As required by section 124 of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-11, the DRA Lapse Plan was submitted to OMB on September 23, 2023. The document outlines the DRA’s plan for operating in the event of a lapse in appropriations. The purpose of the DRA Lapse Plan is to ensure that DRA, as an executive agency of the U.S. government, can perform an orderly suspension of programs and operations should a lapse occur while continuing those limited activities authorized to continue in the event of an appropriations hiatus.
