[FR Doc. 2010–33059 Filed 12–30–10; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE P NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION Notice of Buy American Waiver Under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 AGENCY: National Science Foundation (NSF). ACTION: Notice. SUMMARY: NSF is hereby granting a limited exemption of section 1605 of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act), Public Law 111–5, 123 Stat. 115, 303 (2009), with respect to the purchase of the anti-roll tank control system that will be used in the Alaska Region Research Vessel (ARRV). An anti-roll tank is a system that is built into a vessel’s hull to reduce rolling motion when operating at sea. DATES: January 3, 2011. ADDRESSES: National Science Foundation, 4201 Wilson Blvd., Arlington, Virginia 22230. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Jeffrey Leithead, Division of Acquisition and Cooperative Support, 703–292– 4595. In accordance with section 1605(c) of the Recovery Act and section 176.80 of Title 2 of the Code of Federal Regulations, the National Science Foundation (NSF) hereby provides notice that on October 22, 2010, the NSF Chief Financial Officer, in accordance with a delegation order from the Director of the agency, granted a limited project exemption of section 1605 of the Recovery Act (Buy American provision) with respect to the anti-roll tank control system that will be used in the ARRV. The basis for this exemption is section 1605(b)(2) of the Recovery Act, in that a ‘‘passivecontrolled’’ anti-roll tank control system of satisfactory quality is not produced in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available commercial quantities. The cost of the anti-roll tank control system (∼$130,000) represents less than 0.1% of the total $148 million Recovery Act award provided toward construction of the ARRV. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background The Recovery Act appropriated $400 million to NSF for several projects being funded by the Foundation’s Major PO 00000 Frm 00104 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Research Equipment and Facilities Construction (MREFC) account. The ARRV is one of NSF’s MREFC projects. Section 1605(a) of the Recovery Act, the Buy American provision, states that none of the funds appropriated by the 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.’’ The ARRV has been developed under a cooperative agreement awarded to the University of Alaska, Fairbanks (UAF) that began in 2007. UAF executed the shipyard contract in December 2009 and the project is proceeding toward construction. The purpose of the Recovery Act is to stimulate economic recovery in part by funding current construction projects like the ARRV that are ‘‘shovel ready’’ without requiring projects to revise their standards and specifications, or to restart the bidding process again. Subsections 1605(b) and (c) of the Recovery Act authorize the head of a Federal department or agency to waive the Buy American provision if the head of the agency finds that: (1) Applying the provision would be inconsistent with the public interest; (2) the relevant goods are not produced in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available quantities and of a satisfactory quality; or (3) the inclusion of the goods produced in the United States will increase the cost of the project by more than 25 percent. If the head of the Federal department or agency waives the Buy American provision, then the head of the department or agency is required to publish a detailed justification in the Federal Register. Finally, section 1605(d) of the Recovery Act states that the Buy American provision must be applied in a manner consistent with the United States’ obligations under international agreements. II. Finding That Relevant Goods Are Not Produced in the United States in Sufficient and Reasonably Available Quality Installation of an anti-roll tank system is included in the construction specifications to improve the ARRV’s response to roll motion. Anti-roll tanks are a relatively simple and efficient way to improve the comfort and safety of personnel sailing aboard the ship. They consist of a tank filled with fluid (usually seawater) that is designed to slow the rate of water transfer from one side of the vessel to the other, trapping the larger amount of water on the higher side of the vessel. The water is trapped E:\FR\FM\03JAN1.SGM 03JAN1
