Davis_Bacon_Wages_Cherokee_County,_KS.pdf

This is a Davis-Bacon Wages document issued by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment for the Mussa Abandoned Mine Land (AML) Project located in Cherokee County, Kansas. The document establishes prevailing wage requirements for laborers and mechanics employed on the construction project. The scope of work involves remediation activities at the abandoned mine site, requiring skilled trades personnel to perform various construction and reclamation tasks. Specific wage rates are established for different job classifications including laborers, heavy equipment operators, carpenters, and other trades personnel working on the project. The prevailing wage rates must be paid to all workers employed on the project in compliance with federal Davis-Bacon wage requirements, which apply to federally funded construction projects.

The document specifies the minimum hourly wage rates that must be paid for each job classification, including base wages and fringe benefits such as health insurance, retirement contributions, and other worker protections. These prevailing wage rates are mandated for all contractors and subcontractors performing work on the Mussa AML Project and must be maintained throughout the duration of construction activities. The Davis-Bacon wage requirements ensure that workers on federally funded projects receive fair compensation and benefits. Contractors bidding on this project must incorporate these prevailing wage rates into their cost proposals and demonstrate compliance with wage payment requirements as a condition of contract award and performance.
