DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment Standards Administration

Wage and Hour Division; Minimum

Wages for Federal and Federally

Assisted Construction; General Wage

Determination Decisions

General wage determination decisions

of the Secretary of Labor are issued in

accordance with applicable law and are

based on the information obtained by

the Department of Labor from its study

of local wage conditions and data made

available from other sources. They

specify the basic hourly wage rates and

fringe benefits which are determined to

be prevailing for the described classes of

laborers and mechanics employed on

construction projects of a similar

character and in the localities specified

therein.

The determinations in these decisions

of prevailing rates and fringe benefits

have been made in accordance with 29

CFR Part 1, by authority of the Secretary

of Labor pursuant to the provisions of

the Davis-Bacon Act of March 3, 1931,

as amended (46 Stat. 1494, as amended,

40 U.S.C. 276a) and of other Federal

statutes referred to in 29 CFR Part 1,

Appendix, as well as such additional

statutes as may from time to time be

enacted containing provisions for the

payment of wages determined to be

prevailing by the Secretary of Labor in

accordance with the Davis-Bacon Act.

The prevailing rates and fringe benefits

determined in these decisions shall, in

accordance with the provisions of the

foregoing statutes, constitute the

minimum wages payable on Federal and

federally assisted construction projects

to laborers and mechanics of the

specified classes engaged on contract

work of the character and in the

localities described therein.

Good cause is hereby found for not

utilizing notice and public comment

procedure thereon prior to the issuance

of these determinations as prescribed in

5 U.S.C. 553 and not providing for delay

in the effective date as prescribed in that

section, because the necessity to issue

current construction industry wage

determinations frequently and in large

volume causes procedures to be

impractical and contrary to the public

interest.

General wage determination

decisions, and modifications and

supersedes decisions thereto, contain no

expiration dates and are effective from

their date of notice in the Federal

Register, or on the date written notice

is received by the agency, whichever is

earlier. These decisions are to be used

in accordance with the provisions of 29

CFR Parts 1 and 5. Accordingly, the

applicable decision, together with any

modifications issued, must be made a

part of every contract for performance of

the described work within the

geographic area indicated as required by

an applicable Federal prevailing wage

law and 29 CFR Part 5. The wage rates

and fringe benefits, notice of which is

published herein, and which are

contained in the Government Printing

Office (GPO) document entitled

‘‘General Wage Determinations Issued

Under The Davis-Bacon And Related

Acts,’’ shall be the minimum paid by

contractors and subcontractors to

laborers and mechanics.

Any person, organization, or

governmental agency having an interest

in the rates determined as prevailing is

encouraged to submit wage rate and

fringe benefit information for

consideration by the Department.

Further information and selfexplanatory forms for the purpose of

submitting this data may be obtained by

writing to the U.S. Department of Labor,

Employment Standards Administration,

Wage and Hour Division, Division of

Wage Determination, 200 Constitution

Avenue, N.W., Room S–3014,

LEGAL SERVICES CORPORATION

Accounting Guide for LSC Recipients

AGENCY: Legal Services Corporation.

ACTION: Proposed guidelines.

SUMMARY: The Legal Services

Corporation (LSC or Corporation)

hereby publishes for comment by

interested parties a proposed

Accounting Guide for LSC Recipients

(Guide), which would replace the

accounting portions of the 1981 and

1986 editions of LSC Audit and

Accounting Guide for Recipients and

Auditors (Audit and Accounting Guide).

The Audit Guide for LSC Recipients and

Auditors, issued in 1995 and revised by

the LSC Office of Inspector General in

1996, replaced the audit portions of

both editions of the Audit and

Accounting Guide. Thus, when this

Guide is published in final, all previous

editions of the Audit and Accounting

Guide will become obsolete.

DATES: Comments must be received on

or before May 12, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Copies of the Guide may be

downloaded from LSC Homepage or

HANDSNET, or requested via E-mail at

ACCTGUID@SMTP.LSC.GOV or by

voice mail at 202–336–8846 or by fax at

202–336–8854. Comments may be

submitted in writing to the above E-mail

address or to the Office of Program

Operations, Legal Services Corporation,

750 1st Street, NE., Washington, DC

20002–4250, Attention: LSC Accounting

Guide.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Charles Crittenden, Program Analyst,

Office of Program Operations. (202)

336–8800.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In

addition to assisting recipients and their

auditors in understanding the

accounting and reporting requirements

for contracts and grants entered into

with the LSC, the Guide revises and

updates LSC accounting and financial

reporting requirements and guidelines

based on recently promulgated

Generally Accepted Accounting

Principles (GAAP) that apply to not-forprofit organizations. Using these new

standards, the proposed Guide describes

the accounting policies, guidelines,

records, and internal control procedures

that LSC considers adequate to provide

proper accounting, financial reporting,

and management of LSC funds.

Additionally, the Guide provides in

individual appendices: (1) illustrative

financial statement formats acceptable

to LSC; (2) descriptions of

recommended accounting records; (3) a

sample chart of accounts; (4) accounting

policies and procedures for property; (5)

accounting for client trust funds; (6)

other regulatory requirements for notfor-profit organizations; (7) checklist of

accounting and internal control

procedures; (8) LSC regulations setting

accounting policies; (9) listing of GAAP

for not-for-profit organizations; and (10)

a glossary of terms and definitions.

The proposed guidelines are intended

to reflect GAAP methods that will result

in the most meaningful financial

information for LSC, and for most

readers of an LSC recipient’s financial

statements. The Corporation has

established a 30-day comment period

from the date of this notice, during

which LSC invites general comments on

the Guide and specific comments on the

following issues:
