Title: Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR); FAR Case 2014-026; High Global Warming Potential Hydrofluorocarbons 
Abstract:

DoD, GSA, and NASA is issuing a final rule to amend the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to implement Executive Branch policy in the President’s Climate Action Plan to procure, when feasible, alternatives to high global warming potential (GWP) hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). This will allow agencies to better meet the greenhouse gas emission reduction goals and reporting requirements of the Executive Order 13693 of March 25, 2015, Planning for Sustainability in the Next Decade. Executive Order 13693 subsumes both Executive Order 13423 of January 24, 2007, Strengthening Federal Environmental, Energy, and Transportation Management as well as Executive Order 13514 of October 5, 2009, Federal Leadership in Environmental, Energy, and Economic Performance.
