ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Regional Administrator 

of EPA Region 6 is hereby granting a 

project waiver of the Buy American 

requirements of ARRA Section 1605 

under the authority of Section 

1605(b)(2) [manufactured goods are not 

produced in the United States in 

sufficient and reasonably available

to the City of Austin (‘‘the City’’) for the 

purchase of ten (10) vertical linear 

motion mixers for the Clean Water State 

Revolving Fund (CWSRF) Hornsby Bend 

Biosolids Management Plant (BMP) 

Digester Improvement and

vertical linear motion mixers are 

manufactured by foreign manufacturers 

and no United States manufacturer 

produces an alternative that meets the 

City’s technical specifications. This is a 

project specific waiver and only applies 

to the use of the specified product for 

the ARRA funded project being 

proposed. Any other ARRA project that 

may wish to use the same product must 

apply for a separate waiver based on the 

specific project circumstances. The 

Regional Administrator is making this 

determination based on the review and 

recommendations of the EPA Region 6, 

Water Quality Protection Division. The 

City has provided sufficient 

documentation to support its request.
