2.7 Regulatory requirements. In accordance with section 23.403 of the Federal Acquisition Regulations, the Government’s policy is to acquire items composed of the highest percentage of recovered materials practicable, consistent with maintaining a satisfactory level of competition without adversely affecting performance requirements or exposing suppliers’ employees to undue hazards from the recovered materials in accordance with Public Law 94-580 to the maximum extent practicable. The term “recovered materials” means materials to become a source of raw materials as opposed to virgin raw materials.
