Notice of Buy American Waiver Under

Notice.
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 Heating
Ventilating and Air Conditioning
(HVAC) system steam generators that
will be used in the Alaska Region
Research Vessel (ARRV). Steam
generators provide added humidity for
the HVAC system.
DATES: June 20, 2011.

SUMMARY:
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 May 25,
2011, 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
HVAC system steam generators that will
be used in the ARRV. The basis for this
exemption is section 1605(b)(2) of the
Recovery Act, in that HVAC system
steam generators of satisfactory quality
are not produced in the United States in
sufficient and reasonably available
commercial quantities. The cost of the

six (6) required HVAC system steam
generators (∼$15,000) represents less
than 0.1% of the total $148 million
Recovery Act award provided toward
construction of the ARRV.
I. Background
The Recovery Act appropriated $400
million to NSF for several projects being
funded by the Foundation’s Major
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 currently under
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
Section 512.5.4 of the technical
specifications for the ARRV (Rev E.,
October 2009) require installation of

steam generators in the HVAC system.
This is necessary to provide needed
interior humidity for environmental
quality and health of personnel in the
dry air of the Polar regions. The HVAC
specifications are based on the Society
of Naval Architects and Marine
Engineers (SNAME) Technical and
Research Standard R 4–16 and establish
the minimum acceptable standards for a
sustained living and work environment
at sea. The resulting technical
requirements for selecting the HVAC
system steam generators include:
1. Maintain 50% relative humidity at
the compartment’s interior design
temperature of 70 °F during winter
conditions.
2. Make steam for humidity from the
ship’s potable water using electricity
rather than engine waste heat to save
weight with piping systems.
3. Have the required steam generation
capacity to maintain the specified level
of humidity.
4. Demonstrate a Marine-grade and
designed to withstand ship’s motions
5. Fit within the required space.
Failure to meet any of these technical
requirements would have severe
negative consequences for the project.
This includes potential nonperformance
of the HVAC system and the resulting
impacts on human health. It also
includes significant added program cost
if replacement is required during
operations, or if additional space and
weight allowances are needed to
accommodate non-marine equipment.
Given the availability of the steam
generators for shore-side commercial
applications as described below, the two
most important factors quickly became
the ability to operate at sea with the
ship in motion (heave, pitch, and roll)
and for the unit to fit within the
available space. If system components
are not specifically designed for use on
a moving platform they can operate
improperly and therefore not meet
specification requirements, wear out
pre-maturely and require more frequent
replacement, or completely malfunction
and become a warranty or major redesign issue. Most HVAC components
designed for stationary applications
ashore simply cannot be used on board
ships. Most vendors recognize this and
will not accept the risk of installing
their systems unless they have
experience with marine applications.
The cost of the six steam generators
required for the design is relatively low
($15,000). If non-compliant units were
initially installed, the cost to re-design
the system and re-install proper marine
units after the compartments are closed
and the vessel delivered would likely
result in additional costs that exceed the
