69928 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 225 / Thursday, November 21, 2013 / Notices 

Construction, and Maintenance of SkidResistant Airport Pavement Surfaces to 

submit a qualifications statement for the 

system for which they have received 

FAA approval. The detailed instructions 

for submitting the qualifications 

statement, including forms, may be 

found on the FAA Web site at: 

https://www.faa.gov/airports/aip/buy_

american/ at the tab entitled, 

Continuous Friction Measurement 

Equipment Request for Qualifications. 

The FAA wants to determine if there 

is sufficient quantity of FAA-approved 

domestic manufacturers capable of 

meeting the FAA technical 

requirements. If the FAA cannot find 

that there are a sufficient number of 

USA manufacturers, it will issue a 

nationwide waiver to the FAA approved 

foreign manufacturers. 

Technical Requirements: The CFME 

must have FAA approval indicating that 

the CFME meets the technical 

requirements listed in FAA Advisory 

Circular (AC) 150/5320–12C, 

Measurement, Construction, and 

Maintenance of Skid-Resistant Airport 

Pavement Surfaces. FAA approval is 

indicated by inclusion in Appendix 4 of 

the AC. After review, the FAA may 

issue a nationwide waiver to Buy 

American Preferences for foreign 

manufacturers or United States 

manufacturers that do not meet the Buy 

American Preference requirements. 

Waivers will not be issued for 

manufacturers that do not fully meet the 

technical requirements. This 

‘‘nationwide waiver’’ allows CFME to be 

used on AIP projects without having to 

receive separate project waivers. Having 

a nationwide waiver allows projects to 

start quickly without having to wait for 

the Buy American analysis to be 

completed for every project, while still 

assuring the funds used for airport 

projects under the Act are being 

directed to U.S. manufacturers. 

Items that have been granted a 

‘‘nationwide waiver’’ can be found on 

the FAA Web site at: https://

www.faa.gov/airports/aip/buy_

american/ at the tab entitled, National 

Buy American Waivers Issued.
