BOLI book of September 3, 2026 with the October 5, 2026 amendment; this rate, effective September 3, 2026. A project generally uses the rates in effect when its bid specifications were first advertised, for the whole project (OAR 839-025-0020). Checked against oregon.gov on October 25, 2026.
Base wage and fringe: $44.42 + $23.01

| Fringe benefits (one figure, not itemized) | $23.01 |
| Base + fringe (our sum; BOLI prints no total) | $67.43 |
Davis-Bacon tile setter rates in these counties
The counties share BOLI's rates, but not always the same federal wage determination. On projects that are also federal, Oregon requires the higher of the state and the federal rate, and the specifications must contain both (ORS 279C.830, 279C.838).
