Davis-Bacon prevailing wage rates in Rose Island, American Samoa
One Davis-Bacon wage determination covers Rose Island for building, residential, highway and heavy construction, with 12 rates across 9 trades. Of each trade's main rate, bricklayer is the highest at $6.30 an hour and teamster the lowest at $6.30, base plus fringe.
The Department of Labor modifies these determinations on SAM.gov in weekly batches through the year; the latest American Samoa modification we hold is dated May 18, 2026. A contract keeps the wage determination in its bid documents. Modifications published before bid opening apply to it, though one published less than 10 days before can be left out if the agency finds there isn't time to tell bidders (29 CFR 1.6(c)). Checked against sam.gov on October 25, 2026.
These are the federal Davis-Bacon rates for American Samoa, for federally funded or assisted construction. We haven't checked whether American Samoa also sets its own.
