This is a prevailing wage determination issued by the U.S. Department of Labor for federal construction contracts in San Miguel County, New Mexico. The determination, effective General Decision Number NM20260028 dated May 18, 2026, applies to building construction projects in the specified New Mexico county and establishes mandatory wage rates and fringe benefits for all contractors and subcontractors performing work on federally funded or Davis-Bacon Act covered projects.

The wage determination lists classification rates organized by trade, including carpenters, electricians, power equipment operators, ironworkers, laborers, painters, plumbers, pipefitters, sheet metal workers, truck drivers, tile setters, roofers, plasterers, operators, glaziers, and other construction trades. Each classification specifies an hourly wage rate and fringe benefit amount. For example, carpenter (drywall hanging and finishing/taping) rates are $24.08 per hour with $10.79 fringe benefits, while electrician rates vary by zone from $40.30 per hour with $13.41 fringe benefits depending on distance from Albuquerque. The determination also includes provisions for Executive Order 13706 requiring paid sick leave for federal contractors and Executive Order 13658 establishing minimum wage rates of $13.65 per hour. Rate identifiers indicate whether classifications reflect union prevailing rates, weighted union average rates, survey rates, or state-adopted rates. The document provides instructions for wage determination appeals, directing initial inquiries to the Wage and Hour Division's Branch of Wage Surveys or Branch of Construction Wage Determinations.
