that none of the funds appropriated or 

made available by the Recovery Act may 

be used for a project for the 

construction, alteration, maintenance, or 

repair of a public building or public 

work unless all of the iron, steel, and 

manufactured goods used in the project 

are produced in the United States. 

Section 1605(b) provides that the Buy 

American requirement shall not apply 

in any case or category in which the 

head of a Federal department or agency 

finds that: (1) Applying the Buy 

American requirement would be 

inconsistent with the public interest; (2) 

iron, steel, and the relevant 

manufactured goods are not produced in 

the U.S. in sufficient and reasonably 

available quantities or of satisfactory 

quality, or (3) inclusion of iron, steel, 

and manufactured goods will increase 

the cost of the overall project by more 

than 25 percent. Section 1605(c) 

provides that if the head of a Federal 

department or agency makes a 

determination pursuant to section 

1605(b), the head of the department or 

agency shall publish a detailed written 

justification in the Federal Register. 

In accordance with section 1605(c) of 

the Recovery Act and OMB’s 

implementing guidance published on 

April 23, 2009 (74 FR 18449), this notice 

advises the public that, on March 11, 

2011, upon request of the Mankato 

Economic Development Authority, HUD 

granted an exception to applicability of 

the Buy American requirements with

was granted by HUD on the basis that 

the relevant manufactured goods (ADAcompliant water closets) are not 

produced in the U.S. in sufficient and 

reasonably available quantities or of 

satisfactory quality.
