This is a General Decision (Wage Determination) document issued by the U.S. Department of Labor for building construction projects in Wyoming, effective January 2, 2026. The determination applies statewide across all Wyoming counties and supersedes the previous wage determination WY20250041. It establishes prevailing wage rates and fringe benefits for various construction trades and labor classifications required on federally-funded building construction projects (excluding single-family homes and apartments up to four stories).

The wage determination lists hourly rates and fringe benefits for approximately 40 job classifications, including asbestos removal, blinds/window installation, boilermaking, masonry, carpentry, electrical work, plumbing, equipment operation, and general labor, among others. Rates range from $11.96 to $56.57 per hour, with fringe benefits varying by classification from $0.00 to $41.83 per hour. The document identifies union rates (indicated by four-letter identifiers), weighted union average rates (UAVG), survey rates (SU), and state-adopted rates (SA) with their respective effective dates. The determination includes important notes regarding Executive Orders 13706 and 13658 concerning paid sick leave and minimum wage requirements for federal contractors. The document also provides procedures for wage determination appeals, directing inquiries to the Department of Labor's Branch of Wage Surveys or Branch of Construction Wage Determinations, with escalation options to the Wage and Hour Administrator and Administrative Review Board.
