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 determination 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
accordance with the provisions of the
foregoing statutes, constitute the
minimum wage 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
PO 00000
Frm 00120
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
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 cause 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
the 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 be the Department.
Further information and selfexplanatory forms for the purpose of
submitting this data may be obtained by

Frm 00121
Fmt 4703
amended (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321 et
seq.), the Council on Environmental
Quality Regulations for Implementing
the Procedural Provisions of NEPA (40
CFR parts 1500–1508), and NASA
policy and procedures (14 CFR part
1216 subpart 1216.3), NASA has
prepared and issued a DEIS for the New
Horizons mission. The DEIS addresses
the potential environmental impacts
associated with continuing the
preparations for and implementing the
mission. The purpose of this proposal is
to explore Pluto, its moon Charon, and
possibly one or more objects within the
Kuiper Belt. The New Horizons mission
is planned for launch in January–
February 2006 from Cape Canaveral Air
Force Station (CCAFS), Florida, on an
expendable launch vehicle. With a
launch in mid January 2006, the New
Horizons spacecraft would arrive at
Pluto as early as 2015 and would
conduct scientific investigations of
Pluto and its moon, Charon, as it flies
past these bodies. The spacecraft may
then continue on an extended mission
into the Kuiper Belt, where it would
investigate one or more of the objects
found there. The spacecraft would
require electrical power for normal
spacecraft operations and to operate the
science instruments. One radioisotope
thermoelectric generator (RTG)
containing plutonium dioxide would be
used for this purpose. A backup launch
opportunity could occur in February
2007 with an arrival at Pluto in 2019 or
2020 depending upon the exact date of
launch.
Interested parties are invited to
submit comments on environmental
concerns on or before April 11, 2005, or
45 days from the date of publication in
the Federal Register of the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency’s
notice of availability of the New
Horizons DEIS, whichever is later.
