21-Attachment EE - Final Build America, Buy America (BABA) Certification.pdf

This is a Build America, Buy America (BABA) Certification document for the Harris County Flood Control District's South Mayde Creek Bypass Channel and Stormwater Detention Basin project in Texas. The certification affirms compliance with BABA requirements, which mandate that iron, steel, and manufactured products used in infrastructure projects funded with federal assistance meet domestic content standards. The document certifies that materials and products incorporated into the project comply with these federal procurement requirements, ensuring that a requisite percentage of component materials originate from domestic sources.

The BABA certification serves as documentation of the project's adherence to federal funding guidelines, particularly relevant for projects receiving infrastructure investment through federal programs. This certification is essential for maintaining eligibility for federal funding and demonstrates the contractor's and project stakeholders' commitment to supporting domestic manufacturing and procurement standards. The document functions as a compliance verification tool that must be submitted as part of the project's administrative and contractual documentation to satisfy federal oversight requirements for infrastructure projects.
