The FAIR Act Report

added this

This special ongoing section provides lists of jobs that could potentially be outsourced under the 1998 Federal Activities Inventory Reform Act. New lists will be added as agencies release them.

These lists include all activities performed by federal employees that could be outsourced to private firms, as reported by the agencies. Activities that are considered "inherently governmental" are not included on the lists, unless noted. Jobs are listed by category, and in some cases, by location.
