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 www.dol.gov/whd/govcontracts.

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) (ii)).

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

GROUP1-18-R-J020 OO8OOA-5

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

Regional Office for the area in which the survey was conducted because those Regional Offices have 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:

SECTION 00 33 50 WEATHER, WATER STAGE AND TIDE DATA

SECTION 00 33 50 Page 1

1. The following water stage, wave, wind, and weather data are provided for inclusion into the subject Plans and Specifications. The following water level datums are provided for information only and are not to be utilized in conjunction with any contract related hydrographic surveying.

a) Water Stages. Water levels in the project area are mainly affected by semi-diurnal tidal fluctuations in the Atlantic Ocean. The project area is also subject to storm surges from hurricanes and tropical storms from June through November. Surges from extratropical storms may affect the area during any time of the year.

Elevations of tidal datums in the vicinity of the project area are provided in the following tables.

All datum elevations in these tables are referred to mean lower low water (MLLW) from the tidal epoch period of 1983 – 2001. The datums in Table 1 are based on tide station 8722588 (Port of

West Palm Beach, FL). This tide station is located on the western end of Palm Beach Harbor and these values should be applied for any dredging and/or material placement taking place landward of the inlet jetties. The controlling tide station for this station is 8723214 (Virginia

Key, Biscayne Bay, FL) and these datums were based off a 24-month analysis from 01 October

2008 to 30 September 2010. Table 2 provides datums based on tide station 8722670 (Lake

Worth Pier). This station is located at the Lake Worth Pier, approximately 11 miles south of

Palm Beach Harbor. These values should be applied for any dredging and/or material placement taking place seaward of the inlet jetties. The controlling tide station for this station is 8721604

(Trident Pier, Port Canaveral, FL) and these datums were based off a 24-month analysis from 01

July 2010 to 30 June 2012 and a 48-month analysis from 01 January 2013 to 31 December 2016.

Both tide stations were established by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

(NOAA), National Ocean Service (NOS) and are applicable within the project vicinity.

Additional information on these and other nearby tide stations is available at this NOAA website:
