• Park Garbage Bag Competitive Bid Contract

Conclusion The appeals court, therefore, concluded that the contract was void because "Interboro's bags were not of the thickness reguired by the bid specifications." Since "Interboro's bid did not substantially comply with the call for bids," the appeals court affirmed the summary judgment of the district court effectively dismissing Interboro's breach- of- contract claim.

• Operational Contract Support

This part establishes policy, assigns responsibilities, and provides procedures for (OCS), including OCS program management, contract support integration, and integration of defense contractor personnel into contingency operations outside the United States. An interim final rule is required to procedurally close gaps and ensure the correct planning, oversight and management of DoD contractors supporting contingency operations, by updating the existing outdated policy.

• Public Participation/Private Contract

Delegation, "Double Delegation," and Privatization Public participation has long been a central preoccupation of administrative law, a context in which government-run administrative agencies exercise important policymaking responsibility without a direct democratic check by legislatures.4 Indeed, the "delegation problem" in administrative law theory arises specifically from the concern that legislatures may weaken public participation when they confer authority on administrative agencies.5 Accordingly, much of domestic administrative law is concerned with increasing public awareness, participation, and oversight through statutes and doctrines such as the Freedom of Information Act,6 the Federal Advisory Committee Act,7 inspector-general review,8 whistleblower protection statutes,9 ci...

• Omaha Unilaterally Changes Retiree's Benefits - Contract Clause Implications

Many American cities are facing budget shortfalls in 2010. The mayor and city council in Omaha, Nebraska addressed the shortfall by unilaterally requiring retirees to pay a portion of their health insurance premiums, despite labor contracts requiring the city to pay the entire premium. The contract clause in the United States Constitution prohibits states (and cities) from interfering with the obligation of contract; however, this prohibition is not absolute. This paper examines whether or not Omaha can legally require retirees to pay a portion of the premium.
