DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment Standards Administration Wage and Hour Division
Minimum Wages for Federal and Federally Assisted Construction;
General Wage Determination Decisions
General wage determination decisions of the Secretary of Labor are
issued in accordance with applicable law and are based on the
information obtained by the Department of Labor from its study of local
wage conditions and data made available from other sources. They
specify the basic hourly wage rates and fringe benefits which are
determined to be prevailing for the described classes of laborers and
mechanics employed on construction projects of a similar character and
in the localities specified therein.
The determinations in these decisions of prevailing rates and
fringe benefits
[[Page 56571]]
have been made in accordance with 29 CFR Part 1, by authority of the
Secretary of Labor pursuant to the provisions of the Davis-Bacon Act of
March 3, 1931, as amended (46 Stat. 1494, as amended, 40 U.S.C. 276a)
and of other Federal statutes referred to in 29 CFR Part 1, Appendix,
as well as such additional statutes as may from time to time be enacted
containing provisions for the payment of wages determined to be
prevailing by the Secretary of Labor in accordance with the Davis-Bacon
Act. The prevailing rates and fringe benefits determined in these
decisions shall, in accordance with the provisions of the foregoing
statutes, constitute the minimum wages payable on Federal and federally
assisted construction projects to laborers and mechanics of the
specified classes engaged on contract work of the character and in the
localities described therein.
Good cause is hereby found for not utilizing notice and public
comment procedure thereon prior to the issuance of these determinations
as prescribed in 5 U.S.C. 553 and not providing for delay in the
effective date as prescribed in that section, because the necessity to
issue current construction industry wage determinations frequently and
in large volume causes procedures to be impractical and contrary to the
public interest.
General wage determination decisions, and modifications and
supersedes decisions thereto, contain no expiration dates and are
effective from their date of notice in the Federal Register, or on the
date written notice is received by the agency, whichever is earlier.
These decisions are to be used in accordance with the provisions of 29
CFR Parts 1 and 5. Accordingly, the applicable decision, together with
any modifications issued, must be made a part of every contract for
performance of the described work within the geographic area indicated
as required by an applicable Federal prevailing wage law and 29 CFR
Part 5. The wage rates and fringe benefits, notice of which is
published herein, and which are contained in the Government Printing
Office (GPO) document entitled ``General Wage Determinations Issued
Under The Davis-Bacon And Related Acts,'' shall be the minimum paid by
contractors and subcontractors to laborers and mechanics.
Any person, organization, or governmental agency having an interest
in the rates determined as prevailing is encouraged to submit wage rate
and fringe benefit information for consideration by the Department.
Further information and self-explanatory forms for the purpose of
submitting this data may be obtained by writing to the U.S. Department
of Labor, Employment Standards Administration, Wage and Hour Division,
Division of Wage Determinations, 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W., Room S-
3014, Washington, D.C. 20210.
