h. Engineered wood including all manufacturing processes from the initial 31 combination of constituent materials until the wood product is in its final form. 32 If a Construction Material is not manufactured in the United States it shall be 34 considered a Foreign Construction Material. 35

2. Excluded Material: A material where Buy America requirements do not apply. This 37 includes the following: 38

a. Materials excluded by Section 70917(c) of the Buy America, Build America Act 40 with respect to aggregates this includes cement and cementitious materials, 41 aggregates such as stone, sand, or gravel or aggregate binding agents or 42 additives. These materials shall be classified as excluded materials based on 43 the composition when brought to the work site. It also includes combinations of 44 these excluded materials when mixtures of Excluded Materials are delivered to 45 the work site without final form for incorporation into the project (i.e. wet concrete 46 and HMA). If they are formed prior to delivery, they are a Manufactured Product 47 and not an Excluded Material. 48

b. Temporary materials that are not being permanently incorporated into the 50 project. 51

HFST

26C511 11

c. Raw or minimal processed materials where the article, material, or supply does 1 not fall into any of the categories, as it is not a Manufactured Product, an Iron or 2 Steel Product, or a Construction Material and when these materials are 3 delivered to the work site without final form for incorporation into the product (i.e. 4 seed mix and topsoil). If they are formed prior to delivery, and are not an Iron or 5 Steel Product or a Construction Material, they are a Manufactured Product and 6 not an Excluded Material. 7

3. Iron or Steel Product: An article, material, or supply that consist of wholly or 9 predominantly of iron or steel or a combination of both. To be considered 10 predominantly of iron or steel or a combination of both means that the cost of the iron 11 and steel content exceeds 50 percent of the total cost of all its components. The 12 cost of iron and steel is based on a good faith estimate of the cost of the iron or steel 13 components. 14

4. Manufactured Product: A Manufactured Product includes any item produced as a 16 result of the manufacturing process. Items that should be treated as a manufactured 17 product (rather than a construction material) are: 1) items that consist of two or more 18 of the listed construction materials that have been combined together through a 19 manufacturing process, and 2) items that include at least one of the listed 20 construction materials as defined above, combined with a material that is not listed 21 through a manufacturing process. 22

If a product is not an Iron or Steel Product, a Construction Material, or an Excluded 24

Material, it is a Manufactured Product. 25 If a Manufactured Material is not manufactured in the United States, it shall be 27 considered a Foreign Manufactured Product. 28

5. United States: To further define the coverage, a domestic product is a manufactured 30 steel construction material that was produced in one of the 50 states, the District of 31 Columbia, Puerto Rico, or in the territories and possessions of the United States. 32

Iron or Steel Product Requirements 34 Iron or Steel Products that are permanently incorporated into the project shall consist of 35 American-made materials only. Buy America requirements do not apply to temporary steel 36 or iron items, e.g., temporary sheet piling, temporary bridges, steel scaffolding and 37 falsework. 38 Minor amounts of foreign steel and iron may be utilized in this project provided the cost 40 of the foreign material used does not exceed one-tenth of one percent of the total contract 41 cost or $2,500.00, whichever is greater. 42 American-made material is defined as material having all manufacturing processes 44 occurring domestically. 45 If domestically produced steel billets or iron ingots are exported outside of the United 47 States, as defined above, for any manufacturing process then the resulting product does 48 not conform to the Buy America requirements. Additionally, products manufactured 49 domestically from foreign source steel billets or iron ingots do not conform to the Buy 50 America requirements because the initial melting and mixing of alloys to create the 51 material occurred in a foreign country. 52

HFST

26C511 12

Manufacturing begins with the initial melting and mixing and continues through the coating 2 stage. Any process which modifies the chemical content, the physical size or shape, or 3 the final finish is considered a manufacturing process. The processes include rolling, 4 extruding, machining, bending, grinding, drilling, welding, and coating. The action of 5 applying a coating to steel or iron is deemed a manufacturing process. Coating includes 6 epoxy coating, galvanizing, aluminizing, painting, and any other coating that protects or 7 enhances the value of steel or iron. Any process from the original reduction from ore to 8 the finished product constitutes a manufacturing process for iron. 9 Due to a nationwide waiver, Buy America requirements do not apply to raw materials (iron 11 ore and alloys), scrap (recycled steel or iron), and pig iron ore processed, pelletized, and 12 reduced iron ore. 13 The following are considered to be steel manufacturing processes: 15

1. Production of steel by any of the following processes: 17

a. Open hearth furnace. 19

b. Basic oxygen. 21

c. Electric furnace. 23

d. Direct reduction. 25

2. Rolling, heat treating, and any other similar processing. 27

3. Fabrication of the products: 29

a. Spinning wire into cable or strand. 31

b. Corrugating and rolling into culverts. 33

c. Shop fabrication. 35

A certification of materials origin will be required for all iron or steel products prior to such 37 items being incorporated into the permanent work. The Contractor will not receive 38 payment until the certification is received by the Engineer. The certification shall be on 39 WSDOT Form 350-109 provided by the Engineer, or such other form approved by the 40 Contracting Agency, provided it contains the same information as WSDOT Form 350-109. 41 Manufactured Products and Construction Material Requirements 43 A Contractor provided certification of materials origin will be required before each 44 progress estimate or payment. The Contractor will not receive payment until the 45 certification is received by the Engineer. The Contractor shall certify that all Manufactured 46 Products and all Construction Materials installed during the current progress estimate 47 period meet the Buy America requirements. The certification shall be on WSDOT Form 48 350-108 provided by the Engineer, or such other form approved by the Contracting 49 Agency, provided it contains the same information as WSDOT Form 350-108. 50
