III. Prevailing Wage Rates
Is it possible for more than one wage schedule to apply to specifications
for a particular contract?
Yes. Construction projects are generally classified as either Building,
Heavy, Highway
or Residential for purposes of issuing wage
determinations. Wage schedules for one or more of these construction
categories may have application to construction items contained in a proposed
construction project. Guidelines for the selection of proper wage schedules
are set forth in All Agency Memoranda No. 130
(March 17, 1978) and No. 131 (July 14, 1978). Any questions regarding
the application of these guidelines to a particular project, or any disputes
regarding the application of the wage schedules issued for the various construction
categories are to be referred to the Wage
and Hour Division, together with relevant information, including a complete
description of the project and area practice.
