    Oh wait,  I did some more digging and found this Federal Register entry from June 30, 2020 for a Proposed Rule.  Is this it?  I just want to be sure.

    Federal Acquisition Regulation: Inflation Adjustment of Acquisition-Related Thresholds 85 FR 39146

    And the Final Rule was issued on October 2, 2020:
