Wage Determination TX20250234.pdf

This is a Davis-Bacon Act wage determination (TX20250234) for building construction projects in Brazos County, Texas, effective January 3, 2025. The determination applies to construction projects excluding single-family homes and apartments up to 4 stories.

The wage determination establishes two key minimum wage rates based on contract timing: For contracts entered/renewed after January 30, 2022, contractors must pay workers at least $17.75 per hour under Executive Order 14026. For contracts awarded between January 1, 2015 and January 29, 2022 (without renewal), contractors must pay at least $13.30 per hour under Executive Order 13658. The document provides detailed wage rates for specific construction trades, including boilermakers ($37.00/hour plus $24.64 fringe), elevator mechanics ($51.32/hour plus $37.885 fringe plus additional benefits), and various other skilled trades. The determination also includes provisions for paid sick leave requirements and explains the wage determination appeals process. This wage determination appears to be specifically associated with a Bureau of Prisons construction project at FPC Bryan for replacing utility piping under housing units.
