The Davis-Bacon ;Act requires Federal agencies to pay workers under ;contract to them the �prevailing wage �€ based on the local union wage scale ;defined by the U.S. Department of Labor. Generally, the provisions of the ;Davis-Bacon Act do not apply to State or local contracts for work completed ;using public assistance funds under the Stafford Act. However, the provisions ;may apply to contracts let by other Federal agencies, such as the U.S. Army ;Corps of Engineers. If a State or local government incorporates prevailing ;wage rates of the U.S. Department of Labor as part of its normal practice for ;all contracts, regardless of funding source, then those rates would be ;eligible.
