The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) is proposing to revise the regulations implementing the non-discrimination and affirmative action regulations of section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended. Section 503 prohibits discrimination by covered Federal contractors and subcontractors against individuals on the basis of disability, and requires affirmative action on behalf of qualified individuals with disabilities.

The alleged U.S. abuse of Iraqi detainees at Abu Ghraib prison near Baghdad, and the suggestion that contract employees may have been among those responsible, has cast a spotlight on the military's extraordinary reliance on civilian contractors to perform even the most sensitive jobs.

LAYTON, Utah (AP) -- The Department of Defense has recommended closing the Deseret Chemical Depot but offered only a slight realignment for Hill Air Force Base Friday -- a giant relief to state leaders who feared its closure would devastate the Utah economy. On the potential chopping block were Hill, Dugway Proving Ground, the Tooele Army Depot and the Deseret Chemical Depot -- all of which anchor a large section of northern Utah that shelters tens of thousands of high-paying jobs.
