SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Purpose
Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR)
subpart 23.10, implements Executive
Order (E.O.) 13148 of April 21, 2000,
Greening the Government through
Leadership in Environmental
Management, and it also provides a
means for agencies to obtain contractor
information for the implementation of
environmental management systems
(EMSs) and the completion of facility
compliance audits (FCAs) at certain
Federal facilities. This information
collection will be accomplished by
means of Alternates I and II to FAR
clause 52.223–5. Alternate I of 52.223–
5 require contractors to provide
information needed by a Federal facility
to implement an EMS and Alternate II
of 52.223–5 requires contractors to
complete an FCA. FAR subpart 23.10
and its associated contract clause at
FAR 52.223–5 also implement the
requirements of E.O. 13148 to require
that Federal facilities comply with the
planning and reporting requirements of
the Pollution Prevention Act (PPA) of
1990 (42 U.S.C. 13101–13109), and the
Emergency Planning and Community
Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) of 1986 (42
U.S.C. 11001–11050). The E.O. requires
that contracts to be performed on a
Federal facility provide for the
contractor to supply to the Federal
agency all information the Federal
agency deems necessary to comply with
these reporting requirements.

Number of Respondents: 7,460.
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Annual Responses: 7,460.
