This is a Register of Wage Determinations under the Service Contract Act issued by the U.S. Department of Labor Employment Standards Administration. The document establishes prevailing wage rates for federal service contracts in two distinct Colorado geographic areas.

The first wage determination (2015-5435, Revision 30, effective 5/13/2026) covers Colorado counties including Archuleta, Chaffee, Delta, Dolores, Fremont, Gunnison, Hinsdale, La Plata, Montezuma, Montrose, Ouray, San Juan, and San Miguel.

Both determinations mandate fringe benefits including health and welfare ($5.55 per hour or $222.00 per week for standard occupations; $5.09 per hour or $203.60 per week when compensating employees under Executive Order 13706 for paid sick leave obligations), paid vacation schedules, and eleven paid holidays annually. Wage rates are specified for over 150 occupations ranging from administrative support and clerical positions ($14.69–$25.28 per hour) to technical and specialized roles such as nursing specialists ($59.82 per hour), computer programmers (subject to footnote 1 for exemption considerations), and air traffic control specialists ($47.29–$51.37 per hour). The determination includes provisions for hazardous pay differentials (4–8 percent) for employees working with explosives and ordnance, night shift differentials for air traffic controllers and weather observers, and uniform allowances. All contractors must comply with these rates for service contracts awarded under the Service Contract Act in these designated Colorado areas.
