1605(a) of the Recovery Act provides
that none of the funds appropriated or
made available by the Recovery Act may
be used for a project for the
construction, alteration, maintenance, or
repair of a public building or public
work unless all of the iron, steel, and
manufactured goods used in the project
are produced in the United States.
Section 1605(b) provides that the Buy
American requirement shall not apply
in any case or category in which the
head of a Federal department or agency
finds that: (1) Applying the Buy
American requirement would be
inconsistent with the public interest; (2)
iron, steel, and the relevant
manufactured goods are not produced in
the U.S. in sufficient and reasonably
available quantities or of satisfactory
quality, or (3) inclusion of iron, steel,
and manufactured goods will increase
the cost of the overall project by more
than 25 percent. Section 1605(c)

department or agency makes a
determination pursuant to section
1605(b), the head of the department or

In accordance with section 1605(c) of

advises the public that, in 2010, upon
request of the Chicago Housing
Authority, HUD granted an exception to
the applicability of the Buy American

using CFRFC grant funds, based on the
fact that the relevant manufactured
goods (marmoleum and linoleum floor
tiles, ADA-compliant dishwashers, GFCI
outlets and an Audio/Video entry and
dwelling communications system) are
not produced in the U.S. in sufficient
and reasonably available quantities or of

Park Service (NPS) announces the

District of Wrangell-St. Elias National
Park and Preserve. The DEIS evaluates
the environmental impacts of a
preferred alternative and three action
alternatives for management of off-road
vehicles in the Nabesna District. The
purpose is to consider opportunities for
appropriate and reasonable access to
wilderness and backcountry recreational
activities, which also accommodates
subsistence and access to inholdings
while protecting scenic quality, fish and
wildlife habitat, and other park resource
values. A no action alternative is also
evaluated. This notice announces the
public comment period, the locations of
public meetings, and solicits comments
on the DEIS. This DEIS also provides
notice of a proposed technical
correction to the wilderness eligibility
assessment which was approved in the
1986 Wrangell-St. Elias National Park
and Preserve General Management Plan.
Public comment on the revised
wilderness eligibility map for the
Nabesna District is specifically
requested.
DATES: The NPS will accept comments
on the DEIS for 90 days following
publication by the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) of the Notice
of Availability of the Draft
Environmental Impact Statement. After
the EPA Notice of Availability is
published, the NPS will schedule public
meetings during the comment period.
Dates, times and locations of these
meetings will be announced in press
releases, local media and on the NPS
Planning, Environment and Public
Comment (PEPC) Web site for the
project at https://parkplanning.nps.gov/
wrst.
ADDRESSES: Copies of the DEIS will be
available for public review at https://

are available at park headquarters, or
may be requested from Meg Jensen,
Superintendent, Wrangell-St. Elias
National Park and Preserve, P.O. Box

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This DEIS
evaluates the impacts of a range of
alternatives for managing off-road
vehicles (ORVs) for recreational and
subsistence use in the Nabesna District
of Wrangell-St. Elias National Park and
