Green Procurement | |
"Green Procurement" (formerly known as Affirmative Procurement) is the purchase of environmentally preferable products and services in accordance with one or more of the established Federal "green" procurement preference programs. The mandatory Green Procurement program elements are:
- Recycled content products on the EPA CPG list
- Energy Star® products and energy efficient standby power devices
- Alternative fuel vehicles, alternative fuels, and fuel efficient vehicles
- Biobased products as defined by USDA
- Non-ozone depleting substances
- EPA Priority Chemicals
Federal purchasers are also encouraged to follow EPA's Environmentally Preferable Purchasing (EPP) guidelines as part of the Green Procurement Program.
The "Guide to Green Purchasing" was updated in January 2005 to reflect the full scope of the GPP and can be downloaded from the link below.
