Davis-Bacon cement mason rate in Sheridan County
Federally funded or assisted construction here uses the U.S. Department of Labor's wage determinations. Wyoming's Act doesn't apply where it conflicts with federal prevailing wage rules (W.S. 27-4-413); federal jobs use DWS's federal-project columns and the Davis-Bacon rate.
We don't put a federal figure next to DWS's here, because the federal determination lists more than one rate for this trade here. The federal rows for this trade are below; match the classification to the work.
