U.S. DEPARTMENT OF LABOR OFFICE OF THE SOLICITOR WASHINGTON 25 September 25, 1964 MEMORANDUM # 61 TO: AGENCIES ADMINISTERING STATUTES REFERRED TO IN 29 OFR, SUBTITLE A, PART 5 FROM: E. Irving Manger Associate Administrator SUBJECT: Schedule for Determination of Fringe Benefits Reference is made to the 1966 amendments to the Davis-Bacon Act (PL 88-349) which provides for the inclusion of bona fide fringe benefits in wage determinations issued by the Secretary of Labor for Federal or Federally- assisted construction. The fringe benefits amendments to the Davis-Bacon Act provides that following the effective date of the amendments the Secretary of Labor has ma additional 270 days in which to complete the task of determining fringe benefits in all areas where they are prevailing. It is our desire to accomplish this as quickly as possible and we believe this can be done within the time allotted if we proceed on a State by State basis. There is attached for your information a schedule of the States and the order in which they will be processed. It is requested that the wage information required by 5.3 a (3) (including fringe benefit information) of Department of Labor Regulations Part 5 be furnished in accordance with the attached schedule on a State by State basis. The information for the month of October for Alabama, Alaska, California, Hawaii, New York, Texas and Wisconsin, should be in our hands no later than October 8, 1964. The information for subsequent months should be in our hands no later than the first of each month. It is our hope that this cooperation will be mutually beneficial.
