Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within the scope of the classifications listed may be added after award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses (29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (ii)).

The body of each wage determination lists the classification and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the cited type(s) of construction in the area covered by the wage determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical order of "identifiers" that indicate whether the particular rate is union or non-union.

Union Identifiers

An identifier enclosed in dotted lines beginning with characters other than "SU" denotes that the union classification and rate have found to be prevailing for that classification. Example: PLUM0198-005 07/01/2011. The first four letters , PLUM, indicate the international union and the four-digit number, 0198, that follows indicates the local union number or district council number where applicable , i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number, 005 in the example, is an internal number used in processing the wage determination.

The date, 07/01/2011, following these characters is the effective date of the most current negotiated rate/collective bargaining agreement which would be July 1, 2011 in the above example.

Union prevailing wage rates will be updated to reflect any changes in the collective bargaining agreements governing the rates.

0000/9999: weighted union wage rates will be published annually each January.

Non-Union Identifiers

Classifications listed under an "SU" identifier were derived from survey data by computing average rates and are not union rates; however, the data used in computing these rates may include both union and non-union data. Example: SULA2004-007 5/13/2010. SU indicates the rates are not union majority rates, LA indicates the State of Louisiana; 2004 is the year of the survey; and 007 is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. A 1993 or later date, 5/13/2010, indicates the classifications and rates under that identifier were issued as a General Wage Determination on that date.

Survey wage rates will remain in effect and will not change until a new survey is conducted.

WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS

1.) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can be:

* an existing published wage determination

* a survey underlying a wage determination

* a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on a wage determination matter

* a conformance (additional classification and rate) ruling

On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests for summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and Hour Regional Office for the area in which the survey was conducted because those Regional Offices have responsibility for the Davis-Bacon survey program. If the response from this initial contact is not satisfactory, then the process described in 2.)

and 3.) should be followed.

With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formal process described here, initial contact should be with the Branch of Construction Wage Determinations. Write to:

Branch of Construction Wage Determinations Wage and Hour Division U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.

Washington, DC 20210

2.) If the answer to the question in 1.) is yes, then an interested party (those affected by the action) can request review and reconsideration from the Wage and Hour Administrator (See 29 CFR Part 1.8 and 29 CFR Part 7). Write to:

Wage and Hour Administrator U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.

Washington, DC 20210

The request should be accompanied by a full statement of the interested party's position and by any information (wage payment data, project description, area practice material, etc.) that the requestor considers relevant to the issue.

3.) If the decision of the Administrator is not favorable, an interested party may appeal directly to the Administrative Review Board (formerly the Wage Appeals Board). Write to:

Administrative Review Board U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.

Washington, DC 20210

4.) All decisions by the Administrative Review Board are final.

This includes all common industrial/commercial-level fixtures, water supply piping, and various types of waste water drainage systems, backflow preventions devices, and common fire sprinkler systems. This work shall also include water, waste-water, or fire protection distribution systems or components inside the general footprint of the facility, which may or may not be within the five-foot line of a building.

1.2.3 New construction, rehabilitation or repair of building fire suppression system and associated components. This work includes design, performance, installation, maintenance and/or repair of automatic fire sprinkler systems, fire pumps, fire backflow preventer, building fire water distribution system, site underground distribution system, control valves, fire hydrants, water flow test, meters, test connections, smoke detectors, mass notification system, fire alarm system, building control panel and alarm system connection to base UMCS.

1.2.4 New construction, rehabilitation or repair services of Building Automation System (BAS) Direct Digital Controls (DDC) system. This work includes the design, installation, maintenance and/or repair of the Building Automation System. This includes programming building controls to perform scheduling, alarming, trending, integrating building-level controllers (UNT, VAV, AHU, etc.), installing workstation with LonWorks based software protocols, control hardware components, provide I/O point schedule, tie-in to base-wide UMCS, conduct performance verification testing, and controls commissioning.

1.2.5 The scope of this work may also include all types of Commissioning. The types of Commissioning required may include but is not limited to the following:

1.2.5.1 Total Building Commissioning (Cx)

Total building commissioning includes additional essential buildings systems such as the building's exterior wall, plumbing, acoustical and roofing systems. Commissioning these additional systems can reduce moisture penetration, infiltration and noise problems, and contribute to the building's energy and resource efficiency and occupant productivity.

Successful Cx results in optimal energy efficiency, indoor environmental quality, reduced change orders during construction, extended systems life and reduced operation and maintenance costs, often paying for itself before construction is completed. To be most effective, building commissioning begins in the planning phase and continues through design, construction, startup, acceptance, training and the warranty period, and continues throughout a building's life cycle.

1.2.5.2 Retro-commissioning (RCx), or Existing Building Commissioning

RCx includes an audit of the entire building including a study of past utility bills, interviews with facility personnel. Then diagnostic monitoring and functional tests of building systems are executed and analyzed. Building systems are retested and remonitored to fine-tune improvements. This process helps find and repair operational problems. The identification of more complex problems are presented to the owner as well. A final report, recommissioning plan and schedule are then given to the owner.

1.2.5.3 Recommissioning

Building systems can be purchased from different vendors, installed by different contractors and operated by different facilities staff, who are under pressure to resolve occupant complaints about comfort. Quick fixes may resolve an individual complaint, but can lead to other systems becoming out of balance and losing the persistence of benefits from initial building commissioning or retro-commissioning. Additionally, building systems require periodic analysis and adjustment.

1.2.5.4 Ongoing Commissioning

Ongoing commissioning, also referred to as "retro-commissioning follow-up," is continual retro-commissioning focusing on the persistence of completed improvements.

Ongoing commissioning involves regularly scheduled sessions with the building occupants along with operation and maintenance personnel. This process incorporates monitoring and analysis of building performance data provided by permanently installed metering equipment to verify building performance, the satisfaction of the facilities management and staff, and the extent of actual savings.

1.3 New construction, rehabilitation or repair incidental to the tasks performed in paragraph 1.2.

This work shall include, but is not limited to, carpentry, painting, lighting, and similar minor electrical work that may be required to provide a complete and usable facility during the course of other mechanical or plumbing required by this contract. Construction tasks are not considered incidental to the commissioning tasks stated in paragraph 1.2.5

1.4 All Task Orders issued will be Firm Fixed Price Construction. Work to be performed throughout the South Atlantic Division of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Work may also be performed at other Federal facilities outside the above stated geographical boundary.

1.5 Restrictions: Task orders for design only, demolition only, or commissioning only shall not be placed against the contract.
