Buy America Guidance for Utility Relocations

To assist local agencies with Buy America compliance on utility relocations, additional guidance has been developed by Caltrans to supplement FHWA California Division’s guidance from July 12, 2013:

• Implementation Guidelines: Provides clarification and definitions of Buy America requirements for utility relocations.
• Material Certification Guidelines: Provides two certification methods for demonstrating Buy America compliance for utility relocations.

For additional information, here’s a copy of the announcement sent to transportation partners and a link to the recently developed Caltrans Buy America webpage.
