Which section of the FAR deals with environmental considerations in procurement?

FAR Part 23 specifically addresses environmental considerations in procurement and emphasizes the importance of integrating sustainability into federal acquisitions. This part highlights the responsibility of federal agencies to promote environmentally preferable products and services, thus supporting the federal government's commitment to environmental stewardship.

This section includes regulations regarding:

• the acquisition of products and services that minimize adverse impacts on the environment,

• waste reduction measures,
• energy-efficient products,
• considerations for environmentally sustainable practices.

By focusing on these areas, FAR Part 23 ensures that federal procurement processes align with broader environmental goals and policies. The other parts mentioned do not concentrate directly on environmental considerations; they address different aspects of procurement such as forms, trade agreements, or cost principles, which are not centered on environmental sustainability.
