Incorporating the required contract provisions contained in Section E into subcontracts by reference is not acceptable. Federal Prevailing Wages are required on this contract. If there is a difference between the minimum wage rates predetermined by the Secretary of Labor and prevailing wage rates determined by the Department of Industrial Relations for similar classifications of labor, the Contractor and his subcontractors shall pay no less than the higher wage rate. This includes "helper" (or other classifications based on hours of experience) or any other classification not appearing in the Federal wage determinations.

Recognized holidays and holiday premium rates vary by craft/classi-fication and are defined within the applicable collective bargaining agreement referenced by the DIR wage determination. County-recognized holidays do not independently establish prevailing wage holiday pay requirements. Contractors are responsible for reviewing the DIR prevailing wage determinations, including holiday provisions, prior to performing work on Saturdays, Sundays, or holidays. The federal prevailing wage rates are available directly from the System for Award Management (SAM) Home Page at: https://sam.gov The Board of Supervisors has ascertained, pursuant to Section 1773 of the Labor Code, the general prevailing wage rates for straight time, overtime, Saturday, Sunday and holiday work applicable to the work to be done in Butte County are the same as the general prevailing wage rates as determined by the California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR).
