Public-Private Partnerships On The Rise
Client Alert | 1 min read | 04.22.09
In "Funding America's Infrastructure Needs: Public-Private Partnerships May Help Close Infrastructure Gap," in the March 2009 issue of Construction Briefings, Steve McBrady of C&M examines the increasing use of Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) in American infrastructure, as the federal government, states, and localities seek innovative mechanisms for upgrading and operating critical infrastructure. The recently passed American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, the Obama administration's proposal for a National Infrastructure Reinvestment Bank, and the upcoming Transportation Re-Authorization bill, will bolster these efforts and generate increased focus on the use of PPPs across the country.

On September 29, 2025, the U.S. Department of Commerce Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) announced a sweeping Interim Final Rule (IFR), (the “Affiliates Rule”) expanding which entities qualify as Entity List or Military End-User entities, thereby subjecting those entities to elevated export control restrictions under the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). U.S. export restrictions applicable to entities on the Entity List, Military End-User (MEU) List, and Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (SDN List) now apply to foreign affiliates that are, in the aggregate, owned 50% or more by one or more of the aforementioned entities. An entity that becomes subject to these restrictions because of its ownership structure will be subject to the most restrictive controls that attach to any of its parent entities, regardless of ownership stakes.
