appears.

"Foreign Incorporated Entity" means any entity which is, or but for
subsection (b) of Section 835 of the Homeland Security Act, 6 U.S.C. 395,
would be, treated as a foreign corporation for purposes of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986.

"Inverted Domestic Corporation." A foreign incorporated entity shall be
treated as an inverted domestic corporation if, pursuant to a plan (or a
series of related transactions)-

(1) The entity completes the direct or indirect acquisition of
substantially all of the properties held directly or indirectly by a domestic
corporation or substantially all of the properties constituting a trade or
business of a domestic partnership;

(2) After the acquisition at least 80 percent of the stock (by vote or

holding a capital or profits interest in the domestic partnership; and

(3) The expanded affiliated group which after the acquisition includes the
entity does not have substantial business activities in the foreign country in
which or under the law of which the entity is created or organized when
compared to the total business activities of such expanded affiliated group.

paragraphs (1), (4), and (5) of section 7701 (a) of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, respectively.
(c) Special rules. The following definitions and special rules shall apply
when determining whether a foreign incorporated entity should be treated as an

NOTICE FOR FILING AGENCY PROTESTS

It is the policy of the Coast Guard to issue solicitations and make contract
awards in a fair and timely manner. The Ombudsman Program for Agency Protests
(OPAP) was established to investigate agency protest issues and resolve them
without expensive and time-consuming litigation. OPAP is an independent
reviewing authority that is empowered to grant a prevailing protester
essentially the same relief as the General Accounting Office (GAO).
Interested parties are encouraged to seek resolution of their concerns within
the Coast Guard as an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) forum, rather than
filing a protest with the GAO or some external forum. Interested parties may
seek resolution of their concerns informally or opt to file a formal agency
protest with the contracting officer or Ombudsman.

Informal forum with the Ombudsman. Interested parties who believe that a Coast
Guard procurement is unfair or otherwise defective should first direct their
concerns to the cognizant contracting officer. If the contracting officer is
unable to satisfy the concerns, the interested party is encouraged to contact
the Coast Guard Ombudsman for Agency Protests. Under this informal process,
the agency is not required to suspend contract award performance. Use of an
informal forum does not suspend any time requirement for filing a protest with
the agency or other forum. In order to ensure a timely response, interested
parties should provide the following information to the Ombudsman:
solicitation/contract number, contracting office, contracting officer, and
solicitation closing date (if applicable).

Formal Agency Protest with the Ombudsman. Prior to submitting a formal agency
protest, protesters must first use their best efforts to resolve their
concerns with the contracting officer through open and frank discussions. If
the protester?s concerns are unresolved, an independent review is available by
the Ombudsman. The protester may file a formal agency protest to either the
contracting officer or as an alternative to that, the Ombudsman under the OPAP
program. Contract award or performance will be suspended during the protest
period unless contract award or performance is justified, in writing, for
urgent and compelling reasons or is determined in writing to be in the best
interest of the Government. The agency?s goal is to resolve protests in less
than 35 calendar days from the date of filing. Protests shall include the
information set forth at FAR 33.103(d)(2). If the protester fails to submit
the required information, resolution of the protest may be delayed or the
protest may be dismissed. This will not preclude re-filing of the protest to
meet the requirement. To be timely, protests must be filed within the period
specified in FAR 33.103(e). Formal protests filed under the OPAP program
should be forwarded to the address below:
