What You Need to Know: New Build America, Buy America Requirements for Federal Assistance

If you receive federal financial assistance (e.g., grants, loans) or supply products to cities, states, tribes, or non-profits that receive federal financial assistance, the new Build America, Buy America Act (BABA) requirements may apply to your transactions. Under BABA, any expenditure of federal funds for "infrastructure" must comply with these new domestic content requirements and "infrastructure" may include solid, hazardous, and recycling management. Join us to learn how this affects you.

After attending this session, participants will be able to: 

  • Discern when BABA might apply and understand compliance requirements. 

  • Identify the proper contacts, if questions arise. 

  • Understand how a particular product or supplier might comply with the requirements.
