Where a contract that was originally issued in an amount not in
excess of $2,500 is later modified so that its amount may exceed that
figure, all the provisions of section 2(a) of the Act, and the
regulations thereunder, are applicable from the date of modification to
the date of contract completion. In the event of such modification, the
contracting officer shall immediately obtain a wage determination from
the Department of Labor using the e98 application or directly from
WDOL, and insert the required contract clauses and any wage
determination issued into the contract. In the event that a contract
for services subject to the Act in excess of $2,500 is modified so that
it cannot exceed $2,500, compliance with the provisions of section 2(a)
of the Act and the contract clauses required thereunder ceases to be an
obligation of the contractor when such modification becomes effective.
