SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the 

authority of the Recovery Act, Public 

Law 111–5, section 1605(b)(2), the head 

of a Federal department or agency may 

issue a ‘‘determination of 

inapplicability’’ (a waiver of the Buy 

American provision) if the iron, steel, or 

relevant manufactured good is not 

produced or manufactured in the United 

States in sufficient and reasonably 

available quantities and of a satisfactory 

quality (‘‘nonavailability’’). On 

September 17, 2010, the authority of the 

Secretary of Energy to make all 

inapplicability determinations was 

delegated to the Assistant Secretary for 

Energy Efficiency and Renewable 

Energy (EERE), for EERE projects under 

the Recovery Act. Pursuant to this 

delegation the Assistant Secretary, 

EERE, has concluded that (1) surface 

mounting time switches with 24-hour 

program dials and single-pole-doublethrow switches; (2) HVAC units with 

8.375′ W × 9.5′ H × 2.72′ D—Only when 

the application requires an HVAC unit 

with a height of 10′ or less due to 

documented space constraints; and (3) 

low temperature thermostats with a 

temperature range of 15–55 degrees 

Fahrenheit and manual reset; (4) 

Programmable DDC controllers for LON 

protocol, where an existing LON system 

exists that will not interface with other 

protocols without the input of extensive 

time and expense equal to or greater 

than the cost of the controllers 

themselves; and (5) Hardware necessary 

for implementation of Honeywell 

Enterprise Buildings Integrator (EBI) 

software for integration of water 

management and HVAC systems 

including: Customized Dell PowerEdge 

T610 Computer Server; Honeywell 

XL50UMMIPC–CBLON; Echelon LPR– 

10 #42100R; Sloan—MCR231–D; 

Sloan—MCR140A, that will be used on 

eligible EERE-Recovery Act funded 

projects qualify for the ‘‘nonavailability’’ 

waiver determination. 

EERE has developed a robust process 

to ascertain in a systematic and 

expedient manner whether or not there 

is domestic manufacturing capacity for 

the items submitted for a waiver of the 

Recovery Act Buy American provision. 

This process involves a close 

collaboration with the United States 

Department of Commerce National 

Institute of Standards and Technology 

(NIST) Manufacturing Extension 

Partnership (MEP), in order to scour the 

domestic manufacturing landscape in 

search of producers before making any 

nonavailability determination. 

The NIST MEP has 59 regional centers 

with substantial knowledge of, and 

connections to, the domestic 

manufacturing sector. MEP uses their 

regional centers to ‘‘scout’’ for current or 

potential manufacturers of the 

product(s) submitted in a waiver 

request. In the course of this interagency 

collaboration, MEP has been able to find 

exact or partial matches for 

manufactured goods that EERE grantees 

had been unable to locate. As a result, 

in those cases, EERE was able to work 

with the grantees to procure Americanmade products rather than granting a 

waiver. 

Upon receipt of completed waiver 

requests for the five products in the 

current waiver, EERE reviewed the 

information provided and submitted the 

relevant technical information to the 

NIST MEP. The MEP then used their 

network of nationwide centers to scout 

for domestic manufacturers. The NIST 

MEP reported that their scouting 

process did not locate any domestic 

manufacturers for these exact or 

equivalent items. 

In addition to the MEP collaboration 

outlined above, the EERE Buy American 

Coordinator worked with labor unions, 

trade associations and other 

manufacturing stakeholders to scout for 

domestic manufacturing capacity or an 

equivalent product for each item 

contained in this waiver. EERE also 

conducted significant amounts of 

independent research to supplement 

MEP’s scouting efforts, including 

utilizing the solar experts employed by 

the Department of Energy’s National 

Renewable Energy Laboratory. EERE’s 

research efforts confirmed the MEP 

findings that the goods included in this 

waiver are not produced in the United 

States in sufficient and reasonably 

available quantities and of a satisfactory 

quality. 

The nonavailability determination is 

also informed by the inquiries and 

petitions to EERE from recipients of 

EERE Recovery Act funds, and from 

suppliers, distributors, retailers and 

trade associations—all stating that their 

individual efforts to locate domestic 

manufacturers have been unsuccessful. 

Having established a proper 

justification based on domestic 

nonavailability, EERE hereby provides 

notice that on November 10, 2010, five 

nationwide categorical waivers of 

section 1605 of the Recovery Act were 

issued as detailed supra. This notice 

constitutes the detailed written 

justification required by Section 1605(c) 

for waivers based on a finding under 

subsection (b). 

This waiver determination is pursuant 

to the delegation of authority by the 

Secretary of Energy to the Assistant 

Secretary for Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy with respect to 

expenditures within the purview of her 

responsibility. Consequently, this 

waiver applies to EERE projects carried 

out under the Recovery Act. 

Authority: Pub. L. 111–5, section 1605. 

Issued in Washington, DC on November 5, 

2010. 

Cathy Zoi, 

Assistant Secretary, Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy, U.S. Department of 

Energy.

Pursuant to 40 CFR 1506.9. 

Notice 

In accordance with Section 309(a) of 

the Clean Air Act, EPA is required to 

make its comments on EISs issued by 

other Federal agencies public. 

Historically, EPA has met this mandate 

by publishing weekly notices of 

availability of EPA comments, which 

includes a brief summary of EPA’s 

comment letters, in the Federal 

Register. Since February 2008, EPA has 

been including its comment letters on 

EISs on its Web site at: http:// 

www.epa.gov/compliance/nepa/ 

eisdata.html. Including the entire EIS 

comment letters on the Web site 

satisfies the Section 309(a) requirement 

to make EPA’s comments on EISs 

available to the public. Accordingly, on 

March 31, 2010, EPA discontinued the 

publication of the notice of availability 

of EPA comments in the Federal 

Register.
