Davis-Bacon prevailing wage rates in Coconino County, Arizona

4 Davis-Bacon wage determinations cover Coconino County for building, residential, highway and heavy construction, with 123 rates across 18 trades. Of each trade's main rate, plumber or pipefitter is the highest at $72.15 an hour and brick tender the lowest at $12.77, base plus fringe.

The Department of Labor modifies these determinations on SAM.gov in weekly batches through the year; the latest Arizona 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.

Davis-Bacon is the only prevailing wage here (federally funded or assisted work). Arizona bars its agencies and political subdivisions from requiring a prevailing wage (A.R.S. 34-321).
