The application of the restriction of the Buy American statute to a particular construction material would be impracticable or inconsistent with the public interest; or

The construction material is not mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available commercial quantities of a satisfactory quality.

(c) Request for determination of inapplicability of the Buy American statute.

(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 description of the foreign and domestic construction materials;

Unit of measure;

Quantity;

Price;

Time of delivery or availability;

Location of the construction project;

W912PP20R0004

If the Government determines after contract award that an exception to the Buy American statute 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 price of a domestic construction material, adequate consideration is not less than the differential established in paragraph (b)(4)(i) of this clause.

Unless the Government determines that an exception to the Buy American statute applies, use of foreign construction material is noncompliant with the Buy American statute.

(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 Price Comparison

W912PP20R0004

(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.

If the Government determines after contract award that an exception to the Buy American statute 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 price of a domestic construction material, adequate consideration is not less than the differential established in paragraph (b)(3)(i) of this clause.

Unless the Government determines that an exception to the Buy American statute applies, use of foreign construction material is noncompliant with the Buy American statute.

(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:

Design, supply and installation of new electrical local and remote control system for the 4 existing hydraulically operated bonneted slide gates, including all appurtenances.

Design, fabrication, underwater installation and removal of a new, temporary isolation bulkhead to permit dewatering of the low level conduits in support of the construction and for future dewatering.

Demolition of a section of the two existing low level conduits for the addition of the new butterfly isolation valves and modifications to the existing valve vaults to suit.

Repainting of the full length a portion of the length of the two existing low level conduits and inspection of interior of existing cast iron segment of penstock, upstream of new butterfly valves.

Selective modification to a section of each of the two existing 96 in. steel conduits to incorporate a new thrust block structure for vertical and thrust support of the new isolation valves including excavation and encasement of a segment of the existing conduits and support of these modifications.

Repair of existing reinforced concrete paving slab under central dome at the powerhouse, damaged from construction activities and placement of new reinforced concrete paving slab over the remainder of the area under this dome.
