Companies using certain foreign LiDAR tech would not get federal transportation funds or contracts.
This bill would stop the Department of Transportation (DOT) from using certain LiDAR technology made by specific foreign companies or countries. Businesses wanting DOT contracts or grants would also need to promise they won't use this technology.
Currently, the Department of Transportation (DOT) can procure or contract for LiDAR technology from various sources, including certain foreign entities or countries, without specific legal prohibitions. If this bill passes, the DOT would be legally blocked from buying or contracting for certain foreign-made LiDAR technology. Companies working with the DOT or receiving its funds would also face restrictions on using this technology, starting June 30, 2026.
