[Code of Federal Regulations] [Title 2, Volume 1] [Revised as of January 1, 2008] From the U.S. Government Printing Office via GPO Access [CITE: 2CFR901.220] [Page 200] TITLE 2--GRANTS AND AGREEMENTS CHAPTER IX--DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY PART 901_NONPROCUREMENT DEBARMENT AND SUSPENSION--Table of Contents Subpart B_Covered Transactions Sec. 901.220 What contracts and subcontracts, in addition to those listed in 2 CFR 180.220, are covered transactions? Although the OMB guidance at 2 CFR180.220(c) allows a Federal agency to do so (also see optional lower tier coverage in the figure in the appendix to 2 CFR part 180), DOE does not extend coverage of nonprocurement suspension and debarment requirements beyond first-tier procurement contracts under a covered nonprocurement transaction.
