Abstract
The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) is issuing a waiver of its Buy America requirements to the Alabama State Port Authority (ASPA) for two rubber-tired gantry cranes for use in the Rail Expansion, Rehabilitation, and Modernization Project--Montgomery Intermodal Container Transfer Facility (Project). The Project received funds under the Fiscal Year 2022 Consolidated Rail Infrastructure and Safety Improvements (CRISI) program; therefore, FRA's Buy America requirements apply to the Project. The final waiver will apply to two rubber-tired gantry cranes based on the domestic nonavailability of the cranes. The final waiver will not apply to any construction materials, and therefore, FRA is not waiving any applicable requirements under the Build America, Buy America Act (BABA). A substantively identical Notice was placed on public inspection on January 21, 2025, but withdrawn before publication.
