SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Davis-Bacon and related Acts
(DBRA) require the application of DavisBacon labor standards to federal and
federally assisted construction. The
Copeland Act (40 U.S.C. 3145) requires
the Secretary of Labor to prescribe
reasonable regulations for contractors
and subcontractors engaged in
construction work subject to DavisBacon labor standards. While the federal
contracting or assistance-administering
agencies have a primary responsibility
for enforcement of Davis-Bacon labor
standards, Reorganization Plan Number
14 of 1950 assigns to the Secretary of
Labor responsibility for developing
government-wide policies,
interpretations and procedures to be
observed by the contracting and
assisting agencies, in order to assure
coordination of administration and
consistency of DBRA enforcement.
The Copeland Act provision cited
above specifically requires the

VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 250001

regulations to ‘‘include a provision that
each contractor and subcontractor each
week must furnish a statement on the
wages paid each employee during the
prior week.’’ This requirement is
implemented by 29 CFR 3.3 and 3.4 and
the standard Davis-Bacon contract
clauses set forth at 29 CFR 5.5.
Regulations 29 CFR 5.5(a)(3)(ii)(A)
requires contractors to submit weekly a
copy of all payrolls to the federal agency
contracting for or financing the
construction project. If the agency is not
a party to the contract, the contractor
will submit the payrolls to the
applicant, sponsor, or owner, as the case
may be, for transmission to the
contracting agency. This same section
requires that the payrolls submitted
shall set out accurately and completely
the information required to be
maintained under 29 CFR 5.5(a)(3)(i),
except that full social security numbers
and home addresses shall not be
included on weekly transmittals, and
instead, the payrolls shall only need to
include an individually identifying
number for each employee (e.g., the last
four digits of the employee’s social
security number). The required weekly
payroll information may be submitted in
any form desired. Optional Form WH–
347 is available for this purpose from
the Wage and Hour Division website at
https://www.dol.gov/sites/dolgov/files/
WHD/legacy/files/wh347.pdf.
The regulations at 29 CFR 3.3(b)
require each contractor to furnish
weekly a signed ‘‘Statement of
Compliance’’ accompanying the payroll
indicating the payrolls are correct and
complete and that each laborer or
mechanic has been paid not less than
the proper Davis-Bacon Act prevailing
wage rate for the work performed. The
weekly submission of a properly
executed certification, with the
prescribed language set forth on page 2
of Optional Form WH–347, satisfies the
requirement for submission of the
required ‘‘Statement of Compliance’’. Id.
at §§ 3.3(b), 3.4(b), and 5.5(a)(3)(ii)(B).
Regulations 29 CFR 3.4(b) and
5.5(a)(3)(i) require contractors to
maintain these records for three years
after completion of the work.
II. Review Focus
The Department of Labor is
particularly interested in comments
which:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;

PO 00000

Frm 00067

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
III. Current Actions
The Department of Labor seeks an
approval for the extension of this
information collection in order to
ensure effective administration of the
Davis-Bacon Act.
