EXHIBIT D
CONFIDENTIALITY
IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES to be provided by PROFESSIONAL under this
AGREEMENT, the parties agree to comply with reasonable policies and procedures with regard
to the exchange and handling of confidential information and other sensitive materials between
the parties, as set forth below.
1. Definitions.
For purposes of this AGREEMENT, the party who owns the referenced information and is
disclosing same shall be referenced as the “Disclosing Party.” The party receiving the
Disclosing Party’s information shall be referenced as the “Receiving Party.”
2. Confidential Information.
Confidential Information controlled by this AGREEMENT refers to information that is not public
and/or is proprietary, including but not limited to location information, network security system,
business plans, formulae, processes, intellectual property, trade secrets, designs,
photographs, plans, drawings, schematics, methods, specifications, samples, reports,
mechanical and electronic design drawings, customer lists, financial information, studies,
findings, inventions, ideas, CITY customer identifiable information (including account,
address, billing, consumption, contact, and other customer data), utility metering data, service
billing records, customer equipment information.
To the extent practical, Confidential Information shall be marked “Confidential” or
“Proprietary.” Nevertheless, PROFESSIONAL shall treat as Confidential Information all
customer identifiable information in any form, whether or not bearing a mark of confidentiality
or otherwise requested by the CITY, including but not limited to the non-exclusive list of
Confidential Information above. In the case of disclosure in non-documentary form of non-
customer identifiable information, made orally or by visual inspection, the Disclosing Party
shall have the right, or, if requested by the Receiving Party, the obligation to confirm in writing
the fact and general nature of each disclosure within a reasonable time after it is made in
order that it is treated as Confidential Information. Any information disclosed to the other party
before the execution of this AGREEMENT and related to the services for which
PROFESSIONAL has been engaged shall be considered in the same manner and be subject
to the same treatment as the information disclosed after the execution of this AGREEMENT
with regard to protecting it as Confidential Information.
3. Use of Confidential Information.
Receiving Party hereby agrees that it shall use the Confidential Information solely for the
purpose of performing its obligations under this AGREEMENT and not in any way detrimental
to Disclosing Party. Receiving Party agrees to use the same degree of care Receiving Party
uses with respect to its own proprietary or confidential information, which in any event shall
result in a reasonable standard of care to prevent unauthorized use or disclosure of the
Confidential Information. Except as otherwise provided herein, Receiving Party shall keep
confidential and not disclose the Confidential Information. The CITY and PROFESSIONAL
shall cause each of their directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, and
subcontractors to become familiar with, and abide by, the terms of this Exhibit, which shall
survive this AGREEMENT as an on-going obligation of the Parties.
PROFESSIONAL shall not use such information to obtain any economic or other benefit for
itself, or any third party, other than in the performance of obligations under this AGREEMENT.
4. Exclusions from Definition.
The term “Confidential Information” as used herein does not include any data or information
which is already known to the Receiving Party or which before being divulged by the
Disclosing Party: (a) was generally known to the public through no wrongful act of the
Receiving Party; (b) has been rightfully received by the Receiving Party from a third party
without restriction on disclosure and without, to the knowledge of the Receiving Party, a
breach of an obligation of confidentiality; (c) has been approved for release by a written
authorization by the other party hereto; or (d) has been disclosed pursuant to a requirement
of a governmental agency or by operation of law, subject to Paragraph 5 below.
5. Required Disclosure.
Notwithstanding Paragraph 4(d) above, if the Receiving Party receives a request (by
interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand
or similar process, or by federal, state, or local law, including without limitation, the Colorado
Open Records Act) to disclose any Confidential Information, the Parties agree the Receiving
Party will provide the Disclosing Party with immediate notice of such request, so the Disclosing
Party may seek an appropriate protective order before disclosure or waive the Receiving
Party’s compliance with this Exhibit.
The Receiving Party shall furnish a copy of this Exhibit with any disclosure.
Notwithstanding this Paragraph 5, Receiving Party shall not disclose Confidential Information
to any person, directly or indirectly, nor use it in any way, except as required by law or
authorized in writing by Disclosing Party.
6. Red Flags Rules.
If applicable, PROFESSIONAL must implement reasonable policies and procedures to detect,
prevent and mitigate the risk of identity theft in compliance with the Identity Theft Red Flags
Rules found at 16 Code of Federal Regulations part 681. Further, PROFESSIONAL must
take appropriate steps to mitigate identity theft if it occurs with any of the CITY’s covered
information and must notify the CITY in writing within twenty-four (24) hours of discovery of
any breaches of security or Red Flags to the CITY.
7. Data Protection and Data Security.
PROFESSIONAL shall have in place information security safeguards designed to conform to
or exceed industry best practices regarding the protection of the confidentiality, integrity and
availability of Confidential Information and shall have written agreements requiring any
subcontractor to meet those standards. These information security safeguards (the
“Information Security Program”) shall be materially consistent with, or more stringent than, the
safeguards described in this Exhibit.
(a) PROFESSIONAL’s information security safeguards shall address the following elements:
• Data Storage, Backups and Disposal
• Logical Access Control (e.g., Role-Based)
• Information Classification and Handling
• Secure Data Transfer (SFTP and Data Transfer Specification)
• Secure Web Communications
• Network and Security Monitoring
• Application Development Security
• Application Security Controls and Procedures (User Authentication, Security
Controls, and Security Procedures, Policies and Logging)
• Incident Response
• Vulnerability Assessments
• Hosted Services
• Personnel Security
(b) Subcontractors. PROFESSIONAL may use subcontractors, though such activity shall not
release or absolve PROFESSIONAL from the obligation to satisfy all conditions of this
AGREEMENT, including the data security measures described in this Exhibit, and to
require a substantially similar level of data security, appropriate to the types of services
provided and Confidential Information received, for any subcontractor PROFESSIONAL
may use. Accordingly, any release of data, confidential information, or failure to protect
information under this AGREEMENT by a subcontractor or affiliated party shall be
attributed to PROFESSIONAL and may be considered to be a material breach of this
AGREEMENT.
8. Information Storage. Confidential Information is not to be stored on any local workstation,
laptop, or media such as CD/DVD, USB drives, external hard drives or other similar portable
devices unless the PROFESSIONAL can ensure security for the Confidential Information so
stored. Workstations or laptops to be used in the Services will be required to have personal
firewalls on each, as well as have current, active anti-virus definitions.
9. Continuing Obligation. The agreement not to disclose Confidential Information as set forth in
this Exhibit shall apply during the term of the Services and or AGREEMENT and at any time
thereafter unless specifically authorized by the CITY in writing.
10. Termination Remedy. If PROFESSIONAL breaches any of the terms of this Exhibit, in the
CITY’s sole discretion, the CITY may immediately terminate this AGREEMENT and withdraw
PROFESSIONAL’s right to access Confidential Information.
11. Return of Information. Notwithstanding any other provision of this AGREEMENT to provide
Project Instruments and work product, all material, i.e., various physical forms of media in
which Confidential Information is stored, including but not limited to writings, drawings, tapes,
diskettes, prototypes or products, shall remain the sole property of the Disclosing Party and,
upon request, shall be promptly returned, together with all copies thereof to the Disclosing
Party. Upon return of such materials, all digital and electronic data shall also be deleted in a
non-restorable way by which it is no longer available to the Receiving Party. Upon Disclosing
Party’s request, written verification of the deletion (including date of deletion) is to be provided
to the Disclosing Party within ten (10) days after completion of engagement, whether it be via
termination, completion or otherwise.
12. Injunctive Relief. PROFESSIONAL Receiving Party acknowledges that the Disclosing Party
may, based upon the representations made in this AGREEMENT, disclose security
information that is critical to the continued success of the Discloser’s business. Accordingly,
Receiving Party agrees that the Disclosing Party does not have an adequate remedy at law
for breach of this AGREEMENT and therefore, the Disclosing Party shall be entitled, as a non-
exclusive remedy, and in addition to an action for damages, to seek and obtain an injunction
or decree of specific performance or any other remedy, from a court of competent jurisdiction
to enjoin or remedy any violation of this AGREEMENT.
ATTACHMENT E
APPENDIX II: CONTRACT PROVISIONS FOR NON-FEDERAL ENTITY CONTRACTS
UNDER FEDERAL AWARDS
(A) For a Contract for more than the simplified acquisition threshold ($250,000).
Breach. Any breach of the Contract by Contractor shall be governed by the termination and
remedies provisions of the Contract. Additionally, in the event that the City incurs damages
as a result of Contractor’s breach, the City may pursue recovery of such damages from
Contractor, subject to any disclaimers or limitation on liability as set forth in the Contract.
The City further retains the right to seek specific performance of the Contract at any time as
authorized by law. The City further retains the right to otherwise pursue any remedies
available to the City as a result of the Contractor’s breach, including but not limited to
administrative, Contractual, or legal remedies, as well as any applicable sanctions and
penalties.
Remedies for Non-Performance. If Contractor fails to perform any of its obligations under
this Contract, the City may, at its sole discretion, exercise one or more of the following
remedies, which shall survive expiration or termination of this Contract:
a. Suspend Performance: The City may require the Contractor to suspend performance
of all or any portion of the Work pending necessary corrective action specified by the
City and without entitling Contractor to an increase in compensation or extension of the
performance schedule. Contractor must promptly stop performance and incurring costs
upon delivery of a notice of suspension by the City.
b. Withhold Payment Pending Corrections: The City may permit Contractor to correct
any rejected Work at the City ’s discretion. Upon City ’s request, Contractor must correct

Upon completion of the corrections satisfactory to the City, City will remit payment to
Contractor.
c. Deny Payment: City may deny payment for any Work that does not comply with the
requirements of the Contract or that Contractor otherwise fails to provide or complete,
as determined by the City in its sole discretion. Upon City request, Contractor will
promptly refund any amounts prepaid by the City with respect to such non-compliant
Work.
d. Removal: Upon City ’s request, Contractor will remove any of its employees or agents
from performance of the Work, if the City, in its sole discretion, deems any such person
to be incompetent, careless, unsuitable, or otherwise unacceptable.
(B) [Except as otherwise provided under 41 CFR Part 60, all Contracts that meet the definition
of “federally assisted construction Contract” in 41 CFR Part 60-1.3]
Equal Employment Opportunity. Contractor agrees to comply with the Equal Opportunity
Clause provided under 41 CFR 60-1.4(a) (Government Contracts) and 41 CFR 60-1.4(b)
(Federal Assisted Construction Contracts), in accordance with Executive Order 11246,
“Equal Employment Opportunity” (30 FR 12319, 12935, 3 CFR Part, 1964-1965 Comp., p.
339), as amended by Executive Order 11375, “Amending Executive Order 11246 Relating
to Equal Employment Opportunity,” and implementing regulations at 41 CFR part 60, “Office
of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, Equal Employment Opportunity, Department of
Labor.” Contractor further agrees to include this provision, including the Equal Opportunity
Clause or a reference thereto, in any subcontracts it enters into pursuant to the Contract.
During the performance of this Contract, the Contractor agrees as follows:
(1) The Contractor will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment
because of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national
origin. The Contractor will take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed,
and that employees are treated during employment without regard to their race, color,
religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin. Such action shall
include, but not be limited to the following:
Employment, upgrading, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising;
layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for
training, including apprenticeship. The Contractor agrees to post in conspicuous places,
available to employees and applicants for employment, notices to be provided setting
forth the provisions of this nondiscrimination clause.
(2) The Contractor will, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or on
behalf of the Contractor, state that all qualified applicants will receive consideration for
employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender
identity, or national origin.
(3) The Contractor will not discharge or in any other manner discriminate against any
employee or applicant for employment because such employee or applicant has inquired
about, discussed, or disclosed the compensation of the employee or applicant or another
employee or applicant. This provision shall not apply to instances in which an employee
who has access to the compensation information of other employees or applicants as a
part of such employee's essential job functions discloses the compensation of such other
employees or applicants to individuals who do not otherwise have access to such
information, unless such disclosure is in response to a formal complaint or charge, in
furtherance of an investigation, proceeding, hearing, or action, including an investigation
conducted by the employer, or is consistent with the Contractor's legal duty to furnish
information.
(4) The Contractor will send to each labor union or representative of workers with which he
has a collective bargaining agreement or other Contract or understanding, a notice to
be provided advising the said labor union or workers' representatives of the Contractor's
commitments under this section, and shall post copies of the notice in conspicuous
places available to employees and applicants for employment.
(5) The Contractor will comply with all provisions of Executive Order 11246 of September
24, 1965, and of the rules, regulations, and relevant orders of the Secretary of Labor.
(6) The Contractor will furnish all information and reports required by Executive Order 11246
of September 24, 1965, and by rules, regulations, and orders of the Secretary of Labor,
or pursuant thereto, and will permit access to his books, records, and accounts by the
administering agency and the Secretary of Labor for purposes of investigation to
ascertain compliance with such rules, regulations, and orders.
(7) In the event of the Contractor's noncompliance with the nondiscrimination clauses of this
Contract or with any of the said rules, regulations, or orders, this Contract may be
canceled, terminated, or suspended in whole or in part and the Contractor may be
declared ineligible for further Government Contracts or federally assisted construction
Contracts in accordance with procedures authorized in Executive Order 11246 of
September 24, 1965, and such other sanctions may be imposed and remedies invoked
as provided in Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, or by rule, regulation, or
order of the Secretary of Labor, or as otherwise provided by law.
(8) The Contractor will include the portion of the sentence immediately preceding paragraph
(1) and the provisions of paragraphs (1) through (8) in every subContract or purchase
order unless exempted by rules, regulations, or orders of the Secretary of Labor issued
pursuant to section 204 of Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, so that such
provisions will be binding upon each subcontractor or vendor. The Contractor will take
such action with respect to any subContract or purchase order as the administering
agency may direct as a means of enforcing such provisions, including sanctions for
noncompliance:
Provided, however, that in the event a Contractor becomes involved in, or is threatened
with, litigation with a subcontractor or vendor as a result of such direction by the
administering agency, the Contractor may request the United States to enter into such
litigation to protect the interests of the United States.
The applicant further agrees that it will be bound by the above equal opportunity clause
with respect to its own employment practices when it participates in federally assisted
construction work: Provided, that if the applicant so participating is a State or local
government, the above equal opportunity clause is not applicable to any agency,
instrumentality or subdivision of such government which does not participate in work on
or under the Contract.
The applicant agrees that it will assist and cooperate actively with the administering
agency and the Secretary of Labor in obtaining the compliance of Contractors and
subcontractors with the equal opportunity clause and the rules, regulations, and relevant
orders of the Secretary of Labor, that it will furnish the administering agency and the
Secretary of Labor such information as they may require for the supervision of such
compliance, and that it will otherwise assist the administering agency in the discharge
of the agency's primary responsibility for securing compliance.
The applicant further agrees that it will refrain from entering into any Contract or Contract
modification subject to Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, with a Contractor
debarred from, or who has not demonstrated eligibility for, Government Contracts and
federally assisted construction Contracts pursuant to the Executive Order and will carry
out such sanctions and penalties for violation of the equal opportunity clause as may be
imposed upon Contractors and subcontractors by the administering agency or the
Secretary of Labor pursuant to Part II, Subpart D of the Executive Order. In addition, the
applicant agrees that if it fails or refuses to comply with these undertakings, the
administering agency may take any or all of the following actions: Cancel, terminate, or
suspend in whole or in part this grant (Contract, loan, insurance, guarantee); refrain from
extending any further assistance to the applicant under the program with respect to
which the failure or refund occurred until satisfactory assur ance of future compliance
has been received from such applicant; and refer the case to the Department of Justice
for appropriate legal proceedings.
(9) [Reserved]
(c) Subcontracts. Each nonexempt prime Contractor or subcontractor shall include the
equal opportunity clause in each of its nonexempt subcontracts.
(d) Inclusion of the equal opportunity clause by reference. The equal opportunity clause
may be included by reference in all Government Contracts and subcontracts, including
Government bills of lading, transportation requests, Contracts for deposit of Government
funds, and Contracts for issuing and paying U.S. savings bonds and notes, and such
other Contracts and subcontracts as the Director of OFCCP may designate.
(e) Incorporation by operation of the order. By operation of the order, the equal opportunity
clause shall be considered to be a part of every Contract and subContract required by
the order and the regulations in this part to include such a clause whether or not it is
physically incorporated in such Contracts and whether or not the Contract between the
agency and the Contractor is written.
(f) Adaptation of language. Such necessary changes in language may be made in the equal
opportunity clause as shall be appropriate to identify properly the parties and their
undertakings.
(C) [Where applicable, all Contracts awarded by the non-Federal entity in excess of $100,000
that involve the employment of mechanics or laborers]
Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (40 U.S.C. 3701-3708). Contractor must
fully comply with the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standard Act (40 U.S.C. 3701-3708),
including 40 U.S.C. 3702 and 3704, as supplemented by Department of Labor regulations
(29 CFR Part 5). Under 40 U.S.C. 3702 of the Act, Contract is required to compute the
wages of every mechanic and laborer on the basis of a standard work week of 40 hours.
Work in excess of the standard work week is permissible provided that the worker is
compensated at a rate of not less than one and a half times the basic rate of pay for all
hours worked in excess of 40 hours in the work week. The requirements of 40 U.S.C. 3704
are applicable to construction work and provide that no laborer or mechanic must be required
to work in surroundings or under working conditions which are unsanitary, hazardous or
dangerous. These requirements do not apply to the purchases of supplies or materials or
articles ordinarily available on the open market, or Contracts for transportation or
transmission of intelligence.
a. Overtime requirements. No contractor or subcontractor contracting for any part of the
contract work which may require or involve the employment of laborers or mechanics
shall require or permit any such laborer or mechanic in any workweek in which he or she
is employed on such work to work in excess of forty hours in such workweek unless such
laborer or mechanic receives compensation at a rate not less than one and one-half times
the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of forty hours in such workweek.
b. Violation; liability for unpaid wages; liquidated damages. In the event of any violation of
the clause set forth in paragraph (a) of this section the contractor and any subcontractor
responsible therefor shall be liable for the unpaid wages. In addition, such contractor
and subcontractor shall be liable to the United States (in the case of work done under
contract for the District of Columbia or a territory, to such District or to such territory), for
liquidated damages. Such liquidated damages shall be computed with respect to each
individual laborer or mechanic, including watchmen and guards, employed in violation
of the clause set forth in paragraph (a) of this section, in the sum of $26 for each calendar
day on which such individual was required or permitted to work in excess of the standard
workweek of forty hours without payment of the overtime wages required by the clause
set forth in paragraph (a) of this section.
c. Withholding for unpaid wages and liquidated damages. The FEMA shall upon its own
action or upon written request of an authorized representative of the Department of
Labor withhold or cause to be withheld, from any moneys payable on account of work
performed by the contractor or subcontractor under any such contract or any other
Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other federally-assisted contract
subject to the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act, which is held by the same
prime contractor, such sums as may be determined to be necessary to satisfy any
liabilities of such contractor or subcontractor for unpaid wages and liquidated damages
as provided in the clause set forth in paragraph (b) of this section.
d. Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor shall insert in any subcontracts the
clauses set forth in paragraph (a) through (d) of this section and also a clause requiring
the subcontractors to include these clauses in any lower tier subcontracts. The prime
contractor shall be responsible for compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier
subcontractor with the clauses set forth in paragraphs (a) through (d) of this section.
(D) [If the Federal award meets the definition of “funding agreement” under 37 CFR §401.2 (a)]
Rights to Inventions Made Under a Contract or Contract. For Contracts entered into by
the Contractor or the City with a small business firm or nonprofit organization regarding the
substitution of parties, assignment or performance of experimental, developmental, or
research work under that “funding agreement,” the parties must comply with the
requirements of 37 CFR Part 401, “Rights to Inventions Made by Nonprofit Organizations
and Small Business Firms Under Government Grants, Contracts and Cooperative
Contracts,” and any implementing regulations issued by the awarding agency.
(E) [Contracts and subgrants of amounts in excess of $150,000]
Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7401-7671q.) and the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (33
U.S.C. 1251-1387), as amended.
a. All parties agree to comply with all applicable standards, orders or regulations issued
pursuant to the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7401-7671q) and the Federal Water Pollution
Control Act as amended (33 U.S.C. 1251-1387). All parties shall report violations to the
Federal awarding agency and the Regional Office of the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
b. The Contractor agrees to report each violation to the City and understands and agrees
that the City will, in turn, report each violation as required to assure notification to the
Federal Emergency Management Agency, and the appropriate Environmental
Protection Agency Regional Office.
c. The Contractor agrees to include these requirements in each subcontract exceeding
$150,000 financed in whole or in part with Federal funds.
(F) [For Contract awards (see 2 CFR 180.220)]
Debarment and Suspension (Executive Orders 12549 and 12689). Contractor attests
that it is not listed on the government-wide exclusions in the System for Award Management
(SAM), in accordance with the OMB guidelines at 2 CFR 180 that implement Executive
Orders 12549 (3 CFR part 1986 Comp., p. 189) and 12689 (3 CFR part 1989 Comp., p.
235), “Debarment and Suspension.” SAM Exclusions contains the names of parties
debarred, suspended, or otherwise excluded by agencies, as well as parties declared
ineligible under statutory or regulatory authority other than Executive Order 12549.
a. This contract is a covered transaction for purposes of 2 C.F.R. pt. 180 and 2 C.F.R. pt.
3000. As such, the C ontractor is required to verify that none of the Contractor’s
principals (defined at 2 C.F.R. § 180.995) or its affiliates (defined at 2 C.F.R. § 180.905)
are excluded (defined at 2 C.F.R. § 180.940) or disqualified (defined at 2 C.F.R. §
180.935).

================================================================
** Workers in this classification may be entitled to a higher
minimum wage under Executive Order 14026 ($17.20) or 13658
($12.90). Please see the Note at the top of the wage
determination for more information. Please also note that the
minimum wage requirements of Executive Order 14026 are not
currently being enforced as to any contract or subcontract to
which the states of Texas, Louisiana, or Mississippi, including
their agencies, are a party.
Note: Executive Order (EO) 13706, Establishing Paid Sick Leave
for Federal Contractors applies to all contracts subject to the
Davis‐Bacon Act for which the contract is awarded (and any
solicitation was issued) on or after January 1, 2017. If this
contract is covered by the EO, the contractor must provide
employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours
they work, up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year.
Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave for their
own illness, injury or other health‐related needs, including
preventive care; to assist a family member (or person who is
like family to the employee) who is ill, injured, or has other
health‐related needs, including preventive care; or for reasons
resulting from, or to assist a family member (or person who is
like family to the employee) who is a victim of, domestic
violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Additional information
on contractor requirements and worker protections under the EO
is available at
https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/government‐contracts.
Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within
the scope of the classifications listed may be added after
award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses
(29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (iii)).
‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐
The body of each wage determination lists the classification
and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the
cited type(s) of construction in the area covered by the wage
determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical
order of ""identifiers"" that indicate whether the particular
rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate for local),
a survey rate (weighted average rate) or a union average rate
(weighted union average rate).
Union Rate Identifiers
A four letter classification abbreviation identifier enclosed
in dotted lines beginning with characters other than ""SU"" or
""UAVG"" denotes that the union classification and rate were
prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example:
PLUM0198‐005 07/01/2014. PLUM is an abbreviation identifier of
the union which prevailed in the survey for this
classification, which in this example would be Plumbers. 0198
indicates the local union number or district council number
where applicable, i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number,
005 in the example, is an internal number used in processing
the wage determination. 07/01/2014 is the effective date of the
most current negotiated rate, which in this example is July 1,
2014.
Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all rate
changes in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) governing
this classification and rate.
Survey Rate Identifiers
Classifications listed under the ""SU"" identifier indicate that
no one rate prevailed for this classification in the survey and
the published rate is derived by computing a weighted average
rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that
classification. As this weighted average rate includes all
rates reported in the survey, it may include both union and
non‐union rates. Example: SULA2012‐007 5/13/2014. SU indicates
the rates are survey rates based on a weighted average
calculation of rates and are not majority rates. LA indicates
the State of Louisiana. 2012 is the year of survey on which
these classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007
in the example, is an internal number used in producing the
wage determination. 5/13/2014 indicates the survey completion
date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.
Survey wage rates are not updated and remain in effect until a
new survey is conducted.
Union Average Rate Identifiers
Classification(s) listed under the UAVG identifier indicate
that no single majority rate prevailed for those
classifications; however, 100% of the data reported for the
classifications was union data. EXAMPLE: UAVG‐OH‐0010
08/29/2014. UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted union
average rate. OH indicates the state. The next number, 0010 in
the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage
determination. 08/29/2014 indicates the survey completion date
for the classifications and rates under that identifier.
A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January of
each year, to reflect a weighted average of the current
negotiated/CBA rate of the union locals from which the rate is
based.

WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS
1.) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can
be:
* an existing published wage determination
* a survey underlying a wage determination
* a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on
a wage determination matter
* a conformance (additional classification and rate) ruling
On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests
for summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and Hour
National Office because National Office has responsibility for
the Davis‐Bacon survey program. If the response from this
initial contact is not satisfactory, then the process described
in 2.) and 3.) should be followed.
With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formal
process described here, initial contact should be with the
Branch of Construction Wage Determinations. Write to:
Branch of Construction Wage Determinations
Wage and Hour Division
U.S. Department of Labor
200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.
Washington, DC 20210
2.) If the answer to the question in 1.) is yes, then an
interested party (those affected by the action) can request
review and reconsideration from the Wage and Hour Administrator
(See 29 CFR Part 1.8 and 29 CFR Part 7). Write to:
Wage and Hour Administrator
U.S. Department of Labor
200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.
Washington, DC 20210
The request should be accompanied by a full statement of the
interested party's position and by any information (wage
payment data, project description, area practice material,
etc.) that the requestor considers relevant to the issue.
3.) If the decision of the Administrator is not favorable, an
interested party may appeal directly to the Administrative
Review Board (formerly the Wage Appeals Board). Write to:
Administrative Review Board
U.S. Department of Labor
200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.
Washington, DC 20210
4.) All decisions by the Administrative Review Board are final.
