Sec. 74.16  Resource Conservation and Recovery Act.

    Under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) (Pub. L. 94-
580 codified at 42 U.S.C. 6962), any State agency or agency of a 
political subdivision of a State which is using appropriated Federal 
funds must comply with section 6002 of the RCRA. Section 6002 requires 
that preference be given in procurement programs to the purchase of 
specific products containing recycled materials identified in guidelines 
developed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) (40 CFR parts 
247-254). Accordingly, recipients that receive direct Federal awards or 
other Federal funds shall give preference in their procurement programs 
funded with Federal funds to the purchase of recycled products pursuant 
to the EPA guidelines.
