The following have been modified:

52.225-21 REQUIRED USE OF AMERICAN IRON, STEEL, AND OTHER MANUFACTURED GOODS—

BUY AMERICAN ACT—CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS (MAR 2009)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause—

Construction material means an article, material, or supply brought to the construction site by the Contractor or a subcontractor for incorporation into the building or work. The term also includes an item brought to the site preassembled from articles, materials, or supplies. However, emergency life safety systems, such as emergency lighting, fire alarm, and audio evacuation systems, that are discrete systems incorporated into a public building or work and that are produced as complete systems, are evaluated as a single and distinct construction material regardless of when or how the individual parts or components of those systems are delivered to the construction site.

Materials purchased directly by the Government are supplies, not construction material.

Domestic construction material means—

(1) An unmanufactured construction material mined or produced in the United States; or

(2) A construction material manufactured in the United States.

Foreign construction material means a construction material other than a domestic construction material.

Manufactured construction material means any construction material that is not unmanufactured construction material.

Steel means an alloy that includes at least 50 percent iron, between .02 and 2 percent carbon, and may include other elements.

United States means the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and outlying areas.

Unmanufactured construction material means raw material brought to the construction site for incorporation into the building or work that has not been—

(1) Processed into a specific form and shape; or

(2) Combined with other raw material to create a material that has different properties than the properties of the individual raw materials.

(b) Domestic preference.

(1) This clause implements—

(i) Section 1605 of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act) (Pub. L. 111-5), by requiring, unless an exception applies, that all iron, steel, and other manufactured goods used as construction material in the project are produced in the United States; and

(ii) The Buy American Act (41 U.S.C. 10a - 10d) by providing a preference for unmanufactured domestic construction material.

(2) The Contractor shall use only domestic construction material in performing this contract, except as provided in paragraph (b)(3) and (b)(4) of this clause.

(3) This requirement does not apply to the construction material or components listed by the Government as follows:

______________ NONE____________________________

(4) The Contracting Officer may add other foreign construction material to the list in paragraph (b)(3) of this clause if the Government determines that—

(i) The cost of domestic construction material would be unreasonable.

(A) The cost of domestic iron, steel, or other manufactured goods used as construction material is unreasonable when the cumulative cost of such material will increase the cost of the contract by more than 25 percent;

(B) The cost of unmanufactured construction material is unreasonable when the cost of such material exceeds the cost of foreign material by more than 6 percent;

(ii) The construction material is not mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available quantities and of a satisfactory quality; or

(iii) The application of the restriction of section 1605 of the Recovery Act or the Buy American Act to a particular construction material would be inconsistent with the public interest.

(c) Request for determination of inapplicability of Section 1605 of the Recovery Act or the Buy American Act.

(1)(i) Any Contractor request to use foreign construction material in accordance with paragraph (b)(4) of this clause shall include adequate information for Government evaluation of the request, including—

(A) A description of the foreign and domestic construction materials;

(B) Unit of measure;

(C) Quantity;

(D) Cost;

(E) Time of delivery or availability;

(F) Location of the construction project;

(G) Name and address of the proposed supplier; and

(H) A detailed justification of the reason for use of foreign construction materials cited in accordance with paragraph (b)(4) of this clause.

(ii) A request based on unreasonable cost shall include a reasonable survey of the market and a completed cost comparison table in the format in paragraph (d) of this clause.

(iii) The cost of construction material shall include all delivery costs to the construction site and any applicable duty.

(iv) Any Contractor request for a determination submitted after contract award shall explain why the Contractor could not reasonably foresee the need for such determination and could not have requested the determination before contract award. If the Contractor does not submit a satisfactory explanation, the Contracting Officer need not make a determination.

(2) If the Government determines after contract award that an exception to section 1605 of the Recovery Act or the Buy American Act applies and the Contracting Officer and the Contractor negotiate adequate consideration, the Contracting Officer will modify the contract to allow use of the foreign construction material. However, when the basis for the exception is the unreasonable cost of a domestic construction material, adequate consideration is not less than the differential established in paragraph (b)(4)(i) of this clause.

(3) Unless the Government determines that an exception to section 1605 of the Recovery Act or the Buy American Act applies, use of foreign construction material is noncompliant with section 1605 of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act or the Buy American Act.

(d) Data. To permit evaluation of requests under paragraph (c) of this clause based on unreasonable cost, the Contractor shall include the following information and any applicable supporting data based on the survey of suppliers:

Foreign and Domestic Construction Materials Cost Comparison

Construction Material Unit of Quantity Cost (Dollars)* Description Measure

Item 1:

1.2 AIR EMISSIONS CONSULTANT (AEC)

The Contractor shall retain an independent firm having a minimum of 3 years of experience in calculating air emissions for equipment in the utility, process, construction or manufacturing industries to assist the Contractor in fulfilling the requirements of this section.

1.3 NOx EMISSIONS LIMIT

a. The Contractor shall not adversely affect the attainment plans established by the States of New York and New Jersey. The Government has allocated Air Quality Units for this contract; therefore the Contractor is limited to the following allowable NOx emissions per calendar year unless the Contractor is able to obtain additional Air Quality Units at its own expense.

Allocated Air Quality Units

(NOx Emissions Calendar Year Allowable Limit - Tons)

2010 20.2 2011 34.6

b. NOx emissions shall be calculated for all marine based equipment, with a maximum horsepower output of greater than or equal to 25, operated in the area as shown on the map at the end of this Section. Emissions from the following equipment, including their auxiliary engines, shall be calculated: dredges, tugs, scows, drill boats, survey boats, supply boats, crew boats, tenders and other water based equipment associated with the Contractor's dredging operation. Emissions shall be calculated for activities directly related to the performance of the contract.

c. The Contractor is responsible for ensuring that contract emissions do not exceed the calendar year Allocated Air Quality Units (NOx Emissions Allowable Limit - Tons) for NOx in a given calendar year. Once the Contractor reaches Allocated Air Quality Units (NOx Emissions Allowable

SECTION 01 13 55.00 18 Page 1

Limit - Tons) in a given calendar year, all water based equipment must cease operations for the remainder of the calendar year unless the Contractor is able to obtain additional Air Quality Units at its own expense. The Contractor will not be entitled to additional time or money in the event that the Contractor exhausts the Allocated Air Quality Units (NOx Emissions Allowable Limit - Tons) made available by the Government and must stop work.

d. The Government has developed an Air Emissions Calculator that must be used by the Bidder during the preparation of its bid to ensure that NOx emissions of all equipment associated with the contract are within the calendar year Allocated Air Quality Units (NOx Emissions Allowable Limit - Tons). The calculator may be downloaded from fedteds.gov web site with the plans and specs.

1.4 AIR EMISSIONS SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS

1.4.1 The Contractor shall submit ten (10) copies of the following information within Five (5) calendar days of being notified of being the apparent low bidder.

A. The qualifications of the Contractor's Air Emissions Consultant (AEC).

Operating hours are those hours that the diesel engine is actually running or operating (not the total time spent onsite) and will be entered for each month of work. Each engine shall be entered on a separate line. Data is only entered on this worksheet; no entries are to be made on the Emission

SECTION 01 13 55.00 18 Page 2

Summary worksheet.

If an emission control technology such as a fuel emulsion or a catalytic converter is used, or will be used, to reduce NOx emissions, there is a column on the worksheet, entitled NOx Control Method, to incorporate the reduction that the technology is recognized to achieve. The NOx emission control systems effectiveness must be approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

This worksheet also calculates the estimated emissions from the equipment information entered.

The Emission Summary worksheet presents the emission estimates by year.

This worksheet is provided to help the Contractor adjust the technology or timing of their dredging operations to ensure that the estimated NOx emissions do not exceed the Allocated Air Quality Units in a given calendar year, thereby indicating whether the projected emissions are at an acceptable level.
