Title: Processing Buy America and Buy American Waivers Based on Nonavailability 
Abstract:

This rule will establish the applicable regulatory standard for waivers from the Buy America requirement on the basis that a product or item is not manufactured in the United States, meeting the applicable Buy America requirement. This standard will require the use of items and products with the maximum known amount of domestic content. The rule will also establish the required information, which is expected to be consistent across the Department, that the applicants must provide in applying for such waivers.
