DFAS 52.204-9000 "REPLACEMENT OF PAPER DOCUMENT DISTRIBUTION WITH

ELECTRONIC DOCUMENT ACCESS (EDA)” (JUN 2012)

Copies of DFAS contracts and modifications are available on the Electronic Document Access

(EDA) website at http://eda.ogden.disa.mil. The website provides access information as well as

EDA Help Desk Support.

DFAS 52.223-9000, “ENVIRONMENTALLY PREFERABLE PRODUCTS” (July 2013)

The Environmentally Preferable Products clause is included in this contract to articulate the

Government’s policies on Green Contracting. FAR 23.403 sets forth the Federal Government’s policy to acquire items composed of the highest percentage of recycled-content practical, in a cost effective manner while still obtaining other contracting goals. Recycled-content products are http://eda.ogden.disa.mil/ identified in the Environmental Protection Agency’s Comprehensive Procurement Guidelines

(CPGs). The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) will be producing a similar list which designates Bio-based products. EPA guideline items (and USDA designated bio-based products, when designated) are seen as the minimum that should be considered when evaluating environmentally preferable materials. Other environmentally preferable materials and products not listed, but commonly used in industry outside of the Government, should also be considered.

Executive Order 13423 (January 24, 2007) required federal agencies to use sustainable environmental practices, including acquisition of bio-based, environmentally preferable, energy-efficient, water-efficient, and recycled-content products. Moreover, it required that paper of at least 30 percent post-consumer fiber content must be acquired or used in Agency acquisitions of goods and services.

Executive Order 13514 (October 5, 2009), required federal agencies to analyze internal processes and revise reporting requirements in order to achieve such results as improvement of water use and efficiency, promoting pollution prevention and elimination of waste. But more particularly as related to procurement, an emphasis was placed on efforts to advance sustainable acquisitions to ensure that 95 percent of new contract actions including task and delivery orders, for products and services with the exception of acquisition of weapon systems, are energy-efficient (Energy

Star or Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) designated – FAR 52.223-15, and -16 when specific to computer products), water-efficient (Goals within Executive Order 13514), bio-based (FAR 52.223-1 & -2), environmentally preferable (FAR 52.223-10) and/or Electronic

Product Environmental Assessment Tool (EPEAT – FAR 52.223-16) certified, non-ozone depleting (FAR 52.223-11), contain recycled content, or are non-toxic or less-toxic alternatives

(FAR 52.223-3 & DFARS 252.223-7006), where such products and services meet agency performance requirements.

§ 1. Mandatory Use of Paper and Other Products with Recycled Content.

(a) All paper utilized in the performance of this contract must be of at least 30 percent post-consumer fiber content.

(b) The contractor affirmatively acknowledges that it will, to the maximum extent practicable, use sustainable environmental practices including acquisition of bio-based, environmentally preferable, energy-efficient, water-efficient, and recycled-content products in the performance of this contract that meet the recycled-content recommendations for EPA designated items, which are found at http://www.epa.gov/epaoswer/non-hw/procure/products.htm. In addition, by responding to this solicitation the contractor is certifying the deliverables required under this contract shall meet the recycled-content recommendations for EPA designated items

(FAR 52.223-17).

§ 2 Notice of Green Alternatives in Offerors’ Product/Service.

(a) When offering a product or service that contains “Green” components as that term is defined at http://www.epa.gov/epaoswer/non-hw/procure/products.htm, the contractor shall make the Contracting Officer aware of such facts in the submission of their quote or proposal.

(b) The contractor, when appropriate, shall comply with FAR Clause 52.223-9 Estimate of Percentage of Recovered Material Content for EPA Designated Products, and provide the certification required by FAR 52.223-4, when required.

http://www.epa.gov/epaoswer/non-hw/procure/products.htm http://www.epa.gov/epaoswer/non-hw/procure/products.htm

§ 3 Affirmative Duty of Contractors to Adhere to Green Contracting Policy.

(a) Whenever practicable, the Contractor has an affirmative duty to examine its packaging to eliminate or reduce waste by volume, toxicity and/or weight and to utilize or substitute recyclable material for non-recyclable material in packaging.
