These prevailing rates of wage were effective for public works projects bid on or after September 1, 2010. On November 12, 2010, the industrial statistician and director of labor and industries made a correction to these rates. Pursuant [to] WAC 296-127-011, the corrected rates will become effective thirty days from the publication date, on December 12, 2010.This wage rate correction affects the trades construction site surveyors in Pierce and Thurston counties.
Every contractor and subcontractor on every public works project must file a statement of intent to pay prevailing wages and an affidavit of wages paid. Both forms must be filed on every project. The filing of the affidavit of wages paid does not set aside the requirement to also file the statement of intent to pay prevailing wages. The department may fine contractors $500 for failure to file these forms.
