Exhibit_N_-_HEAVY_Wage_Determination.pdf

This is a Wage Determination exhibit (Exhibit N) prepared for Volusia County's Office of Recovery and Resiliency in Florida related to the CDBG-DR Lantern Park Stormwater Pond Construction project. The document establishes prevailing wage requirements applicable to construction services for the stormwater improvements project, which is funded through a U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Community Development Block Grant for Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) to support Volusia County's recovery from Hurricane Ian damage sustained in September 2022. The wage determination sets forth the mandatory prevailing wage rates and classifications that contractors and subcontractors must comply with when performing work on this federally-funded disaster recovery construction project.

The prevailing wage determination is a compliance requirement tied to the federal funding source, ensuring that workers on the project receive wages consistent with federal Davis-Bacon Act standards for similar work in the geographic area. This exhibit serves as the authoritative wage schedule that all bidders must incorporate into their cost proposals and that all contractors performing work must adhere to throughout the project execution. The prevailing wage requirements apply to all laborers, mechanics, and other workers engaged in the construction of the stormwater pond improvements.
