projects.

For each contract for climate change adaptive infrastructure projects,

funded in part or in whole from the climate change adaptation fund

established pursuant to section ninety-seven-m of the state finance law,

by a public entity, or a third party acting on behalf and for the

benefit of a public entity, the "public work" for the purposes of this

subdivision shall ensure that such contract shall contain a provision

contract or any subcontract thereto, shall be produced or made in whole

or substantial part in the United States, its territories or

possessions. In the case of an iron or steel product all manufacturing

must take place in the United States, from the initial melting stage

through the application of coatings, except metallurgical processes

involving the refinement of steel additives.
