DOL sets the same landscape and irrigation laborer rates, row for row, in 2 counties: Brooke and Hancock. Every figure on this page applies in each of them.

$41.14an hour, base wage + fringe benefits (our sum)

$24.94 base wage + $16.20 fringe benefits · LABO0379-015

DOL prints no total, so $41.14 is our sum of the two.
