Contractors Must Seek Approval Before Sharing
If you hold a DoD contract, the DFARS clause 252.204-7000 requires you to get the contracting officer's approval before releasing any unclassified contract-related information outside your organization, unless that information is already public. When you ask for approval you must identify the specific information, the medium you will use, and the purpose for the release, and the Government will review the submission to decide if the information is sensitive.
Paperwork Burden: Hours and Responses Quantified
The collection covers 280 business or nonprofit respondents, with about 415 total annual responses (≈1.48 responses per respondent). The average burden is 3 hours per response, for a total of 1,245 annual burden hours across respondents.

2026-09067, Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement: Mitigating Risks Related to Foreign Ownership, Control, or Influence (DFARS Case 2021-D011)
The Department of Defense is updating rules to make sure companies working with them reveal if they’re owned or controlled by foreign folks. This helps keep our defense projects safe from hidden foreign influence. If you’re a contractor or subcontractor, get ready to share ownership info by July 6, 2026, or risk delays in your contracts.
2026-09038, Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement: Disclosure of Greenhouse Gas Emissions (DFARS Case 2024-D021)
Starting May 7, 2026, the Department of Defense won’t make most new defense contractors share their greenhouse gas emissions unless it’s really needed for the contract. This change helps nontraditional contractors avoid extra paperwork, but DoD can still ask for info if it’s directly tied to the job. It’s a smart move to keep things fair and focused without slowing down important defense work.
