Background
The FHWA’s Buy America policy in
23 CFR 635.410 requires a domestic
manufacturing process for any steel or
iron products (including protective
coatings) that are permanently
incorporated in a Federal-aid
construction project. The regulation also
provides for a waiver of the Buy
America requirements when the
application would be inconsistent with
the public interest or when satisfactory
quality domestic steel and iron products
are not sufficiently available. This
notice provides information regarding
FHWA’s finding that a Buy America
waiver is appropriate for use of nondomestic Ship-to-Shore Container
Gantry Cranes to accommodate Ultra
Large Container Vessels at the Port of
Newark Container Terminal in the State
of New Jersey.
In accordance with the Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2016 (Pub. L. 114–
113) and the Continuing Appropriations
Act, 2017 (Pub. L. 114–223), FHWA
published a notice of intent to issue a
waiver on its Web site: http://
www.fhwa.dot.gov/construction/
contracts/waivers.cfm?id=134 on
September 20th. The FHWA received
three comments in response to the
publication. The commenters provided
general comments on Buy America with
no specific information regarding
domestic sources for Ship-to-Shore
Container Gantry Cranes. Based on all
the information available to the agency,
FHWA concludes that there are no
domestic manufacturers of Ship-toShore Container Gantry Cranes to

accommodate Ultra Large Container
Vessels at the Port of Newark Container
Terminal.
The New Jersey State DOT,
contractors, and subcontractors
involved in the procurement of ship-toshore container gantry cranes, are
reminded of the need to comply with
the Cargo Preference Act in 46 CFR part
38, if applicable.
In accordance with the provisions of
section 117 of the SAFETEA–LU
Technical Corrections Act of 2008 (Pub.
L. 110–244, 122 Stat. 1572), FHWA is
providing this notice as its finding that
