The Washington State Department of Labor and Industries announced on April 18, 2008 an error in their prevailing wage rates published and effective on March 2, 2008 for 14 Washington counties.
The error affects the prevailing wage rate for Final Detail Cleanup Laborer (i.e. dusting, vacuuming, window cleaning; NOT construction debris cleanup).
The correct prevailing wage rate for this classification is $27.11 per hour.
This error affects only the following Washington counties:
Adams
Asotin
Benton
Columbia
Ferry
Franklin
Garfield
Grant
Lincoln
Pend Oreille
Spokane
Stevens
Walla Walla
Whitman
If you are a public agency in one of these counties, you may want to review the bidding documents for any project that you bid with the 03-02-08 wage rates. Compare the hard copy of the wage rates that you published in the bidding documents with the corrected $27.11 per hour for Final Detail Cleanup Laborer. In the event you find that any bidding documents included an incorrect prevailing wage rate, it's probably a good idea to issue a no-cost change order incorporating in the correct wage rate.
