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 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
[[Page 30724]]
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
supersedeas 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, NW., Room S-
3014, Washington, DC 20210.
