Abstract

Key Takeaways: The Build America, Buy America Act, or BABA, brought new domestic procurement requirements to US drinking water and wastewater systems that receive federal funding for infrastructure projects. To implement financial assistance programs and develop compliance guidelines, federal agencies take their cue from the US Office of Management and Budget's (OMB's) BABA interpretation and guidance. All stakeholders, including those in the water sector, will find compliance with BABA a smoother process if they take advantage of the guidance that is available from OMB and federal agencies.
