Download as PDF 25616 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 92 / Friday, May 13, 2005 / Notices of the exemption to permit Riggs to function as a QPAM for the interim period between the March 29, 2005 sentencing of Riggs and the acquisition of Riggs by PNC, during which time Riggs will operate as a stand-alone entity, as well as for the period of time after it is acquired by PNC. The Department notes that the acquisition of Riggs by a large financial institution was an important factor in the Department’s determination to propose exemptive relief. The Department has concluded that it is unable to make the findings required by section 408(a) of the Act necessary to provide relief covering the interim period between the sentencing of Riggs and the acquisition of Riggs by PNC. In the absence of the availability of PTE 84–14 for this interim period, it is the responsibility of Riggs to ensure that it has not engaged in any prohibited transactions for which there is no other exemptive relief. Accordingly, the Department has considered the entire record, including the one comment received, and has determined to grant the exemption as it was proposed. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Gary H. Lefkowitz of the Department, telephone (202) 693–8546. (This is not a toll-free number.) General Information The attention of interested persons is directed to the following: (1) The fact that a transaction is the subject of an exemption under section 408(a) of the Act and/or section 4975(c)(2) of the Code does not relieve a fiduciary or other party in interest or disqualified person from certain other provisions to which the exemption does not apply and the general fiduciary responsibility provisions of section 404 of the Act, which among other things require a fiduciary to discharge his duties respecting the plan solely in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of the plan and in a prudent fashion in accordance with section 404(a)(1)(B) of the Act; nor does it affect the requirement of section 401(a) of the Code that the plan must operate for the exclusive benefit of the employees of the employer maintaining the plan and their beneficiaries; (2) This exemption is supplemental to and not in derogation of, any other provisions of the Act and/or the Code, including statutory or administrative exemptions and transactional rules. Furthermore, the fact that a transaction is subject to an administrative or statutory exemption is not dispositive of whether the transaction is in fact a prohibited transaction; and VerDate jul<14>2003 15:59 May 12, 2005 Jkt 205001 (3) The availability of this exemption is subject to the express condition that the material facts and representations contained in the application accurately describes all material terms of the transaction which is the subject of the exemption. Signed at Washington, DC, this 10th day of May, 2005. Ivan Strasfeld, Director of Exemption Determinations, Employee Benefits Security Administration, U.S. Department of Labor.

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 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 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 to the Department.
