Proposed Collection; Comment
Request
ACTION:
Notice.
SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as
part of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a preclearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and Federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
and/or continuing collections of
information in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. This
program helps to ensure that requested
data can be provided in the desired
format, reporting burden (time and
financial resources) is minimized,
collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection
requirements on respondents can be
properly assessed. Currently, the
Employment Standards Administration
is soliciting comments concerning the
proposed collection: Housing
Occupancy Certificate—Migrant and
Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection
Act (WH–520). A copy of the proposed
information collection request can be
obtained by contacting the office listed
below in the ADDRESSES section of this
Notice.
Written comments must be
submitted to the office listed in the
addresses section below on or before
March 8, 2005.

I. Background
Section 203(b)(1) of the Migrant and
Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection
Act (MSPA), 29 U.S.C. 1801, et seq., and
Regulation 29 CFR 500.135(b) provide
that any person who owns or controls a
facility or real property to be used for
housing migrant agricultural workers
shall not permit such housing to be
occupied by any worker unless a copy
of the certificate of occupancy from the
state, local, or federal agency that
conducted the housing safety and health
inspection is posted at the site of the
facility or real property. Form WH–520
is both an information gathering form
and the certificate of occupancy that the
Wage and Hour Division (WHD) of the
Employment Standards Administration
(ESA) of the U.S. Department of Labor
(DOL) issues when it is the federal
agency conducting the safety and health
inspection. This information collection
is currently approved for use through
June 30, 2005.
II. Review Focus
The Department of Labor is
particularly interested in comments
which:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• Enhance the quality, utility and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
III. Current Actions
The Wage and Hour Division seeks
the approval of the extension of this
information collection in order to
inspect and certify a migrant housing
facility as meeting applicable safety and
health standards under the law.
Type of Review: Extension.
Agency: Employment Standards
Administration.

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
E:\FR\FM\07JAN1.SGM
07JAN1
Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 5 / Friday, January 7, 2005 / Notices
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
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
supersedes 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 selfexplanatory forms for the purpose of
submitting this data may be obtained by
