On December 26, 2007, the Federal Acquisition Regulation was amended to add provisions for implementing the E.O. 13423 requirement that, when purchasing certain electronic products covered by the EPEAT standard, 95% of what the agencies purchase must be EPEAT-registered products. This is an interim final rule that goes into effect immediately, although the FAR Councils are accepting comments. Among other things, the new FAR provisions provide a contract clause for purchasing EPEAT products at the bronze level and an alternate clause for purchasing such products at the silver level.
