C04 Attachment 5-DBA WD AZ20260006 051826.pdf

This document is a General Decision (Wage Determination) issued by the U.S. Department of Labor, Wage and Hour Division, for heavy construction projects in five Arizona counties: Maricopa, Mohave, Pima, Pinal, and Yuma. The decision establishes prevailing wage rates for various construction classifications and trades required on federally-funded construction contracts in these jurisdictions. The general decision was initially published on 01/02/2026 with Modification 1 effective 05/18/2026.

The wage determination covers multiple construction job classifications including boilermakers, bricklayers, carpenters, pile drivers, millwrights, divers, power equipment operators, ironworkers, laborers, painters, cement masons, plumbers/pipefitters, electricians, truck drivers, and welders. Wage rates are presented in hourly figures with corresponding fringe benefit amounts, varying by job classification, experience level, and geographic zones based on distance from specified reference points (typically Phoenix or Tucson city halls). For example, boilermaker rates are $36.07 per hour with $30.59 in fringes, while electricians earn $16.00 per hour with $2.84 in fringes. The document includes special provisions regarding Executive Order 13706 (paid sick leave requirements) and Executive Order 13658 (minimum wage requirements of $13.65 per hour through December 31, 2026). Rate identifiers indicate whether rates are union-negotiated (identified by union local numbers), weighted union averages, survey-based, or state-adopted rates, with effective dates for each classification.
