ACTION: Policy statement. AGENCY: The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) clarifies how the Commission will treat the use of project-area wage standards in calculating the labor cost component of jurisdictional cost-of-service rates. DATES: This policy statement is effective June 26, 2024.

On October 19, 2023, the Commission issued a proposed policy statement,1 proposing to clarify how it will treat the use of project-area wage standards in calculating the labor cost component of cost-of-service rates, including under Natural Gas Act (NGA) sections 4, 5, and 7, 15 U.S.C. 717c–d, 717f; the Interstate Commerce Act (ICA), 49 U.S.C. app. 1(5)(a); and Federal Power Act (FPA) sections 205 and 206, 16 U.S.C. 824d–e.2 In this Policy Statement, we adopt the proposals in the Proposed Policy Statement, as discussed below. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background A. Current Commission Precedent 2. Project-area wage standards are the prevailing wages set by labor markets in the locale where the associated project work (e.g., construction, capital repairs, decommissioning) is performed. Those prevailing wages can be found in data sources that indicate the basic hourly wage rates and fringe benefit rates for labor, direct employees, and/or contract personnel that prevail in a particular geographic area. For example, under the Davis-Bacon Act, the U.S. Department of Labor issues prevailing wage determinations based on periodic surveys of union and non-union wages paid in a particular location. These determinations serve as the minimum wage that must be paid by contractors and subcontractors performing under certain federally funded or assisted construction contracts.3 A number of states have enacted their own prevailing wage laws, sometimes referred to as ‘‘Little Davis-Bacon’’ laws.4 3. The Commission addressed the treatment of project-area wages in natural gas pipeline cost-of-service rates in Opinion Nos. 510 and 524.5 In 1 Project-Area Wage Standards in the Labor Cost Component of Cost-of-Service Rates, 185 FERC ¶ 61,049 (2023) (Proposed Policy Statement). 2 While most interstate oil pipelines have marketbased or indexed rates, some jurisdictional pipelines have cost-of-service rates on file with the Commission. 3 ‘‘By requiring the payment of minimum prevailing wages, Congress sought to ‘ensure that Government construction and federally assisted construction would not be conducted at the expense of depressing local wage standards.’’’ Dep’t of Labor, Updating the Davis-Bacon & Related Acts Reguls., 88 FR 57526, 57526 (Aug. 23, 2023) (citing Determination of Wage Rates Under the DavisBacon & Serv.
