*Petroleum Definitions, as used in this Subpart.

(a) Crude oil means crude petroleum as it is produced at the wellhead and liquids (under atmospheric conditions) that have been recovered from mixtures of hydrocarbons which existed in a vaporous phase in a reservoir and that are not natural gas products.

(b) Finished products me ans any one or more of the following petroleum oils, or a mixture or combination of such oils, which are to be used without further processing except blending by mechanical means:

(i) liquefied gases-hydrocarbon gases recovered from natural gas or produced from petroleum refining and kept under pressure to maintain a liquid state at ambient temperatures;

(ii) gasoline-a refined petroleum distillate which by its composition, is suitable for use as a carburant in internal combustion engines;

FOREIGN PURCHASES

(iii) jet fuel-a refined petroleum distillate used to fuel jet propulsion engines;

(iv) naphtha-a refined petroleum distillate falling within a distillation range overlapping the higher gasoline and the lower kerosenes;

or

(v) fuel oil-a liquid or liquefiable petroleum product turned for lighting or for the generation of heat or power and derived directly indirectly from crude oil, such as kerosene, range oil, distillate fuel oils, gas oils, diesel fuel, topped crude oil, residues;

(vi) lubricating oil-a refined petroleum distillate or specially treated petroleum residue used to lessen friction between surfaces;

(vii) residual fuel oil-a topped crude oil or viscous residuum which, as obtained in refining or after blending with other fuel oil, meets or is the equivalent of Military Specification Mil-F-859 for Navy Special Fuel Oil and any other more viscous fuel oil, such as No. 5 or Bunker C; (viii) asphalt-a solid semi-soild cementitious material which gradually liquefies when heated, in which the predominating constituents are bitumins, and which is obtained in refining crude oil;

(ix) natural gas products-liquids (under atmospheric conditions), including natural gasoline, which are recovered by a process of absorption, compression, refrigeration, cyclying, or a combination of such processes, from mixtures of hydrocarbons that existed in a vaporous phase in a reservoir and which, when recovered and without processing in a refinery, otherwise fall within definitions of products contained in (ii) (v), inclusive, of this paragraph (b).

Subpart 2-Buy American Act-Construction Contracts

6.200 Scope of Subpart. This Subpart implements the Buy American Act (41 U.S.C. 10a-d) and the policies set forth in Executive Order 10582, dated December 17, 1954, with respect to construction contracts.

6.201 Definitions. As used in this Subpart, the following terms have the meanings set forth below.

6.201-1 Construction means construction, alteration, or repair of any public building or public work in the United States.

6.201-2 Construction materials means articles, materials, and supplies which are brought to the construction site for incorporation in the building or work.

6.201-3 Components means those articles, materials, and supplies which are directly incorporated in construction materials.

6.201-4 United States means the States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, the Canal Zone, the Virgin Islands, Guam, and any areas subject to the complete sovereignty of the United States.

6.201-5 Domestic construction material means an unmanufactured construction material which has been mined or produced in the United States, or a manufactured construction material which has been manufactured in the United States if the cost of its components which are mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States exceeds 50 percent of the cost of all its components. A component shall be considered to have been mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States (regardless of its source in fact) if the construction material in which it is incorporated is manufactured in the United States and the component is of a class or kind determined by the Government to be not mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available commercial quantities and of a satisfactory quality.

6.201-6 Nondomestic construction material means a construction material other than a domestic construction material.

6.202 Statutory Requirements. Except as provided in 6.203, the Buy American Act requires that in the performance of contracts for construction, only domestic construction materials shall be used. In determining whether construction material is domestic construction material, only the construction material and its components shall be considered. 6.203 Exceptions.

6.203-1 Nonavailability in the United States.

(a) The Buy American Act does not apply to articles, materials, or supplies of a class or kind which the Government has determined are not mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available commercial quantities and of a satisfactory quality (see 6.206).

(b) The authority to make additional determinations of nonavailability, is described in 6.103-2(b).

(c) The format for nonavailability determinations is set forth in 6.1032(c).

6.203-2 Unreasonable Costs or Impracticability. The restrictions of the Buy American Act do not apply when it is determined by the Administrator that the use of a particular domestic construction material would (i) unreasonably increase the cost, or (ii) be impracticable (see 6.204-3). 6.204 Procedures.

6.201-1 Applicability. The procedures in this paragraph 6.204 apply to all contracts for construction in the United States, except contracts executed on Standard Form 19.
