• Abstract:
  In Section 1518 of the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), Congress amended existing law to broaden the applicability of Buy America to non FHWA-funded utility relocations. For FHWA-funded projects, Buy America now applies to all contracts within the scope of a National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) determination and eligible for assistance under title 23, United States Code, so long as one such contract is funded by FHWA. That is, if a project receives FHWA funding for any development or construction activities, including NEPA studies, right-of-way acquisition, preliminary engineering, or construction, Buy America applies to all contracts within the scope of the NEPA determination regardless of whether the contract uses FHWA funding.
