Counsel for the Region in which the Recipient is located, if the Recipient has
knowledge of potential fraud, waste, or abuse occurring on a Project receiving
assistance from FTA. The notification provision applies if a person has or may have
submitted a false claim under the False Claims Act, 31 U.S.C. § 3729, et seq., or
has or may have committed a criminal or civil violation of law pertaining to such
matters as fraud, conflict of interest, bid rigging, misappropriation or embezzlement,
bribery, gratuity, or similar misconduct involving federal assistance. This
responsibility occurs whether the Project is subject to this Agreement or another
agreement between the Recipient and FTA, or an agreement involving a principal,
officer, employee, agent, or Third Party Participant of the Recipient. It also applies
to subcontractors at any tier. Knowledge, as used in this paragraph, includes, but is

on contractor requirements and worker protections under the EO
is available at

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
Official Purchasing Document
Last updated 3/13/23
Services Agreement – Work Order Type
9988 HVAC On-Call Services Page 52 of 63
""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.
Official Purchasing Document
Last updated 3/13/23
Services Agreement – Work Order Type
9988 HVAC On-Call Services Page 53 of 63
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:

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:

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

subcontractors with the equal opportunity clause and the rules, regulations, and relevant
