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 have been made in accordance with 29
[[Page 43164]]
CFR Part 1, by authority of the Secretary of the 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 procedures thereon prior to the issuance of these
determinations as prescribed in 5 U.S.C. 553 and not providing for
delay in the effective data 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 Divisions,
Division of Wage Determinations, 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W., Room S-
3014, Washington, D.C. 20210.
