Wage determination IN20260006, modification 3, published July 30, 2026, for highway and heavy construction; rate identifier TEAM0135-003 (April 1, 2025). Checked against sam.gov on October 25, 2026.
Davis-Bacon is the only prevailing wage here (federally funded or assisted work). Indiana repealed its Common Construction Wage Act effective July 1, 2015, and IC 5-16-7.2-5 bars public agencies from setting wage scales (Indiana DOL).
DOL lists 12 teamster rates for Jackson County, from $55.05 to $55.70 an hour. See all of them.
Base wage and fringe benefits: $34.69 + $20.51
The base wage is the taxable hourly wage. DOL prints the fringe benefits as one hourly figure, not itemized; it can go to health, pension, vacation and training plans, or be paid as cash where the state allows.
| Base wage (taxable) | $34.69 |
| Fringe benefits (one figure, not itemized) | $20.51 |
| Base + fringe benefits (our sum; DOL prints no total) | $55.20 |
When does this rate change?
- 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)).
- DOL changes a WD by publishing a numbered modification on SAM.gov. This page reads the modification named in the Source line; the Indiana change log lists what each one changed.
