Park and Recreation - References and Guidance

Additional Guidance

The EPA recommendations for steel content start at 16%. The Steel Recycling Institute recently announced that all new steel contains a minimum of 28% recycled content.

The revised FAR clause 52.223-2, Affirmative Procurement of Biobased Products Under Service and Construction Contracts, requires contractors to report annually "on the product types and dollar value of any USDA-designated biobased products purchased by the Contractor during the previous Government fiscal year." Agencies are required to identify an environmental point of contact to receive this information.
