- Description
- The Small Business Administration (SBA) proposes to establish a $15 million size standard for the Forest Fire Suppression and Fuels Management activities classified within the ''Support Activities for Forestry'' industry (North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) 115310). The current size standard is $6 million. This action is warranted in light of increased emphasis by the Federal Government on removing biomass fuel from the nation's forests, the dramatic increase in funding for this effort, and the Government's growing reliance upon the private sector to perform fuels management tasks and to suppress forest fires. DATES: Comments must be received on or before August 19, 2002. The rule is available on SBA's web site at http://www.sba.gov/size/indexwhatsnew.html.
