Appendices PO 00000 Frm 00125 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 34487 I. Overview The FTA’s objective in implementing 49 CFR part 661 (Buy America Requirements) and 49 CFR part 663 (Pre-Award and Post-Delivery Audits of Rolling Stock Purchases) is to support and promote the United States (U.S.) manufacturing industry and U.S. jobs. As guidance on the pre-award and postdelivery audit requirements for rolling stock procurements, FTA published two separate Buy America handbooks in May 1995—i.e., one for rail vehicle procurements and one for bus procurements. Over the past three years, FTA has conducted Buy America Compliance Reviews, where they observed and monitored the pre-award and postdelivery audit processes for fourteen capital grants. One primary finding was that FTA should provide more guidance and clarity on conducting pre-award and post-delivery Buy America audits required in FTA’s Buy America regulations (49 CFR parts 661 and 663). The FTA is proposing to publish a new Buy America handbook, entitled Conducting Pre-Award and PostDelivery Audits for Rolling Stock Procurements (Handbook), which would replace FTA’s two Buy America handbooks on this subject from 1995. The proposed Handbook would apply comprehensively to rolling stock procurements that are subject to the preaward and post-delivery audit requirements set forth in 49 CFR part 663. This notice provides a section-bysection summary of the proposed Handbook. The proposed Handbook itself is not included in this notice; instead, an electronic version may be found on FTA’s Web site, at www.fta.dot.gov, and in the docket, at www.regulations.gov. Paper copies of the proposed Handbook may be obtained by contacting FTA’s Administrative Services Help Desk at (202) 366–4865. The FTA seeks comment on the proposed Handbook. II. Section-by-Section Summary A. Section 1—Introduction Section 1 of the proposed Handbook is an introductory chapter that provides a brief overview of the pre-award and post-delivery audit requirements set forth in 49 CFR parts 661 and 663, summarizes the contents of each subsequent section, and includes lists of relevant legal references, definitions, and acronyms. This section states that the purpose of the proposed Handbook is to assist E:\FR\FM\16JNN1.SGM 16JNN1
