1.0 INTRODUCTION
Global Environmental Engineering Inc. (Global) was retained by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (MDNR) Parks and Recreation Division to complete a Due Dilligence Investigation and to provide Preconstruction recommendations for the property referred to as the Torch River Bridge BAS – Copeland Acquisition and located at 12929 Cherry Avenue and 12565 S West Torch Lake Drive, Rapid City, Michigan, hereafter referred to as the subject property (Figure 1). The MDNR acquired this property on January 31, 2020 and intends to redevelop the property to provide additional parking for a nearby boat access site.
The property historically operated as a refueling and service station. These operations and the historic presence of leaking underground storage tanks (LUST) resulted in petroleum impacts to soil and groundwater. A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (Phase I ESA), a Phase II Investigation (Phase II), and a Baseline Environmental Assessment were prepared in 2020 for the subject property. Additional soil sampling was conducted on February 19, 2021 to guide the redevelopment of the property and allow for the compliance with Due Care Obligations. The results of this additional investigation are summarized herein. MDNR is non-liable owner/operator of the subject property.
A Documentation of Due Care Compliance (DDCC) is instrument to demonstrate compliance with Due Care obligations pursuant to Section 20107a(1)(c) or Section 21304c(1)(c). While this document in not a DDCC, it loosely follows the DDCC format. Due Care obligations exist for non-liable owner/operators of contaminated properties and generally ensure that unacceptable exposure scenarios for human receptors do not occur and that contamination is not made worse.
A DDCC can be submitted for the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) review and concurrence when the document represents current use conditions. The preparation of this document varies from that requirement in that it provides the information necessary for the MDNR to maintain compliance with relevant Due Care obligations during site redevelopment and for the anticipated future use. If EGLE concurrence is requested, the report will require revision to reflect the post-development conditions. This document is intended to guide the safe redevelopment of use of the property considering soil and groundwater impacts associated with a historic refueling station
Section 21304c(1)(c) rules provide that a person who owns or operates a property that he or she has knowledge is a facility, must do all the following:
• Undertake measures to prevent exacerbation of existing contamination;
• Exercise due care by undertaking response activities necessary to mitigate unacceptable exposures to hazardous substances, mitigate fire and explosion hazards due to hazardous substances, and allow for the intended use of the property in a manner that protects the public health and safety;
• Take reasonable precautions against the reasonably foreseeable acts or omissions of a third party and the consequences that could result from those acts or omissions;
• Provide reasonable cooperation, assistance, and access to the persons that are authorized to conduct response activities at the facility, including the cooperation and access necessary for the installation, integrity, operation, and maintenance of any complete or partial response activity at the facility. Nothing in this subdivision shall be interpreted to provide any right of access not
Torch River Bridge BAS – Copeland Acquisition Global Job #EE20009
Global Environmental Engineering Inc. Page 2 expressly authorized by law, including access authorized pursuant to a warrant or a court order, or to preclude access allowed pursuant to a voluntary agreement;
• Comply with any land use or resource use restrictions established or relied on in connection with the response activities at the facility; and
• Not impede the effectiveness or integrity of any land use or resource use restriction employed at the facility in connection with response activities.
This report is based on information, regarding existing contamination and future site use, known at the time of the completion of this report.
2.0 DETAILED PROPERTY INFORMATION
2.1 Property Description
The subject property is comprised of two parcels:
• 12565 S West Torch Lake Drive was first developed in 1948 and has primarily been a lodge on the shore of Torch Lake with cabins also on the property for seasonal use (there are currently only two cabins on it, but there have been three in the past). The past few years it has been rented on a vacation rental website.
• 12929 Cherry Avenue was first developed in 1951 and was historically a service station with underground storage tanks for retail gasoline sales. The retail gasoline store is referred to as the Torch River Pit Stop. There was a reported release from the gasoline tanks in 1990, again in 1999 and the site was included on the Part 213 list as a Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) site.
Environmental concerns at the subject property are limited to the Torch River Pit Stop Property.
2.2 Historic Environmental Investigations and Remediation
Global submitted a request to the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to review publicly available files for the subject property. The bulk of the information is correspondence and legal documents. Those documents related to the extent of the soil and groundwater contamination are limited and largely pre-date the early 2000s. There are references to work that occurred more recently, including for late 2000s, but those documents were not available for review. Based on correspondence and reports, there was an excavation and the subsequent collection of verification samples indicated soil impacts remained, including in the right-of-way. The extent of the excavation was evaluated at a later date by Compliance Inc. based on email chains, but a report was not available for review.
EGLE (formerly MDEQ and MDNRE) contracted groundwater monitoring from approximately 2009 to 2012. Monitoring also included the collection of samples from the catch basin located onsite and south of Cherry Avenue. It was noted that where elevated groundwater concentrations were observed in proximity to a catch basin, impacts within the catch basins were observed as well. In 2012, groundwater concentrations were significantly reduced, and there did not appear to be a risk to environmental or human receptors, specifically Torch Lake and Torch River. Based on groundwater concentrations identified in 2020, this may no longer be the case.
Torch River Bridge BAS – Copeland Acquisition Global Job #EE20009
Global Environmental Engineering Inc. Page 3
Based on information available in EGLE files and the Phase II Investigation that occurred in February 2020, a Work Plan to delineate soil impacts considering site development has been developed and is described below.
2.3 Environmental Due Diligence
Global completed a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (Phase I ESA) for the property on March 4, 2020, which revealed evidence of recognized environmental condition (REC) as follows:
• The subject property is an open Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST). The status is considered Approved Project Completion (APC), however, the groundwater still contained levels of compounds above state clean up criteria in at least one well in January 2012.
• During the site reconnaissance Global inspected the interior of the buildings which has a shop on the north side of the building. There was a circular grate over sump in the floor, which is assumed to have been used as a floor drain. The sump had a hard bottom but had an approximately four
(4) inch pipe leading to the north side of the building located about four (4) inches below the shop floor surface. The floor in the shop had heavy oil staining. There was no evidence of a tank on the north side and no information was found regarding the location of a septic tank or drain field.
The destination of the pipe is unknown. Oil other hazardous material associated with a service station may have drained into the crock and discharged to an unknown location outside of the building.
• The floor in the shop was oil stained and there were large cracks in the concrete. Oil and other hazardous material associated with a service station may have seeped into the site soils through the cracks.
• In the summer of 2019, during construction of a “lip” along the asphalt drive, along the south side of the subject property, the soils which were excavated and graded to install the curb had a strong petroleum odor. Samples were not collected.
Based on the findings of the Phase I ESA, a Phase II Investigation was completed. A total of ten (10) soil borings (SB), including SB-1 through SB-10, were advanced at the site on February 26, 2020 (Figure 2). Petroleum constituents were identified in soil and groundwater at concentrations in excess of Michigan Cleanup Criteria Requirements for Response Activity (Formerly the Part 201 Generic Cleanup Criteria and Screening Levels) (Table 1 and Table 2). Based on these exceedances, the property meets the definition of a “Property” pursuant to Part 213 of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, Public Act 451, of 1994, (1994 PA 451, Part 213) as amended. Therefore, a Baseline Environmental Assessment (BEA) was filed on behalf of the MDNR (BEA No.: 00034225-BEA-1).
2.4 Due Care Investigation
An additional environmental investigation was conducted on February 19, 2021. The intent of this investigation was to delineate impacted site soils in a manner that facilitates planning portion of redevelopment and allows for compliance with Due Care obligations. Ten (10) soil borings, SB-11 through SB-20, were advanced to 3-feet, which is the approximate depth to water. Soils were continuously screened with a Photoionization Detector (PID). Soil samples were collected at 18 to 24-inches, above the water table and above the capillary fridge/approximate smear zone. Boring locations and analytical results are depicted in Figure 2, Figure 3, and Table 1. Soil boring logs are depicted as Appendix A. The laboratory report is attached as Appendix B.
Torch River Bridge BAS – Copeland Acquisition Global Job #EE20009
Global Environmental Engineering Inc. Page 4
In general, clean boundaries of contamination in vadose zone soils above the water table and capillary fringe were identified (Figure 3). In the areas outside of the depicted “Soil Contamination Extent” on Figure 3, impact soils are generally not encountered less than 18 inches below grade based on soil sampling data and PID readings. If excavation work extends beyond 18 inches, into or near the groundwater table, additional consideration will be required for soil and groundwater disposal, if applicable.
3.0 HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE INFORMATION
Hazardous Substances Use MDNR intends to operate the property in support of nearby recreational activities. The property will serve as a parking lot as a primary function. Hazardous substances are not expected to be used in a significant capacity on the property.
Underground Storage Tanks (USTs) and Abandoned Containers Global subcontracted GPRS Inc. to conduct ground penetrating radar (GPR) at the subject property. This work was conducted to assess for the potential of abandoned USTs. Evidence of USTs was not identified (Appendix C)
Environmental Investigations Conducted
Historic work (pre-2020) is described in Section 2.2.
Global conducted a Phase I ESA for the property on March 4, 2020. The Phase I ESA identified recognized environmental concerns (RECs) related to the historic use as a refueling and service station and known historic groundwater and soil contamination. A Phase II Environmental Site Assessment (Phase II ESA) occurred on the subject property on February 20, 2020, and findings were summarized in a letter form report dated March 31, 2020 (Appendix D).
The Phase II involved collected soil and groundwater samples to address concerns related to impacts attributable to historic operations at the site. Petroleum constituents in soil and groundwater were found to exceed criteria. Analytical Results are summarized as Table 1, Table 2, Figure 3, and Figure 4.
Additionally, a BEA was completed for this property on April 10, 2020 on behalf of the MDNR.
Contaminant Fate and Transport Groundwater impacts identified at the subject property are attributable to historic refueling operations.
Groundwater represents a potential transport mechanism for groundwater contamination. Groundwater flow direction in the vicinity of impacts has been established as northeast, in the direction of Torch Lake.
Additionally, a storm sewer in the vicinity of impacts has the potential to convey impacts groundwater to Torch River. Petroleum constituents are biodegradable and with sufficient time, natural processes will degrade the concentrations.
3.1 Section 21304c(1)(c) Soil and Groundwater Comparison Tables
The contaminated status of the subject property was determined from the comparison of the soil and groundwater concentrations to the Cleanup Criteria Requirements for Response Activity
Torch River Bridge BAS – Copeland Acquisition Global Job #EE20009
Global Environmental Engineering Inc. Page 5
(Formerly the Part 201 Generic Cleanup Criteria and Screening Levels) for Residential/ Nonresidential Cleanup Criteria (Criteria). Response Activities are included in Section 4.0 considering these exceedances.
Soil and groundwater concentrations are compared with applicable Criteria in Table 1 and Table 2, respectively. Sample locations, soil analytical results, and groundwater analytical results are depicted on Figure 2, Figure 3, and Figure 4, respectively.
3.2 Exposure Pathway Analysis
As shown in the comparison tables of Section 3.1, the maximum concentrations for soil resulted in the following pathway concerns.
Potential Receptors
Exposure Pathway
MDEQ Part 201 Cleanup Criteria
Exposure Pathway Complete or Incomplete
Onsite:
Recreational Use
Ingestion – drinking water
Nonresidential Drinking Water
Protection Criteria (DWP) and
Nonresidential Drinking Water Criteria (DWC)
Incomplete – groundwater wells are not utilized and cannot be installed in the future without further characterization.
Direct Contact with Soil
Residential Direct Contact Criteria
(DC)*
Incomplete – impacted soils with concentrations exceeding DC are located at 1-foot or greater depth.
Recreational users of the site are not likely to encounter soils at depth.
Volatilization to Indoor Air
Screening Values Published in EGLE Vapor Intrusion
Guidance Document**
Incomplete – site structures are intended to be removed or demolished. Future use cannot include the construction of structures in the vicinity of impacted soil or groundwater without additional characterization.
Onsite/Right-of- Way: Utility Worker
Direct Contact with Soil
Non-residential Direct Contact Criteria
Potentially Complete – Soil impacts exist onsite and in the right-of-way at concentrations that exceed non-residential direct contact criteria. This exposure pathway is potentially relevant for utility/construction conducted below grade in the vicinity of contamination. Response Activities are described in Section 4.
Surface Water Groundwater Impacting
Surface Water
Groundwater Surface Water Interface Criteria
(GSI)
Unknown – The GSI pathway was not characterized as part of this work. Based on historic characterization of the GSI pathway, it is not expected that the GSI pathway would result in an unacceptable exposure for human receptors (i.e., groundwater concentrations are not expected to impact surface waters in a manner that would result in a risk to recreational use, swimming, etc.)
* - While the property use will be nonresidential, or more appropriately recreational, nonresidential DC are developed for an adult worker and may not be protective of child receptors.
Unless site-specific recreational criteria are developed, it is appropriate to apply residential criteria for recreational exposure scenarios.
** - Screening Values published by EGLE reflect the best available science, and based on shallow groundwater characteristics, are more appropriate than Groundwater Volatilization to Indoor Air Criteria (GVIIC).

4.0 PLAN FOR RESPONSE ACTIVITIES
The plan for response activities describes how a property owner will satisfy obligations under Section 21304c(1)(c) regarding the intended use of the property and addresses the intended response activities that will be or have been conducted.
Groundwater Well Installation As part of site redevelopment, remaining groundwater wells on the subject property should be properly abandoned pursuant to local and state requirements. The future use of the property will not include the use of a groundwater well for potable or non-potable use.
Direct Contact Soils – Notice of Migration Soil contaminant concentrations onsite and in the right-of-way are present at concentrations that exceed residential and non-residential direct contact criteria. Because these concentrations are found at 1-foot or greater, they are not expected to represent a concern for recreational use (child and adult receptors) at the site. However, the concentrations exceed non-residential direct contact criteria, protective of an adult work, and with the presence of utilities in these areas, it is possible that unacceptable exposures could occur.
Third parties with easements, rights-of-way, utilities, etc. will be notified via a Notice of Migration to inform of the existence of soil impacts at concentrations that require specific consideration. Work conducted by third parties cannot exacerbate contamination.
Volatilization to Indoor Air Pathway All structures onsite will be removed or demolished. Future structures cannot be located in the area of groundwater and or soil contamination without additional characterization or the implementation of a mitigation system.
Soil Relocation Impacted site soils remain on the subject property as depicted on Figure 3 and discussed in Section 2.0.
Impacted soils cannot be moved on the property and will require proper disposal pursuant to local, state and federal requirements.
5.0 EVALUATION AND DEMONSTRATION OF COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 21304C(1)(C)
This section is an evaluation of the information in the previous sections that discuses and demonstrates how the proposed use satisfies obligations under Section 21304c(1)(b). The evaluation and demonstration of compliance is discussed below.
5.1 Exacerbation
The current and future site use is not expected to exacerbate the existing contamination or increase potential response costs. Additional delineation efforts took place as described in Section 2. Soil disturbances will consider the results of environmental investigations conducted to date and be conducted in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Contaminated soils will remain onsite undisturbed, and disturbed soils in areas of known impact will be appropriately characterized and transported offsite by a licensed waste hauler for disposal at a licensed facility
Torch River Bridge BAS – Copeland Acquisition Global Job #EE20009
Global Environmental Engineering Inc. Page 7 as required by applicable federal, state, and local regulations. Site drainage an subgrade utility installation will require the consideration of impacted soil and groundwater such that impacts will not be exacerbated.
5.2 Exercise Due Care
Information regarding the environmental condition of the property will be communicated and disclosed as is required by applicable local, state and federal law. The existence of the DDCC will also be communicated and a copy will be provided to subsurface workers and contractors upon request.
5.3 Reasonable Precautions
A copy of the Documentation of DDCC will be retained by the MDNR and be made available for review by third parties requiring information about site conditions. Copies of this document will be provided to future owners/operators or lessees of the site.
Based on the results of the soil and groundwater sampling at this site drinking water protection and groundwater surface water interface protection criteria were exceeded.
Additional safety measure for onsite works are not thought to be required.
5.4 Reasonable Cooperation, Assistance, and Access to Authorized Persons
The MDNR will provide reasonable cooperation, assistance, and access to the persons that are authorized to conduct response activities at the facility, including the cooperation and access necessary for the installation, integrity, operation, and maintenance of any complete or partial response activity at the facility.
5.5 Compliance with and Effectiveness/Integrity of Land Use or Resource Use Restrictions
At the time of this report, no recorded Land Use or Resource Use Restrictions are thought to exist at the subject property (i.e. restrictive covenants, etc.). Necessary response activities to avoid unacceptable exposure scenarios are described herein.
5.6 Notification Requirements
Rule 1013 – Notice of Discarded and/or Abandoned Containers
No evidence of discarded or abandoned containers were identified on the property;
therefore, no notice was filed.
Rule 1017 – Notice of Fire and Explosion Hazardous No known fire or explosion hazards exist on the property; therefore, no notice was filed.
Rule 1017 – Notice of Migration of Contamination Based on the potential for groundwater to migrate onto an adjoining parcel to the west and in an abundance of caution, a Notice of Migration of Contamination will be filed for the adjacent property to the east and to any easement holders.
Torch River Bridge BAS – Copeland Acquisition Global Job #EE20009
Global Environmental Engineering Inc. Page 8
Soil Movement Notice The removal or relocation of contaminated soil at the subject property will be conducted in accordance with this document and consistent with EGLE requirements.
5.7 Future Use Changes
If the future use of the property changes in a manner that the obligations, response activities, or due care described within this report are no longer applicable to the site conditions, this report will be revised.
6.0 RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the investigations conducted to date, response activities and measures for compliance with Due Care obligations as described herein will allow the safe redevelopment of the subject property. The recommendations for response activities are as follows:
Soil Disturbance/Relocation:
Figure 3 depicts the locations of known soil impacts on the subject property. The shaded areas are the estimated and known areas of impacted soil from near the surface and below. The remaining portion of the property is not believed to be impacted less than approximately 18-inches below grade. Impacted groundwater and soils below the water likely exist across the site.
Excavation activities that occur at greater than 18-inches or within the shaded portions of Figure 3 warrant additional characterization and proper disposal. Additional measures for worker safety are also warranted due to exceedances of direct contact criteria. These soils also cannot be relocated on the site. If evidence of soil impacts (i.e., staining, odor, etc.) are noted during excavation activities beyond the depiction of Figure 3 and the descriptions herein, additional characterization is needed.
Drinking Water Wells Because of exceedances for drinking water criteria, onsite drinking water wells should be properly abandoned and additional wells should not be installed.
Onsite Structures Due to soil and groundwater impacts, there are concerns related to the volatilization to indoor air pathway (VIAP). Therefore, buildings should not be constructed where impacts to soil and groundwater have been identified.
Global Environmental Engineering Inc. completed a Due Care Investigation and summarized the findings of past environmental work in this report to guide site development. All recommendations described herein are based on information available to Global at the time of this report.

RE: Visual Inspection and Final Clearance Testing, 12565 S. West Torch Lake Drive, Rapid City, Michigan;
ERG Project # 5714.001
Dear Ms. Auger:
On Tuesday, April 27, 2021, Environmental Resources Group, LLC. (ERG) performed a visual inspection and final clearance sampling after the removal of the following asbestos containing materials from the Garage:
36 square feet (s.f.) of window glazing compound, 260 s.f. of red linoleum and associated mastic, 53 s.f.
of drywall joint compound (and the associated non‐asbestos containing drywall), 210 s.f. of grey cement board, 25 s.f. of blue 9” x 9” floor tile and 15 s.f. of roof caulk. Additionally, a visual inspection was conducted in the Lodge when ACM was removed. The abatement was conducted by Mid‐State Asbestos
Removal (MAR) of St. Louis, Michigan.
The asbestos‐containing material from the Garage had been removed, the visual inspection successfully completed and clearance sampling conducted in the Garage. In the Lodge, the white window and door frame caulk had been successfully removed, but residue from the caulk on the glass blocks remained and the visual inspection was not considered successful inside the Lodge.
The final clearance air samples were collected and analyzed on‐site pursuant to the requirements of the modified NIOSH 7400 Method, Issue # 3. The analysis indicated that the airborne fiber concentrations within the Garage were below 0.05 fibers per cubic centimeter of air (f/cc), which is below the State of
Michigan requirement. In fact, airborne fiber concentrations were below 0.01 f/cc. As a point of reference, airborne fiber concentrations following asbestos removal in a K‐12 school building (where the most stringent EPA rules apply) must be below 0.01 f/cc. As such, the Garage may be safely re‐occupied.
In the Lodge, the contractor must return to reclean the glass block, paying particular attention to the mortar joints between the blocks. Your firm may conduct the visual inspection, and if successful, may release the building for re‐occupancy. As the caulk is not friable, no clearance testing is recommended or required.

Re: Visual Inspection and Final Clearance Teting Report (Asbestos) 12565 W. Torch Lake Drive & 12929 Cherry Avenue, Rapid City, Michigan
Dear Mr. Lincoln, Asbestos abatement was completed at the Torch River Bridge BAS – Copeland Acquisition, located at 12565 W. Torch Lake Drive & 12929 Cherry Avenue, Rapid City, Michigan on April 26, 2021. An Asbestos Visual Inspection and Final Clearance Testing was completed on April 27, 2021. The inspection report, attached, indicates that all asbestos-containing material was successfully removed from the garage with one exception described below. The air clearance sampling in the garage was conducted and airborne fiber concentrations were below the State of Michigan requirement.
Following the asbestos removal, a glass black wall in the lodge had asbestos containing caulk residue in the mortar joints. The asbestos abatement contactor returned to the site on approximately April 28, 2021 and removed the residue. Staff Scientist, Marnie Lawrence of Global Environmental Engineering Inc.
returned to the site on May 2, 2021 and confirmed the residue had been completely removed.
The asbestos removal and inspection are complete at this site.
Please contact me with any questions.
Sincerely, GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING INC.

PREVAILING WAGES
STATE OF MICHIGAN
Wage and Hour Division PO Box 30476
Lansing, MI 48909 517-284-7800
Informational Sheet: Prevailing Wages on DTMB Projects
WHD 9918 (2/22)
REQUIREMENTS
The purpose of establishing prevailing rates is to provide minimum rates of pay that must be paid to workers on Department of Technology, Management and Budget (DTMB) construction projects that are financed or financially supported by the state Prevailing rates are compiled from the rates contained in collectively bargained agreements which cover the locations of the state projects. Whi le the DTMB prevai l ing wage rates are compi led though surveys of col lect ive ly bargained agreements, a col lect ive bargain ing agreement is not required for contractors to be on or be awarded state pro jects. The prevailing rate schedule provides an hourly rate which includes wage and fringe benefit totals for designated construction mechanic classifications. The overtime rates also include wage and fringe benefit totals.
Please pay special attention to the overtime and premium pay requirements. The DTMB prevailing wage is satisfied when wages plus fringe benefits are equal to or greater than the required rate.
State of Michigan responsibilities:
• The department establishes the prevailing rate for each classification of construction mechanic requested by DTMB prior to contracts being let out for bid on a state project.
DTMB responsibilities
• If a contract is not awarded or construction does not start within 90 days of the date of the issuance of rates, a re- determination of rates must be requested by DTMB
• Rates for classifications needed but not provided on the DTMB Prevailing Rate Schedule, must be obtained prior to contracts being let out for bid on a state project.
Contractor responsibilities:
• Every contractor and subcontractor shall keep posted on the construction site, in a conspicuous place, a copy of all prevailing rates prescribed in a contract.
• Every contractor and subcontractor shall keep an accurate record showing the name and occupation of and the actual wages and benefits paid to each construction mechanic. This record shall be available for reasonable inspection by DTMB or the department.
• Each contractor or subcontractor is separately liable for the payment of the prevailing rate to its employees.
• The prime contractor is responsible for advising all subcontractors of the requirement to pay the prevailing rate prior to commencement of work.
• A construction mechanic shall only be paid the apprentice rate if registered with the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training and the rate is included in the contract.
Enforcement:
A person who has information of an alleged prevailing wage violation on a DTMB project may file a complaint with the State of Michigan. The department will investigate and attempt to resolve the complaint informally.
During the course of an investigation, if the requested records and posting certification are not made available in compliance with contractual requirements, the State may consider the Contactor to be in material breach of the contract and may terminate the contract for cause at the States sole discretion.

General Information Regarding Fringe Benefits
Certain fringe benefits may be credited toward the payment of the Prevailing Wage Rate:
o If a fringe benefit is paid directly to a construction mechanic o If a fringe benefit contribution or payment is made on behalf of a construction mechanic o If a fringe benefit, which may be provided to a construction mechanic, is pursuant to a written contract or policy o If a fringe benefit is paid into a fund, for a construction mechanic
When a fringe benefit is not paid by an hourly rate, the hourly credit will be calculated based on the annual value of the fringe benefit divided by 2080 hours per year (52 weeks @ 40 hours per week).
The following is an example of the types of fringe benefits allowed and how an hourly credit is calculated:
Vacation 40 hours X $14.00 per hour = $560/2080 = $.27 Dental insurance $31.07 monthly premium X 12 mos. = $372.84 /2080 = $.18 Vision insurance $5.38 monthly premium X 12 mos. = $64.56/2080 = $.03 Health insurance $230.00 monthly premium X 12 mos. = $2,760.00/2080 = $1.33 Life insurance $27.04 monthly premium X 12 mos. = $324.48/2080 = $.16 Tuition $500.00 annual cost/2080 = $.24 Bonus 4 quarterly bonus/year x $250 = $1000.00/2080 = $.48 401k Employer Contribution $2000.00 total annual contribution/2080 = $.96
Total Hourly Credit $3.65 Other examples of the types of fringe benefits allowed:
• Sick pay
• Holiday pay
• Accidental Death & Dismemberment insurance premiums
The following are examples of items that will not be credited toward the payment of the Prevailing Wage Rate o Legally required payments, such as:
• Unemployment Insurance payments
• Workers’ Compensation Insurance payments
• FICA (Social Security contributions, Medicare contributions) o Reimbursable expenses, such as:
• Clothing allowance or reimbursement
• Uniform allowance or reimbursement
• Gas allowance or reimbursement
• Travel time or payment
• Meals or lodging allowance or reimbursement
• Per diem allowance or payment o Other payments to or on behalf of a construction mechanic that are not wages or fringe benefits, such as:
• Industry advancement funds
• Financial or material loans
