into retained adjoining construction in a manner that will eliminate evidence of patching and
refinishing.
a. Clean piping, conduit, and similar features before applying paint or other finishing
materials.
b. Restore damaged pipe covering to its original condition.
3. Floors and Walls: Where walls or partitions that are removed extend one finished area into
another, patch and repair floor and wall surfaces in the new space. Provide an even surface of
uniform finish, color, texture, and appearance. Remove in-place floor and wall coverings and
replace with new materials, if necessary, to achieve uniform color and appearance.
a. Where patching occurs in a painted surface, apply primer and intermediate paint coats
over the patch and apply final paint coat over entire unbroken surface containing the
patch. Provide additional coats until patch blends with adjacent surfaces.
4. Ceilings: Patch, repair, or rehang in-place ceilings as necessary to provide an even-plane
surface of uniform appearance.
5. Exterior Building Enclosure: Patch components in a manner that restores enclosure to a
weather tight condition.

hours prior to testing.
c. In addition to the testing identified in section 1.3, the following tests shall be performed to verify the
quality of the finished product:
1) Core pipe/insulation bond:
a) Two 6-inch lengths of cured insulated pipe shall be cut from one uncoated insulation face
end of completed pipe length. The remaining length shall be trimmed according to the
dimensional tolerances of this specification and coated to allow Owner use of that pipe
section.
b) One specimen shall be tested at +70°F. The other specimen shall be brought to -60°F in 4
hours or less, and remain there for at least 24 hours before testing. Acceptance will be

TO ALL CONTRACTING AGENCIES:
At the Alaska Department of Labor and Workforce Development, our goal is putting Alaskans to work. This
pamphlet is designed to help contractors awarded public construction contracts understand the most significant
laws of the State of Alaska pertaining to prevailing wage and resident hire requirements.
This pamphlet identifies current prevailing wage rates and resident hire classifications for public construction
contracts (any construction projects awarded by the State of Alaska or its political subdivisions, such as local
governments and certain non-profit organizations). Because these rates may change, this publication is printed in
the spring and fall of every year, so please be sure you are using the appropriate rates. The rates published in this
edition become effective September 1, 2015.
All projects with a final bid date of September 11, 2015, or later, must pay the prevailing wage rates contained in
this pamphlet. As the law now provides, these rates will remain stable during the life of a contract or for 24
calendar months, whichever is shorter. The 24 months period begins on the date the prime contract is
awarded.Upon expiration of the initial 24-month period, the latest wage rates issued by the department shall
become effective for a subsequent 24-month period or until the original contract is completed, whichever occurs
first. This process shall be repeated until the original contract is completed.
including changes of work scope, additions, extensions, change orders, and other instruments agreed to by the
parties that have not been subject to subsequent open bid procedures.
If a higher federal rate is required due to partial federal funding or other federal participation, the higher rate
must be paid.
For additional copies of this pamphlet, contact the nearest office of the Division of Labor Standards and Safety,

A contractor who violates this chapter is guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction is punishable by a fine of
not less than $100 nor more than $1,000, or by imprisonment for not less than 10 days nor more than 90 days, or
by both. Each day a violation exists constitutes a separate offense.
Sec. 36.05.070. Wage rates in specifications and contracts for public works.
(a) The advertised specifications for a public construction contract that requires or involves the employment
of mechanics, laborers, or field surveyors must contain a provision stating the minimum wages to be
paid various classes of laborers, mechanics, or field surveyors and that the rate of wages shall be
adjusted to the wage rate under AS 36.05.010.
(b) Repealed by §17 ch 142 SLA 1972.
(c) A public construction contract under (a) of this section must contain provisions that
(1) the contractor or subcontractors of the contractor shall pay all employees unconditionally and not
less than once a week;
(2) wages may not be less than those stated in the advertised specifications, regardless of the
contractual relationship between the contractor or subcontractors and laborers, mechanics, or field
surveyors;
(3) the scale of wages to be paid shall be posted by the contractor in a prominent and easily accessible
place at the site of the work;
(4) the state or a political subdivision shall withhold so much of the accrued payments as is necessary
to pay to laborers, mechanics, or field surveyors employed by the contractor or subcontractors the
difference between
(A) the rates of wages required by the contract to be paid laborers, mechanics, or field surveyors
on the work; and
(B) the rates of wages in fact received by laborers, mechanics, or field surveyors.
Sec. 36.05.080. Failure to pay agreed wages.
Every contract within the scope of AS 36.05.070 shall contain a provision that if it is found that a laborer,
mechanic, or field surveyor employed by the contractor or subcontractor has been or is being paid a rate of wages
less than the rate of wages required by the contract to be paid, the state or its political subdivision may, by written
notice to the contractor, terminate the contractor’s right to proceed with the work or the part of the work for which
there is a failure to pay the required wages and to prosecute the work to completion by contract or otherwise, and
the contractor and the contractor’s sureties are liable to the state or its political subdivision for excess costs for
completing the work.
Sec. 36.05.090. Payment of wages from withheld payments and listing contractors who violate contracts.
(a) The state disbursing officer in the case of a state public construction contract and the local fiscal officer
in the case of a political subdivision public construction contract shall pay directly to laborers,
mechanics, or field surveyors from accrued payments withheld under the terms of the contract the wages
due laborers, mechanics, or field surveyors under AS 36.05.070.
(b) The state disbursing officer or the local fiscal officer shall distribute to all departments of the state
government and to all political subdivisions of the state a list giving the names of persons who have
disregarded their obligations to employees. A person appearing on this list and a firm, corporation,
v
partnership, or association in which the person has an interest may not work as a contractor or
subcontractor on a public construction contract for the state or a political subdivision of the state until
three years after the date of publication of the list. If the accrued payments withheld under the contract
are insufficient to reimburse all the laborers, mechanics, or field surveyors with respect to whom there
has been a failure to pay the wages required under AS 36.05.070, the laborers, mechanics, or field
surveyors have the right of action or intervention or both against the contractor and the contractor’s
sureties conferred by law upon persons furnishing labor or materials, and in the proceedings it is not a
defense that the laborers, mechanics, or field surveyors accepted or agreed to accept less than the
required rate of wages or voluntarily made refunds.
Sec. 36.05.900. Definition.
In this chapter, “contracting agency” means the state or a political subdivision of the state that has entered into a
public construction contract with a contractor.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
LABORER CLASSIFICATION CLARIFICATION
The laborer rates categorized in class code S1201-S1206 apply in one area of Alaska; the area that is south of N63
latitude and west of W138 Longitude. The laborer rates categorized in class code N1201-N1206 apply in two
areas of Alaska; the Alaska areas north of N63 latitude and east of W138 longitude. The following graphic
representations should assist with clarifying the applicable wage rate categories:
S1201-
S1206
N1201-
N1206
ACCOMMODATIONS AND PER DIEM
The Alaska Department of Labor and Workforce Development has adopted a per diem requirement for
blocklayers, bricklayers, carpenters, dredgemen, heat & frost insulators/asbestos workers, ironworkers, laborers,
operative plasterers & cement masons, painters, piledrivers, power equipment operators, roofers, surveyors, truck
vi
drivers/surveyors, and tunnel workers. This per diem rate creates an allowable alternative to providing board and
lodging under the following conditions:
Employer-Provided Camp or Suitable Accommodations
Unless otherwise approved by the Commissioner, the employer shall ensure that a worker who is employed
on a project that is 65 road miles or more from the international airport in either Fairbanks, Juneau or
Anchorage or is inaccessible by road in a 2-wheel drive vehicle and who is not a domiciled resident of the
locality of the project shall receive meals and lodging. Lodging shall be in accordance with all applicable
state and federal laws. In cases where the project site is not road accessible, but the employee can
reasonably get to the project worksite from their permanent residence within one hour, the Commissioner
may waive these requirements for that employee upon a written request from the employer.
The term “domiciled resident” means a person living within 65 road miles of the project, or in the case of a
highway project, the mid-point of the project, for at least 12 consecutive months prior to the award of the
project. However, if the employer or person provides sufficient evidence to convince the department that a
person has established a permanent residence and an intent to remain indefinitely within the distance to be
considered a “domiciled resident,” the employer shall not be required to provide meals and lodging or pay
per diem.
Where the employer provides or furnishes board, lodging or any other facility, the cost or amount thereof
shall not be considered or included as part of the required prevailing wage basic hourly rate and cannot be
applied to meet other fringe benefit requirements. The taxability of employer provided board and lodging
shall be determined by the appropriate taxation enforcement authority.
Per Diem
Employers are encouraged to use commercial facilities and lodges; however, when such facilities are not
available, per diem in lieu of meals and lodging must be paid at the basic rate of $75.00 per day, or part
thereof, the worker is employed on the project. Per diem shall not be allowed on highway projects west of
Livengood on the Elliott Highway, at Mile 0 of the Dalton Highway to the North Slope of Alaska, north of
Mile 20 on the Taylor Highway, east of Chicken, Alaska, on the Top of the World Highway and south of
Tetlin Junction to the Alaska-Canada border.
The above-listed standards for room and board and per diem only apply to the crafts as identified in Pamphlet
600,Laborers’ and Mechanics’ Minimum Rates of Pay. Other crafts working on public construction projects
shall be provided room and board at remote sites based on the department’s existing policy guidelines. In the
event that a contractor provides lodging facilities, but no meals, the department will accept payment of $36 per
day for meals to meet the per diem requirements.
APPRENTICE HIRING REQUIREMENTS
On July 24, 2005, Administrative Order No. 226 established a 15 percent goal for hiring apprentices in certain job
categories on highway, airport, harbor, dam, tunnel, utility or dredging projects awarded by the Alaska
Department of Transportation and Public Facilities that exceed $2.5 million. This Order will apply to all projects
in the referenced categories that are advertised after September 1, 2005. On these projects, the hours worked by
apprentices will be compared to the hours worked by journeyman level workers to determine if the 15 percent
goal has been met. This on-the-job training goal is critical to ensure that the Alaska work force is prepared for the
future. For additional details, contact the nearest Wage and Hour office at the address listed on Page xi of this
publication. Administrative Order No. 226 may be viewed in its entirety on the Internet at
http://www.gov.state.ak.us/admin-orders/226.html or call any Wage and Hour office to receive a copy.
vii
APPRENTICE RATES
Apprentice rates at less than the minimum prevailing rates may be paid to apprentices according to an apprentice
program which has been registered and approved by the Commissioner of the Alaska Department of Labor and
Workforce Development in writing or according to a bona fide apprenticeship program registered with the U.S.
Department of Labor, Office of Apprenticeship. Any employee listed on a payroll at an apprentice wage rate
who is not registered as above shall be paid the journeyman prevailing minimum wage in that work
classification.Wage rates are based on prevailing crew makeup practices in Alaska and apply to work performed
regardless of either the quality of the work performed by the employee or the titles or classifications which may
be assigned to individual employees.
FRINGE BENEFIT PLANS
Contractors/subcontractors may compensate fringe benefits to their employees in any one of three methods. The
fringe benefits may be paid into a union trust fund, into an approved benefit plan, or paid directly on the paycheck
as gross wages.
Where fringe benefits are paid into approved plans, funds, or programs including union trust funds, the payments
must be contributed at least monthly. If contractors submit their own payroll forms and are paying fringe benefits
into approved plans, funds, or programs, the employer’s certification must include, in addition to those
requirements of 8 AAC 30.020(c), a statement that fringe benefit payments have been or will be paid at least
monthly. Contractors who pay fringe benefits to a plan must ensure the plan is one approved by the Internal
Revenue Service and that the plan meets the requirements of 8 AAC 30.025 (eff. 3/2/08) in order for payments to
be credited toward the prevailing wage obligation.
SPECIAL PREVAILING WAGE RATE DETERMINATION
Special prevailing wage rate determinations may be requested for special projects or a special worker
classification if the work to be performed does not conform to traditional public construction for which a
prevailing wage rate has been established under 8 AAC 30.050(a) of this section. Requests for special wage rate
determinations must be in writing and filed with the Commissioner at least 30 days before the award of the
contract. An applicant for a special wage rate determination shall have the responsibility to support the necessity
for the special rate. An application for a special wage rate determination filed under this section must contain:
(1) a specification of the contract or project on which the special rates will apply and a description of the
work to be performed;
(2) a brief narrative explaining why special wage rates are necessary;
(3) the job class or classes involved;
(4) the special wage rates the applicant is requesting, including survey or other relevant wage data to
support the requested rates;
(5) the approximate number of employees who would be affected; and
(6) any other information which might be helpful in determining if special wage rates are appropriate.
Requests made pursuant to the above should be addressed to:

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR & WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT
ALASKA EMPLOYMENT PREFERENCE INFORMATION
By authority of AS 36.10.150 and 8 AAC 30.064, the Commissioner of Labor and Workforce Development has
determined the State of Alaska to be a Zone of Underemployment. A Zone of Underemployment requires that
Alaska residents who are eligible under AS 36.10.140 be given a minimum of 90 percent employment preference on
public works contracts throughout the state in certain job classifications. This 90 percent Alaska resident hiring
preference applies on a project-by-project, craft-by-craft or occupational basis and must be met each
workweek by each contractor/subcontractor in each of the following classifications:
Boilermakers Electricians Laborers Roofers
Bricklayers
Carpenters
Engineers & Architects
Equipment Operators
Mechanics
Millwrights
Sheet Metal Workers
Surveyors
Cement Masons
Culinary Workers
Foremen & Supervisors
Insulation Workers
Painters
Piledriving Occupations
Truck Drivers
Tug Boat Workers
Ironworkers Plumbers & Pipefitters Welders
This determination became effective July 1, 2015, and remains in effect through June 30, 2017. This determination
will be applied to projects with a bid submission deadline on or after July 1, 2015 and to projects previously covered
by the 2013 Alaska employment preference determination. This will afford contractors an opportunity to consider
the impacts of Alaska resident hire in their bids.
The first person on a certified payroll in any classification is called the "first worker" and is not required to be an
Alaskan resident. However, once the contractor adds any more workers in the classification, then all workers in the
classification are counted, and the 90 percent calculation is applied to compute the number of required Alaskans to
be in compliance. To compute the number of Alaskan residents required in a workweek in a particular classification,
multiply the total number of workers in the classification by 90 percent. The result is then rounded down to the
nearest whole number to determine the number of Alaskans that must be employed in that classification.
If a worker works in more than one classification during a week, the classification in which they spent the most time
would be counted for employment preference purposes. If the time is split evenly between two classifications, the
worker is counted in both classifications.
If you have difficulty meeting the 90 percent requirement, an approved waiver must be obtained before a non-Alaska
resident is hired who would put the contractor/subcontractor out of compliance (8 AAC 30.081 (e) (f)). The waiver
process requires proof of an adequate search for qualified Alaskan workers. Qualified Alaska residents identified
through the search must be hired before waivers for non-resident workers may be granted. To apply for a waiver,
contact the nearest Wage and Hour Office for instructions.
Here is an example to apply the 90 percent requirement to four boilermaker workers. Multiply four workers by 90%
and drop the fraction (.90 X 4 = 3.6 - .6 = 3). The remaining number is the number of Alaskan resident boilermakers
required to be in compliance in that particular classification for that week.
The penalties for being out of compliance are serious. AS 36.10.100 (a) states "A contractor who violates a
provision of this chapter shall have deducted from amounts due to the contractor under the contract the prevailing
wages which should have been paid to a displaced resident and these amounts shall be retained by the contracting
agency." If a contractor/subcontractor is found to be out of compliance, penalties accumulate until they come into
compliance.
Contractors are responsible for determining residency status. If you have difficulty determining whether a worker is
an Alaska resident, you should contact the nearest Wage and Hour Office. Contact Wage and Hour in Anchorage at
(907) 269-4900, in Fairbanks at (907) 451-2886, or in Juneau at (907) 465-4842.
