This is a General Decision wage determination issued by the U.S. Department of Labor for building construction projects in eight Alabama counties (Barbour, Bullock, Butler, Coffee, Covington, Crenshaw, Macon, and Pike). The determination covers building construction projects excluding single-family homes and apartments up to four stories.

The document establishes prevailing wage rates and fringe benefits effective January 2, 2026, superseding a prior determination from 2025. Wage rates are listed for multiple classifications including boilermaker ($34.21/hour plus $23.92 fringe), electrician ($32.15/hour plus $17.43 fringe), power equipment operator ($29.90/hour plus $14.55 fringe), plumber ($35.20/hour plus $13.51 fringe), and various other trades such as bricklayer, carpenter, cement mason, laborer, painter, sheet metal worker, and truck driver. Rates are identified by source type: union rates (four-letter identifiers beginning with characters other than "SU"), union average rates (UAVG identifier), survey rates ("SU" identifier), and state-adopted rates ("SA" identifier). The determination includes notes on Executive Orders 13706 and 13658 requiring paid sick leave and minimum wage provisions for federal contractors, respectively. Unlisted classifications needed for work not included in the scope may be added after award per 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1)(iii). The document also outlines the wage determination appeals process with contact information for the Branch of Wage Surveys and Branch of Construction Wage Determinations.
