Notice per OMB Memoranda 22-08: Identification of Federal
Financial Assistance Infrastructure Programs Subject to the Build
America, Buy America Provisions of the Infrastructure Investment and
Jobs Act
AGENCY: National Foundation for the Arts and Humanities; National
Endowment for the Arts.
ACTION: Notice of report.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Per the ``Build America, Buy America Act'' (the ``Act''),
federal entities are required to provide OMB and Congress a report
listing all Federal financial assistance programs for infrastructure
administered by the agency. This report is required to be published in
the Federal Register. The NEA has no programs for infrastructure within
the definition of the Act.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Brenna Berger, Director of Grants,
National Endowment for the Arts, 400 7th St. SW, Washington, DC 20506,
Telephone: 202-682-5400.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 15, 2021, President Biden signed
into law the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), which
includes the ``Build America, Buy America Act'' (the Act). This Act
ensures that Federal infrastructure programs require the use of
materials produced in the United States, increases
[[Page 2943]]
the requirement for American-made content, and strengthens the waiver
process associated with Buy American provisions.
The Act requires that within 60 days of its enactment, each agency
must submit to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and Congress a
report (``60-day report'') listing all Federal financial assistance
programs for infrastructure administered by the agency. In these 60-day
reports, agencies are required to identify and provide a list of which
of these programs are ``deficient,'' as defined in the Act. 3 These
agency reports must also be published in the Federal Register.
The NEA has reviewed its Federal financial assistance programs and
has determined that it does not administer any financial assistance
programs for infrastructure as defined under the Act. Nor were any
deficient programs, as defined under the Act, identified. This
information has been reported to Congress and OMB as required by the
Act.
Authority: 20 U.S.C. 959; Pub. L. 117-58 70913(a)(2).
