Nevada Davis-Bacon wage determination changes, 2026
The U.S. Department of Labor published 60 modifications to 58 of Nevada's Davis-Bacon wage determinations between May 18, 2026 and July 30, 2026 that changed, added or removed a rate. Across them, 515 rates went up, 4 went down, 885 rows were added and 712 removed.
From every revision of each WD on SAM.gov, compared row by row (rate identifier and classification) and read twice. 7 of these modifications are dated May 18, 2026, when DOL reissued most WDs. Totals are base plus fringe. A contract keeps the modification in its bid documents, so a later one only reaches new bids. Nevada prevailing wage rates by county

Questions about Nevada's Davis-Bacon changes
How often do Davis-Bacon wage rates change in Nevada?
Whenever DOL modifies a wage determination. Between May 18, 2026 and July 30, 2026, DOL published 60 modifications to 58 Nevada wage determinations that changed, added or removed a rate; 7 of them are dated May 18, 2026, when DOL reissued most WDs.
Which Nevada Davis-Bacon rate changed the most in 2026?
TILE FINISHER ZONE PAY: ZONE 1: FREE ZONE 0-40 MILES $0.00 ZONE 2: 41-50 MILES - $3.75 ZONE 3: 51-70 MILES - $5.00 ZONE (tile finisher) on NV20260001: $70.81 to $49.84 an hour in modification 2, published May 26, 2026, for building, highway and heavy construction.
Does a new modification change the rates on my contract?
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)).
Where are the official Nevada wage determinations?
On SAM.gov. Each row on this page links the new revision there and the one it replaced, and every Nevada rate page names its WD and modification.
