Special Prevailing Wage Determinations for your Mississippi Davis-Bacon project should be requested from the Federal Wage and Hour Division by the Contracting Agency or officer. Please note that the Davis-Bacon & Related Act provisions contain a conformance procedure in order to establish an enforceable wage and benefit rate for missing/unlisted classifications.
To request Wage Determination for your project, a Standard Form 308 (SF-308) “Request for Determination and Response to Request” should be used by the agency (normally a federal agency). The completed SF-308 should be sent to: U.S. Department of Labor, Employment Standards Administration, Wage and Hour Division, Branch of Construction Wage Determinations, Washington, D.C. 20210.
Project decisions are applicable only to the particular project for which they are issued and are effective for 180 days. If a project decision is not used in the period of its effectiveness, it is void. The contractor must initiate the request by submitting a Request for Authorization of Additional Classification and Rate (SF1444) to the Contracting Officer or Agency.
