General Agreements

Overall agreements with Participating Agencies to establish policy for working relationships with those agencies for the provision of services, but shall not in themselves provide such services, which are provided by implementing PASA's and RSSA's. They are authorized pursuant to Sections 621 (a) and 632 (b) of the FAA. They have been executed with those Federal agencies most often called upon for assistance: the Departments of Agriculture (USDA) Commerce, Health and Human Services (HHS) Interior, and Labor, and the General Services Administration (GSA) (USAID Automated Directives System - ADS - Chapter 306).
