On September 5, 2008, the Washington State Department of Labor and Industries made corrections to the August 31, 2008 prevailing wage rates for three classifications (carpenters, lathers, drywall tapers) by lowering the rates by five cents an hour. This only affects the following counties: Adams, Asotin, Benton, Columbia, Ferry, Franklin, Garfield, Grant, Lincoln, Okanogan, Pend Oreille, Spokane, Stevens, Walla Walla, and Whitman.
In addition, L&I also made corrections to the March 2, 2008 apprentice rates for Plumbers in King and Clallam counties. These changes were effective on September 4, 2008.
These change raise a number of operational issues for public agencies and contractors, especially the one changing the March 2, 2008 rates after the August 31, 2008 rates have gone into effect. See my earlier post on the subject of changes and corrections to the prevailing wage rates.
