Download as PDF 47798 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 179 / Thursday, September 17, 2009 / Notices at the time of review has determined that the supporting documentation provided by the CVPSD is sufficient to meet the criteria listed under Section 1605(b) and in the April 28, 2009, ‘‘Implementation of Buy American provisions of Public Law 111–5, the ‘American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009’ Memorandum:’’ Iron, steel, and the manufactured goods are not produced in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available quantities and of a satisfactory quality. The basis for this project waiver is the authorization provided in Section 1605(b)(2). Due to the lack of production of this product in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available quantities and of a satisfactory quality in order to meet the CVPSD’s technical specifications, a waiver from the Buy American requirement is justified. The March 31, 2009 Delegation of Authority Memorandum provided Regional Administrators with the authority to issue exceptions to Section 1605 of ARRA within the geographic boundaries of their respective regions and with respect to requests by individual grant recipients. Having established both a proper basis to specify the particular good required for this project, and that this manufactured good was not available from a producer in the United States, the Canaan Valley Public Service District is hereby granted a waiver from the Buy American requirements of Section 1605(a) of Public Law 111–5 for the purchase of four membrane filtration cassettes using ARRA funds as specified in the CVPSD’s request of July 1, 2009. This supplementary information constitutes the detailed written justification required by Section 1605(c) for waivers ‘‘based on a finding under subsection (b).’’ Authority: Pub. L. 111–5, section 1605. Dated: August 27, 2009. William C. Early, Acting Regional Administrator, Region III. [FR Doc.
