More detail
The federal housing department would have to accept records prepared under the named standard as sufficient proof of compliance. This applies to American-made content certifications for funding the housing department administers under the Build America, Buy America Act. Recipients could use other methods allowed by law. The department could also accept similar standards that allow certification records to be checked and audited. The named standard is NEMA 70901–2024 as it exists on enactment, or a later version the department approves.
