Comment from National Industries for the Blind

Summary: National Industries for the Blind (NIB), a central nonprofit agency, opposes the proposed rule because it incorrectly attempts to apply the Uniform Guidance to the AbilityOne Program Fee, which they argue is not a "federal award." They contend that the rule is premature, creates unnecessary administrative burdens, and lacks sufficient economic analysis, requesting that the Commission withdraw the NPRM and wait for OMB's final rule on the Uniform Guidance.
