Abstract
MAP-21 made significant changes to utility relocations as a result of a transportation improvement project. The nuances of the MAP- 21 changes will be explored and discussed and the Buy America requirements as modified by MAP-21 for steel and iron products used on federally funded projects will be explored. It is anticipated that attendees will leave with a better understanding of how Buy America requirements apply to utility relocations. This will help them to better understand what actions they may need to take to ensure federal compliance and eligibility.
