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'' (Act). The Act ensures
that Federal infrastructure programs require the use of materials
produced in the United States, increases 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, January 14, 2022, each federal agency must submit to the
Office of Management and Budget 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. These agency reports must also be
published in the Federal Register.
The DOC report satisfies the requirements of section 70913 of the
Act and is accessible at: <a href="https://www.commerce.gov/oam/policy/financial-assistance-policy">https://www.commerce.gov/oam/policy/financial-assistance-policy</a>.

Senior Procurement Executive and Director, Office of Acquisition
