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) (11)).

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 a union rate (current union negotiated rate for lecal),
a survey rate (weighted average rate) or a union average rat:
(weighted union average rate).

Union Rate Identifiers

A four letter classification abbreviation idevic. Tier enclosed
in dotted lines beginning with characters cv er chan "3U" or
"UAVG" denotes that the union classification « 4d rave were
prevailing for that classification in tie s. vey Example:
PLUMQ@198-0@5 07/01/2014. PLUM is an 2. %reviat on identifier of
the union which prevailed in the survey ‘or tiis
classification, which in this example wou_4voe Plumbers. 0198
indicates the local union number or district council number
where applicable, i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number,
@8@5 in the example, is an internal number used in processing
the wage determination. 07/01/2014 is the effective date of the
most current negotiated rate, which in this example is July 1,
2014.

Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all rate
changes in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) governing
this classification and rate.

Survey Rate Identifiers

Classifications listed under the "SU" identifier indicate that
no one rate prevailed for this classification in the survey and
the published rate is derived by computing a weighted average
rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that
classification. As this weighted average rate includes all
rates reported in the survey, it may include both union and
non-union rates. Example: SULA2@12-@@7 5/13/2014. SU indicates
