BUY AMERICAN" CLAUSE i. Overview: • The Buy American clause of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) requires, unless an exception applies; that all of the iron, steel, and manufactured goods* used in the construction, alteration, maintenance, or repair of a public building or public works project are produced in the United States. All projects must provide a preference for unmanufactured domestic construction material. *Manufactured good means a good brought to the construction site for incorporation into the building or work that has been- (i) Processed into a specific form and shape; or (ii) Combined with other raw material to create a material that has different properties than the properties of the individual raw materials. • Public recipients of the NYSERDA ARRA funds must comply with the Buy American clause unless a specific exception applies. These recipients would include municipalities, public universities, public K-12 schools or BOCES, and public hospitals. The Buy American clause does not apply to facilities owned by private hospitals or not-for-profit entities. • It has been determined that if any part of a public project receives ARRA funds, the Buy American clause applies to the entire project, even if the ARRA funds are only used for certain portions of the project, unless those portions are separated by scope and cost within the contract. The Buy American terms are required to be part of every request for proposal or solicitation of bids and all contracts. • The Act requires "substantial transformation" of a product in the United States from component parts. A product will satisfy the qualifications of the clause if all of the components of the manufactured good are manufactured in the United States or all of the components were assembled into the final product in the United States. Alternatively, if there was a change in character or use of the finished good as a whole (not each individual component), facilitated in the United States, then that will satisfy the clause. Also, if there were processes performed in the United States (including but not limited to assembly) that were complex and meaningful, the Buy American Clause would be satisfied.
