CORRECTED NOTICE OF AMENDMENT

 

TO:  All Concerned Persons

 

            1.  On October 29, 2009, the Department of Labor and Industry (department) published MAR Notice No. 24-17-238 regarding the public hearing on the amendment of the above-stated rule at page 1840 of the 2009 Montana Administrative Register, Issue No. 20.  On February 11, 2010, the department published the notice of amendment of the above-stated rule at page 399 of the 2010 Montana Administrative Register, Issue No. 3.

 

            2.  ARM 24.17.127 incorporates by reference various prevailing wage rate publications that are published by the department.  On March 24, 2010, the department became aware that there was a data entry error made as part of the recalculation of the wage and fringe benefit rates for the occupational classification of Ironworker-Structural Steel and Rebar Placer in District 8.  That data entry error caused the rates to erroneously be changed from the proposed rates.  The correct rate for the occupation of Ironworker-Structural Steel and Rebar Placer in District 8 is the wage rate of $24.75, and the fringe benefit rate of $13.80, which are the rates as originally proposed.  The rates printed in "The State of Montana Prevailing Wage Rates – Building Construction Services" publication have been corrected.

 

            3.  None of the text of ARM 24.17.127, as amended effective February 12, 2010, has changed as a result of this corrected notice of amendment.

 

            4.  The replacement pages for this corrected notice were submitted to the Secretary of State on March 31, 2010.
