Waiver: MEI BNA57/542 Banknote 

Validator 

Date Issued: October 20, 2006. Alex 

Litchfield, Sales Director, Transit and 

Parking, Mars Electronics International 

(MEI), 1301 Wilson Dr., West Chester, 

PA 19390. 

Re: Buy America Non-Availability 

Waiver for the MEI BNA57/542 

Banknote Validator 

Dear Mr. Litchfield: 

This letter responds to your April 26, 

2006, request for a Buy America nonavailability waiver for the Sodeco 

BNA57/542 Banknote Validator 

(‘‘BNA57/542’’), which is manufactured 

in Switzerland for use in ticket vending 

machines. 

The Buy America Act requires, with 

few exceptions, that all steel, iron and 

manufactured goods used in FTAfunded projects be produced in the 

United States. One such exception is 

that of non-availability—that in some 

instances steel, iron, and goods 

produced in the United States are not 

produced in the United States in 

sufficient and reasonably available 

quantities or are not of a satisfactory 

quality. Therefore, Congress authorized 

FTA to waive the above requirement 

and allow, based on non-availability, 

the use in an FTA-funded project of 

steel, iron or manufactured goods 

produced outside the United States. 

FTA verified non-availability of the 

BNA57/542 by publishing the following 

notice on its public Web site—http:// 

www.fta.dot.gov—and the Docket 

Management System Web site—

dms.dot.gov, Docket No. FTA–2006–

25883, and allowing 30 days for public 

comment: 

Mars Electronics International (‘‘MEI’’) has 

requested a component non-availability 

waiver for the Sodeco BNA57/542 Banknote 

Validator (‘‘BNA57/542’’), manufactured in 

Switzerland for use in ticket vending 

machines. The BNA 57/542 has the following 

features: 6, 13, 30 or 90 banknote types with 

4-way insertion, 2 second transaction time 

between notes, new banknotes programmable 

through network, 15 banknotes escrow. A 

datasheet describing the BNA57/542 can be 

accessed on MEI’s Web site at 

http://www.meiglobal.com. MEI asserts that 

the BNA57/542, or its functional equivalent, 

is not available from a U.S. source. If granted, 

this waiver would permit ticket vending 

machine manufacturers to install the BNA57/ 

542 and count it as domestic for purposes of 

Buy America compliance. 

Please note ‘‘MEI BNA57/542’’ in the 

subject line and submit comments by close 

of business October 20, 2006, to 

jayme.blakesley@dot.gov. For more 

information on Buy America, please see 49 

CFR 661.7(d) and 661.9(d). 

Thirty days have passed since 

publication of the above notice, and no 

party has indicated that a U.S. 

manufacturer produces banknote 

validators in sufficient and reasonably 

available quantities and of a satisfactory 

quality. Therefore, FTA hereby grants 

MEI a non-availability waiver for the 

BNA57/542 for a period of 2 years, or 

until such time as a domestic source for 

this type of unit becomes available, 

whichever occurs first. This waiver will 

permit ticket vending machine 

manufacturers to install the SA–595 and
