specifications to indicate that
Greensand Plus be used for the project.
Ultimately the project specifications
were not modified after the pilot testing
showed Greensand Plus to be the
selected filter media for this project
because all of the project bids were
based on Greensand Plus.
Furthermore, the purpose of the
ARRA provisions was to stimulate
economic recovery by funding current
infrastructure construction, not to delay
projects that are already shovel ready by
requiring entities, like the City, to revise
their design and potentially choose a
more costly and less effective project.
The implementation of ARRA Buy
American requirements on such projects
eligible for DWSRF assistance would
result in unreasonable delay and thus
displace the ‘‘shovel ready’’ status for
this project. To further delay
construction is in direct conflict with
the most fundamental economic
purposes of ARRA to create or retain
jobs.
The Drinking Water Unit has
reviewed this waiver request and has
determined that the supporting
documentation provided by the City is
sufficient to meet the following 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:
wreier-aviles on DSKGBLS3C1PROD with NOTICES
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 City’s design
specifications. 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 assistance
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 manufacturer in the
United States, the City is hereby granted
a waiver from the Buy American
requirements of Section 1605(a) of
Public Law 111–5 for the purchase of
Greensand Plus pressure filter media,
manufactured in Brazil, for a shallow
aquifer water treatment plant project
