Name of Recipient Agreement No.: XX-XXX-550 Project No.: C-06-XXXX-XXX EXHIBIT G—DAVIS-BACON REQUIREMENTS The Recipient shall have the primary responsibility to maintain payroll records as described in Section 3(ii)(A), below and for compliance as described in Section 5. Requirements Under The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2014 (P.L. 113-76) For Recipients That Are Governmental Entities: If a Recipient has questions regarding when David Bacon (DB) applies, obtaining the correct DB wage determinations, DB provisions, or compliance monitoring, it may contact the State Water Board. The Recipient may also obtain additional guidance from DOL's web site at http://www.dol.gov/whd/ 1. Applicability of the Davis- Bacon (DB) prevailing wage requirements. Under the FY 2014 Consolidated Appropriation Act, DB prevailing wage requirements apply to the construction, alteration, and repair of treatment works carried out in whole or in part with assistance made available by a State water pollution control revolving fund and to any construction project carried out in whole or in part by assistance made available by a drinking water treatment revolving loan fund. If the Recipient encounters a unique situation at a site that presents uncertainties regarding DB applicability, the Recipient must discuss the situation with the State Water Board before authorizing work on that site. 2. Obtaining Wage Determinations. (a) Recipients shall obtain the wage determination for the locality in which a covered activity subject to DB will take place prior to issuing requests for bids, proposals, quotes or other methods for soliciting contracts (solicitation) for activities subject to DB. These wage determinations shall be incorporated into solicitations and any subsequent contracts. Prime contracts must contain a provision requiring that subcontractors follow the wage determination incorporated into the prime contract. (i) While the solicitation remains open, the Recipient shall monitor www.wdol.qov weekly to ensure that the wage determination contained in the solicitation remains current. The Recipients shall amend the solicitation if DOL issues a modification more than 10 days prior to the closing date (i.e. bid opening)for the solicitation. If DOL modifies or supersedes the applicable wage determination less than 10 days prior to the closing date, the Recipients may request a finding from the State Water Board that there is not a reasonable time to notify interested contractors of the modification of the wage determination. The State Water Board will provide a report of its findings to the Recipient. (ii) If the Recipient does not award the contract within 90 days of the closure of the solicitation, any modifications or supersedes DOL makes to the wage determination contained in the solicitation shall be effective unless the State Water Board, at the request of the Recipient, obtains an extension of the 90 day period from DOL pursuant to 29 CFR 1.6(c)(3)(iv). The Recipient shall monitor www.wdol.qov on a weekly basis if it does not award the contract within 90 days of closure of the solicitation to ensure that wage determinations contained in the solicitation remain current. (b) If the Recipient carries out activity subject to DB by issuing a task order, work assignment or similar instrument to an existing contractor(ordering instrument) rather than by publishing a solicitation, the Recipient shall insert the appropriate DOL wage determination from www.wdol.gov into the ordering instrument.
