The labor classifications and prevailing wages differ significantly from those contained in wage determinations for the surrounding areas and the process of determining the proper labor classifications for work to be performed may differ significantly from that in a non-enclave environment. Offerors should contact the DOL for instructions concerning selection of proper labor classifications for all KSC construction projects within this special enclave. The DOL local office phone numbers are (321) 242- 1851/office and (321) 614-8823/mobile.
The selection of the proper labor classifications from the solicitation's wage determination for the pricing of bids/proposals is the responsibility of the offeror in consultation with the DOL.

It is incumbent upon the offeror to make potential subcontractors aware of KSC's special enclave status and to instruct them to contact DOL for instructions for choosing the proper labor classifications. The Agency will not make any official determination as to the proper labor classifications for work described in this solicitation.
The successful offeror shall be solely responsible for the employment of workers with the proper skills and payment of them in accordance with FAR 52.222-6, Construction Wage Rate Requirements, and the solicitation's wage determination. The Agency will monitor contractor compliance in accordance with 29 CFR 5.5. Non-compliance will be reported to the DOL. DOL will determine compliance with the Act and decide on enforcement actions.
