March 20, 1998, applicable to workers

these findings, the Department is

amending the certification to include

leased workers from Express Temporary

Services, Colorado Springs, Colorado

producing optical disk drives at the

subject firms’ production facility.

The intent of the Department’s

certification is to include all workers at

Most Manufacturing, Incorporated

adversely affected by imports.

TA–W–34,247 is hereby issued as

follows:

All workers of Most Manufacturing,

Incorporated, Colorado Springs, Colorado,

engaged in employment related to the

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

fringe benefits which are determined to

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,

enacted containing provisions for the

payment of wages determined to be

prevailing by the Secretary of Labor in

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

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

and fringe benefits, notice of which is

published herein, and which are
