| 2012-2904 | Notice of a Project Waiver of the Buy American Requirement of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) to the City of Austin, TX | Notice | The Regional Administrator of EPA Region 6 is hereby granting a project waiver of the Buy American requirements of ARRA Section 1605 under the authority of Section 1605(b)(2) [manufactured goods are not produced in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available quantities and of a satisfactory quality] to the City of Austin ("the City") for the purchase of ten (10) vertical linear motion mixers for the Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) Hornsby Bend Biosolids Management Plant (BMP) Digester Improvement and Sustainability Project. The required vertical linear motion mixers are manufactured by foreign manufacturers and no United States manufacturer produces an alternative that meets the City's technical specifications. This is a project specific waiver and only applies to the use of the specified product for the ARRA funded project being proposed. Any other ARRA project that may wish to use the same product must apply for a separate waiver based on the specific project circumstances. The Regional Administrator is making this determination based on the review and recommendations of the EPA Region 6, Water Quality Protection Division. The City has provided sufficient documentation to support its request. The Assistant Administrator of the EPA's Office of Administration and Resources Management has concurred on this decision to make an exception to Section 1605 of ARRA. This action permits the purchase of the selected vertical linear motion mixers not manufactured in America, for the proposed project being implemented by the City. | 2012-02-08 | 2012 | 2 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2012/02/08/2012-2904/notice-of-a-project-waiver-of-the-buy-american-requirement-of-the-american-recovery-and-reinvestment | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2012-02-08/pdf/2012-2904.pdf | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | The Regional Administrator of EPA Region 6 is hereby granting a project waiver of the Buy American requirements of ARRA Section 1605 under the authority of Section 1605(b)(2) [manufactured goods are not produced in the United States in sufficient and... |
