Attachment 6 - Davis Bacon Wage Determination Big Horn Cty., WY.pdf

This is a Davis-Bacon Act Wage Determination document (WD # WY20260041) published by the U.S. Department of Labor on January 2, 2026. It establishes prevailing wage rates for building construction projects in Wyoming statewide across all 23 counties (Albany, Big Horn, Campbell, Carbon, Converse, Crook, Fremont, Goshen, Hot Springs, Johnson, Laramie, Lincoln, Natrona, Niobrara, Park, Platte, Sheridan, Sublette, Sweetwater, Teton, Uinta, Washakie, and Weston). The determination supersedes a previous wage determination (WY20250041) and applies to federal contracts for building construction projects excluding single-family homes and apartments up to four stories. The document lists detailed hourly wage rates for approximately 40+ construction classifications, including general laborers ($22.77), carpenters and joiners ($29.05), electricians ($35.17), elevator constructors ($56.57), and various operating engineer categories ranging from $30.68 to $41.25. Specialized trades include asbestos removal ($23.00), boilermakers ($38.42), ironworkers ($33.68), plumbers and pipefitters ($36.94), and truck drivers ($25.96–$29.64). Wage rates are identified with union rate identifiers (SU, UAVG, ?SU, ?SC) indicating whether rates are current union-negotiated rates, weighted union averages, survey rates, or state-adopted rates, with effective dates ranging primarily from 2024 to 2025.

The document includes important notes regarding Executive Orders 13706 and 13658, requiring contractors to provide paid sick leave and comply with federal minimum wage provisions applicable to Davis-Bacon contracts. Appeals of wage determinations can be directed to the Branch of Wage Surveys or Branch of Construction Wage Determinations within the U.S. Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Division, with procedures outlined for requesting reconsideration or appealing to the Administrative Review Board.
