FAR RIN: 9000-AN94 Publication ID: Spring 2021 
Title: Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR); FAR Case 2019-010, Efficient Federal Operations 
Abstract:

DoD, GSA, and NASA were proposing to revise the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to implement Executive Order 13834, "Efficient Federal Operations," which directed Federal agencies to comply with statutory requirements related to energy and environmental performance in a manner that increases efficiency, maximizes performance, eliminates unnecessary use of resources, and protects the environment.

 However, Executive Order 13834 was partially revoked by Executive Order 13990, Protecting Public Health and the Environment and Restoring Science To Tackle the Climate Crisis.  The sections of Executive Order 13834 that remain in effect have no impact on the FAR; therefore, this rule is withdrawn and the FAR case is closed. Any future amendments to the FAR related to environmental issues or sustainable acquisition will be accomplished under a new FAR case and RIN.
