This rule finalizes an interim rule that implemented changes in the

registry requirements at FAR subpart 23.7. The FAR requirement to
procure EPEAT[supreg]-registered products was revised to incorporate
the revised standard applicable to personal computer products and to

also amends the procedures relating to the exceptions to the
requirement to procure EPEAT[supreg]-registered products. There is no
significant economic impact on small businesses.
