Federal Acquisition Regulation: 

Disclosure of Greenhouse Gas 

Emissions and Climate-Related 

Financial Risk 

AGENCY: Department of Defense (DoD), 

General Services Administration (GSA), 

and National Aeronautics and Space 

Administration (NASA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule; withdrawal. 

SUMMARY: DoD, GSA, and NASA are 

withdrawing the proposed rule to 

amend the Federal Acquisition 

Regulation (FAR) titled: Disclosure of 

Greenhouse Gas Emissions and ClimateRelated Financial Risk. Executive Order 

14030, directed the Federal Acquisition 

Regulatory Council to consider 

amending the Federal Acquisition 

Regulation (FAR) require major Federal 

suppliers to publicly disclose 

greenhouse gas emissions and climaterelated financial risk and to set sciencebased reduction targets. A proposed rule 

was published on November 14, 2022. 

The agencies lack sufficient time during 

the Biden-Harris Administration to 

finalize the proposal. In addition, the 

agencies’ analysis of public comments 

indicates an evolving practices and 

standards in industry, and an evolving 

domestic and international regulatory 

landscape. Accordingly, this proposed 

rule is withdrawn, and the FAR case is 

closed. 

DATES: The proposed rule published on 

November 14, 2022, at 87 FR 68312 is 

withdrawn as of January 13, 2025. 

ADDRESSES: farpolicy@gsa.gov.

‘‘FAR Case 2021–015’’. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

November 12, 2022, DoD, GSA, and 

NASA proposed to amend the FAR to 

implement section 5(b)(i) of Executive 

Order (E.O.) 14030, Climate-Related 

Financial Risk, to consider requiring 

major Federal suppliers to publicly 

disclose greenhouse gas (GHG) 

emissions and climate-related financial 

risk and to set science-based reduction 

targets. The agencies lack sufficient time 

during the Biden-Harris Administration, 

however, to finalize the proposal, 

particulalry given the large volume of 

public comments and the policy issues 

they raised. The agencies’ overall 

analysis of public comments indicates 

evolving practices and use of standards 

in industry, and since the publication of 

the proposed rule, differing domestic 

and international regulations covering 

greenhouse gas disclosures have been 

created. The FAR Council will continue 

to monitor recommendations from 

stakeholders on industry practice, both 

voluntary and under other 

requirements, to inform any future 

efforts in anticipation of continued 

movement towards more uniform use of 

standards. Accordingly, the proposed 

rule published at 87 FR 68312 on 

November 14, 2022, is withdrawn and 

FAR Case 2021–015 is closed.
