Landscape & Irrigation Laborer prevailing wage, Hardin County group, Ohio (2 counties)
DOL sets the same landscape and irrigation laborer rates, row for row, in 2 counties: Hardin and Paulding. Every figure on this page applies in each of them.
$10.39an hour, base wage + fringe benefits (our sum)
$10.39 base wage + $0.00 fringe benefits · SUOH2012-068
On federally funded or assisted building construction in each of these 2 counties, a landscape and irrigation laborer must be paid at least $10.39 an hour: a $10.39 base wage plus $0.00 in fringe benefits, under wage determination OH20260066 (modification 1). DOL prints no total, so $10.39 is our sum of the two.
Wage determination OH20260066, modification 1, published May 18, 2026, for building construction; rate identifier SUOH2012-068 (August 29, 2014). Checked against sam.gov on October 25, 2026.
Ohio also sets its own rates (ORC 4115, Department of Commerce); on jobs covered by both, pay the higher. Ohio's rates sit behind an OHID login on its prevailing wage portal, so this site shows the Davis-Bacon rates only.
- This base is below $13.65, the Executive Order 13658 minimum. Contracts that order covers must pay at least that (see the WD's note).
Base wage and fringe benefits: $10.39 + $0.00
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) | $10.39 |
| Base + fringe benefits (our sum; DOL prints no total) | $10.39 |
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 Ohio change log lists what each one changed.
