veteran set forth in Sec. 125.8; or
    (b) Ownership and control. In cases where the protest is based on 
ownership and control, the Associate Administrator for Government 
Contracting will consider a protest only if the protestor presents 
credible evidence that the concern is not 51% owned and controlled by 
one or more service-disabled veterans. In the case of a veteran with a 
permanent and severe disability, the protestor must present credible 
evidence that the concern is not controlled by the veteran, spouse or 
permanent caregiver of such veteran or that the veteran does not have a 
permanent and severe disability.
