The full text of clauses of the Act is attached hereto as Exhibit A. Addendum No. 2017-1." l I! '"' ' I"\ ' - '"'' "'!"' _,.. \ ,L U :;. .... r1.Lc J ..; 3. Section 14.05 is added: "14.05 WAGE DETERMINATIONS. Wage Determination 2005-2521, Revision 17, dated 07/08/2015 and Wage Determination 2015-5303, Revision 1, dated 02/18/2016 are attached hereto as Exhibit B. Addendum No. 2017-1. These are the Wage Detenninations that have been incorporated into the United States Marshal's Service IGA with the County. Operator agrees to compensate its employees in accordance with the Wage Dete1minations, or any future addendum or revision thereto by the Department of Labor. Upon receipt of a new Wage Detennination, it shall be Operator's duty and responsibility to comply with the requirements of 48 CFR 52.222-43 or other provisions of law or the IGA in notifying the USMS of any increase or decrease to wages or fringe benefits created by a new Wage Determination, the change in the USMS rate requested, and other information required by regulation or the IGA.

Operator acknowledges that the County is acting as a conduit of the Fund from the USMS to the Operator, and that neither the payment of the Fund to the County, nor distribution of the Fund under this Agreement to the Operator, is an admission by the County that either it or the Kinney County Public Facility Corporation has, or has ever had, any liability or responsibility for the matters giving rise to the payment of the Fund by the USMS.

['" 1 '. c � -: l_ LJ ,; ,.) r ,.�� .; ..J Lt• J Exhibit A Addendum No. 2017-1 SERVICE CONTRACT ACT OF 1965, AS AMENDED (a) Defini�ions. 'Act,' as used in this clause, means the Service Contract Act of 1965, as amended (41 U.S.C. 351, et seq.) 'Contractor,' as used in this clause or in any subcontract, shall be de�mied to refer to the subcontractor, except in the term 'Government Prime Contractor.' 'Service employee,' as used in this clause, means any person engaged in the performance of this contract other than any person employed in a bona fide executive, administrative, or professional capacity, as these terms are defined in Part 541 of Title 29, Code of Federal Regulations, as revised. It includes all such persons regardless of any contractual relationship that may be alleged to exist between a Contractor or subcontractor and such persons� (b) Applicability. This contract is subject to the following provisions and to all other . applicable provisions of the Act and regulations of the. Secretary of Labor (29 CPR Part 4). This clau·se does not apply to contracts or subcontracts administratively exempted by the Secretary of Labor or exempted by 41 U.S.C. 356, as interpreted in Subpart C of 29 CFRPart 4; (c) Compensation. (1) Each service employee employed in the performance of this contract by the. Contractor or any subcontractor shall be paid not less than the minimum monetary wages and shall be furnished fringe benefits in accordance with the wages and fringe benefits determined by the Secretary of Labor, or authorized representative, as ·specified in any wage determination attached to this contract. (2)(i) If a wage determination is attached to _this contract, the Contractor shall classify any class of service employee which is not listed therein and which is to be ·employed under the contract (i.e., the work to be performed is not performed by any classification listed in the wage determination) so as to provide a reasonable relationship (i.e., appropriate level of skill comparison) between such unlisted classifications and the classifications listed in the wage determination. Such conformed class of employees shall be paid the monetary wages and furnished the fringe benefits as are determined pursuant to the procedures in this paragraph (c). (ii) This conforming procedure shall be initiated by · the Contractor prior to the perfonnance of contract work by the unlisted class of employee. The Contractor shall submit Standard Form (SF) 1444, Request for Authorization of Additional Classification and Rate, to the Contracting Officer no later than 30 days after the unlisted class of employee performs any contract work. The Contracting Officer shall review the proposed classification and rate and promptly submit the completed SF 1444 (which must include information regarding the agreement or disagreement of the employees' authorized representatives or the employees themselves together with the agency recommendation), 5 and all pertinent information to the Wage and Hour Division, Employment Standards Administration, U.S. Depaitment of Labor. The Wage and Hour Division will approve, modify, or disapprove the action or render a final determination in the event of disagreement within 30 days of receipt or will notify the Contracting Office within 30 days of receipt that additional time is necessary. (iii) The final determi_nation of the conformance action by the Wage and Hour Division shall be transmitted to· the Contracting Officer who shall promptly notify the Contractor of the action taken. Each affected employee shall be furnished by the Contractor with a written copy of such determination or it shall be posted- as a part of the · wage · · determination. (iv)(A) The process of establishing wage and fringe benefit rates that bear a reasonable relationship to those listed in a wage determination cannot be reduced to any single formula. The approach used may vary from wage determination to wage determination depending on the circumstances. Standard wage and salary administration practices which rank various job classifications by pay grade pursuant to point schemes or other job factors may, for example, be relied upon. Guidance may also be obtained from the way different jobs are rated under Federal pay systems (Federal Wage Board Pay System and the General Schedule) or from other wage determinations issued in the same locality. Basic to the establishment of any conformable wage rate(s) is the concept that a pay relationship should be maintained between job classifications based oli the skill required and the duties perf01med. (B) In the case of a contract modification, an exercise of an option, or extension of an existing contract, or in any other case where a Contractor succeeds a contract under which the classification in question was previously conformed pursuant to paragraph (c) of this clause, a new conformed wage rate and fringe benefits may be assigned to the conformed classification by indexing (i.e., adjusting) the previous conformed rate and fringe benefits by an amount equal to the average (mean) percentage increase ( or decrease, where appropriate) between the wages and fringe benefits specified for all clas�ifications to be . used on the contract which are listed in the current wage dete1mination, and those specified · for the corresponding classifications in the previously applicable wage determination. Where conforming actions are accomplished in accordance with this paragraph prior to the performance of contract work by the unlisted class of employees, the Contractor shall advise the Contracting Officer of the action taken but the other procedures in subdivision (c)(2)(ii) of this clause need not be followed. (C) No employee engaged in performing work on this contract shall in any event be paid less than the currently applicable minimum wage specified under section 6(a)(l) of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended. (v) The wage rate and fringe benefits finally determined under this subparagraph (c)(2) of this clause shall be paid to all employees performing in the classification from the first day on which contract work is performed by them in the classification. Failure to pay the unlisted employees the compensation agreed upon by the interested pmties and/or finally determined by the Wage and Hour Division retroactive to the date such class of employees commenced contract work shall be a violation of the Act and this contract. (vi) Upon discovery of failure to comply with subparagraph (c)(2) of this clause, the Wage and Hour Division shall make a final determination of conformed classification, wage rate, and/or fringe benefits which shall be retroactive to the date such class or 6 classes of employees commenced contract work. (3) Adjustment of Compensation. If the term of this contract is more than 1 year, the minimum monetary wages and fringe benefits required to be paid or furnished thereunder to service employees under _this contract shall be subject to adjustment after l year and not less often than once every 2-years, under wage determination issued by the Wage and Hour Division. (d) Obligation to Furnish Fringe Benefits. The Contractor or subcontractor may discharge the obligation to furnish fringe benefits specified in the attachment or determined under subparagraph {c)(2) of this clause by furnishing equivalent combinations of bona fide :fringe.benefits, or by making equivalent or differential cash payments, only in accordance with Subpart D of 29 CER Part 4. (e) Minimum Wage. In the absence of a minimum wage attachment for this contract, neither the Contractor nor any subcontraGtor under this contract shall pay any person performing work under this contract (regardless of whether the person is a service employee)_ less than the minimum wage specified by section 6(a)(l) of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938. Nothing in this clause shall relieve the Contractor or any subcontractor of any other obligation under law or contract for payment of a higher wage to any employee. (f) Successor Contracts. If this contract succeeds a contract subject to the Act under which substantially the same services were furnished in the same locality and service employees were paid wages and fringe benefits provided for in a collective bargaining agreement, in the absence of the minimum wage attachment for this contract setting forth such collectively bargained wage rates and fringe benefits, neither the Contractor nor any subcontractor under this contract shall pay any service employee performing any of tl�e contract work (regardless of whether or not such employee was employed under the predecessor contract), less than the wages and fringe benefits provided for in such collective bargaining agreement, to which such employee would have been entitled if employed under the predecessor contract, including accrued wages and fringe benefits and any prospective increases in wages· and :fringe benefits provided for under such agreement. No Contractor or subcontractor under this contract may be relieved of the foregoing obligation unless the limitations of 29 CFR 4.lb(b} apply or unless the Secretary of Labor or the Secretary's authorized representative finds, after a hearing as provided in 29 CFR 4.10 that the wages and/or fringe benefits provided for in such agreement are substantially at variance with those which prevail for services of a character similar in the locality, or determines, as provided in 29 CFR 4.11, that the collective bargaining agreement applicable to service employees employed under the predecessor contract was ncit entered into as a result_ of arm's length negotiations. Where it is found in accordance with the review procedures provided in 29 CFR 4.10 and/or 4.11 and Parts 6 and 8 that some or all of the wages and/or fringe benefits contained in a predecessor Contractor's collective bargaining agreement are substantially at variance with those which prevail for services of a character similar in the locality, and/or that the collective bargaining agreement applicable to service employees employeµ. under the predecessor contract was not entered into as a result of arm's length negotiations, the Depa1tment will issue a new or revised wage determination setting forth the applicable wage rates and fringe benefits: Such determinations shall be made pmi of the contract or subcontract, in accordance with the decision of the Administrator, the Administrative 7 \•,·1 r, ' ,- n, rr _, .. ", � 'u� U 1;. 0 �;,ut �.1::; i Law Judge, or the Board of Service Contract Appeals, ;iS the case may be, irrespective of whether such issuance occurs prior to or after the award ofa contract or subcontract (53 Comp. Gen. 401 (1973)). In the case ofa wage determination issued solely as a result of a finding of substantial variance, such determination shall be effective as of the date of the final administrative decision. (g) Notification to Employees. The Contractor and any subcontractor under this contract shall notify each service employee commencing work on this ·contract of the minimum monetary wage and any fringe benefits required to be paid pursuant to this contract, or shall post the wage determination attached to this contract. The poster provided by the Depmtment of Labor (Publication WH 1313) shall be posted in a prominent and accessible place at the worksite.

(A contractor may substitute for any of the named holidays· another day off with pay in accordance with a plan communicated to the employees involved.) (See 29 CFR 4174) THE OCCUPATIONSWHICH HAVE NUMBERED FOOTNOTES IN PARENTHESES RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING: 1) COMPUTER EMPLOYEES: Under the SCA at section 8(b), this wage determhiation does not apply to any employee who individually qualifies as a bo·na fide executive, administrative, or professional employee as defined in 29 C.F.R. Part 541. Because most Computer System Analysts and Computer Programmers who are compensated at a i-ate not less than $27.63 (or on a salary or fee basis at a rate not less than $455 per week) an hour would likely qualify as exempt computer professionals, (29 C.F.R. 541.400) wage rates may not be listed on this wage determination for all occupations within those job families. In addition, because this wage determination may not list a wage rate for some or all occupations within those job families if the survey data indicates that the prevailing wage rate for the occupation equals or exceeds $27.63 per hour conformances may be necessary for certain nonexempt employees. For example, if an individual employee is nonexempt but nevertheless performs duties within the scope of one of the Computer Systems Analyst or Computer Programmer occupations for which this wage determination does not specify an SCA wage rate, then the wage rate for that employee must be conformed in accordance with the conformance procedures described in the conformance note included on this wage determination. Additionally, because job titles vary widely and change quickly in the computer industry, job titles are not determinative of the application of the computer professional exemption. Therefore, �he exell)ption applies only to computer employees who s·atisfy the compensation requirements and whose primary duty consists of: (1) The application of systems an_alysis techniques and procedures, including consulting with users, to determine hardware, software or system functional specifications; (2) The de?ign, development, documentation, analysis, creation, testing or modification of computer systems or programs, including prototypes, based on and related to user or_system design specifications; {3) The design, document_ation, testing, creation or modification of computer programs related to machine operating systems; or (4) A combination of the aforementioned duties, the performance of which requires the same level of skills (29 C.F.R. 541.400). 2) AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS AND WEATHER OBSERVERS - NIGHT PAY &SUNDAY PAY: If you work at night as part of a regular tour of duty, you will earn a night differential.and receive an additional 10% of basic pay for any hours worked between 6pm and 6am. If you are a full-time employed (40 hours a week) and Sunday is part of your regularly scheduled workweek, you are paid at your rate of basic pay plus a Sunday premium of 25% of your basic rate for each hour of Sunday work which is not overtime {i.e., occasional work on Sunday outside the normal tour of duty is considered overtime work).

I.. -....,.1 HAZARDOUS PAY DIFFERENTIAL: An 8 percent differential is applicable to employees employed in a position that represents a high degree of hazard when working with or in close proximity to ordinance, explosives, and.incendiary materials. This includes work such as screening, blending, dying, mixing, and pressing of sensitive ordnance, explosives, and pyrotechnic compositions such as lead azide, black powder and photoflash p_owder. All dry-house activities involving propellants or explosives. Demilitarization, modification, renovation, demolition, and maintenance.operations on sensitive ordnance, explosives and incendiary materials. All operations involving regrading and cleaning of artillery ranges. A 4 percent differential is applicable to employees employed in a position that represents a low degree of hazard when working with, or in close proximity to ordnance, (or employees possibly adjacent to) explosives and incendiary materials which involves potential injury such as laceration of hands, face, or arms of the employee engaged_ in the operation, irritation of the skin, minor burns and the like; minimal damage to immediate or adjacent work area or equipment being used; All operations involving, unloading, storage, and hauling of ordnance, explosive, and incendiary ordnance material other than small arms ammunition. These differentials are only applicableto work that has been specifically designated by the agency for ordnance, explosives, and incendiary material differential pay. ** UNIFORM ALLOWANCE** If employees are requir_ed to wear uniforms in the performance of this contract (either by the terms of the Government contract, by the employer, by the state or local law, etc.), the cost of furnishing such uniforms and maintaining (by laundering or dry cleaning) such uniforms is an expense that may not be borne by an employee where such cost reduces the hourly rate below that required by the wage determination. The Department of Labor will accept payment in accordance with the following standards as compliance: The contractor or subcontractor is required to furnish all employees with an adequate number of uniforms without cost or to reimburse employees for the actu_al cost of t_he uniforms. In addition, where uniform cleaning and maintenance is made the responsibility of the employee, all contractors and subcontractors subject to this wage determination shall (in the absence of a bona fide collective bargaining agreement providing for a different amount, or the furnishing of contrary affirmative· proof as to the actual cost), reimburse all employees for such cleaning and maintenance at a rate of $3.35 per week (or $.67 cents per day). However, in those instances where the uniforms furnished are made of· "wash and wear" materials, may be routinely washed and dried with other personal garments, and do not require any special treatment such as dry cleaning, daily washing, or commercial laundering in order to meet the cleanliness or appearance standards set by the terms of the Government contract, by the contractor, by law, or by the nature of the work, there is no requirement that employees be reimbursed for uniform maintenance costs. The duties of employees under job titles listed are those described in the "Service Contract Act Directory of Occupations", Fifth Edition, April 2006, unless otherwise indicated. Copies of the Directory are available on the Internet. A links to the Directory may be found on the WHD home page at http:ljwww.dol.gov/esa/whd/ or through the Wage Determinations On-Line (WDOL) Web site at http://wdol.gov/. Attachment 2 VA257-15-R-1576 DoL Wage Determination 2005-2521, Rev. 17 Page 11 of 13 REQUEST FOR AUTHORIZATION OF ADDITIONAL CLASSIFICATION AND WAGE RATE {Standard Form 1444 (SF 1444)} Conformance Process: The contracting officer shall require that any class of service employee which is not listed herein and which is to be employed under the contract (i.e., the work to be performed is not performed by any classification listed in the wage determination), be classified by the contractor so as to provide a reasonable relationship (i.€!., appropriate level of skill comparison) between such unlisted classifications and the classifications listed in the wage determination; Such conformed classes of employees shall be paid the monetary wages and fur11ished the fringe benefits as are determined. Such conforming process shall be initiated .by the contractor prior to the performance of contract work by such unlisted class(es) of employees. The conformed classification, wage rate, and/or fringe benefits shall be retroactive to the commencement date of the contract. {See Section 4.6 (C)(vi)} When multiple wage determinations are included in a contract� a separate SF 1444 should be prepared for each wage determination to which a class(es) is to be conformed. The process for preparing a conformance request is as follows: j 1) When preparing the bid, the contractor identifies the need for a conformed occupation(s) and . computes a proposed rate(s}. 2} After contract award, the contractor prepares a written report listing in order proposed classification title(s), a Federal grade equivalency (FGE) for each proposed classification(s), job description(s), and rationale for proposed wage rate(s), including information regarding the agreement or disagreement of the authorized representative of the employees involved, or where there is no authorized representative, the l;!mployees themselves. This report should be submitted to the contracting officer no later than 30 days after such unlisted class(es} of employees performs any contract work. 3) The contracting officer reviews the proposed action and promptly submits a report of the action, together with the agency's recommendations and pertinent information including the position of the · contractor and the employees, to the Wage and Hour Division, Employment Standards Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, for review. (See section 4.6(b)(2} of Regulations 29 CFR Part 4). 4} Within 30 days of receipt, the Wage and Hour Division approves, modifies, or disapproves the action via transmittal to the agency contracting officer, or notifies the contracting officer that additional time will be required to process the request. 5} The contracting officer transmits the Wage and Hour decision to the contractor. 6) The contractor informs the affected employees. Information required by the Regulations must be submitted on SF 1444 or bond paper. Attachment 2 VA257-15-R-1576 \1�' - ' , uL u DoL WageDetermination 2005-2521, Rev. 17 Page12 of13 When preparing a conformance request, the "Service Contract Act Directory of Occupations" (the Directory) should be used to compare job definitions to insure that duties requested are not performed by a classification already listed in the Wage determination. Remember, it is not the job title, but the required tasks that determine whether a class is included in an established.wage determination. Conformances may not be used to artificially split, combine, or subdivide classifications listed in the_ wage determination.

Because most Computer System Analysts and Computer Programmers who are compensated at a rate not less than $27.63 (or on a salary or fee basis at_a 'rate not less than $455 per week) an hour would likely qualify as exempt computer professionals, (29 C.F.R. 541. 400) wage. rates may not be listed on this wage determination for all .occupations within those job families. In addition, because this wage determination may not list a wage rate for some or all occupations within those job families if the survey data indicates that the prevailing wage rate for the occupation equals or exceeds $27.63 per hour conformances may be necessary for certain nonexempt employees. For example, if an individual employee is.nonexempt but neyertheless performs duties · within the scope of one of the Computer Systems Analyst or Computer Programmer occupations for which this wage determination· does not specify an SCA wage rate, then the wage rate for that employee-must be conformed in accordance with the conformance procedures described in the conformance note included on this wage determination. Additionally, because job titles vary widely and change quickly in the computer industry, job titles are not determinative of the application of the computer professional exemption. Therefore, the exemption applies only to computer employees who satisfy the compensation requirements and whose primary duty c,:msists of: (1) The application of systems analysis techniques and procedures, including consulting with users, to detennine hardware, software or system functional specifications; (2} The design, development, documentation, analysis, creation, testing or modification of computer systems or programs, including protot'ypes, based on and related to user or system design specificati9ns; (3) The design, documentation, testing, creation. or modification of. compute·r programs related to machine operating systems; or· (4) A combination of the aforementioned duties, the performance of which requires the same level of skills. (29 C.F:R. 541.400). 2) AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS AND WEATHER OBSERVERS - NIGHT PAY & SUNDAY PAY: If you _work at night as part of a regular tour of duty, you will earn a night differential and receive an additional 10% of basic pay for any hours worked between.6pm and 6am. If you are a full-time employed (40 hours a week) and Sunday is part of your regularly scheduled workweek, you are paid at your rate of basic pay plus a Sunday premium of 25% of your basic rate for. each hour of Sunday work which is not overtime (i.e. occasional work on Sunday outside the normal tour of duty is considered overtime work). ** HAZARDOUS PAY DIFFERENTIAL ** An 8 percent differential is applicable to employees employed in a position that represents a high degree of hazard when working with or in close proximity to ordnance, explosives, and incendiary materials. This includes work such as screening, blending, dying, mixing, and pressing of.sensitive ordnance, explosives, and pyrotechnic compositions such as lead azide, black powder and photoflash powder. All dry-house activities involving propellants or explosives. Demilitarization, modification, renovation, demolition, and maintenance operations on sensitive ordnance, explosives and incendiary materials. All operations involving re-grading 9/27/2016 Page 9of10 and cleaning of artillery ranges, A 4 percent differential is applicable to �mployees employed.in a position that represents a· low degree of hazard when working with, or in close proximity to ordnance, (or employees possibly adjacent to) explosives and incendiary materials which involves potential injury such as laceration of hands, face, or arms of the employee engaged in the operation, irritation of the skin, minor burns and the like; minimal damage to immediate or adjacent work area or equipment being used. All operations involving,. unloading, storage, and hauling of ordnance, explosive, and incendiary ordnance material other than small arms ammunition. These differentials are only applicable to work that has been specifically designated by the agency f�r ordnance, explosives, and incendiary material differential pay. ** UNIFORM ALLOWANCE **· If employees are required to wear uniforms in the performance of this contract (either by the terms of the Government contract, by the employer, by the state or local law, etc.), the cost of furnishing such uniforms and maintaining (by laundering or dry cleaning) such uniforms is an expense that may not be borne by an employee where such cost reduces the hourly rate below that required by the wage determination. The Department of Labor wili accept payment in accordance with the following standards as compliance: The contractor or subcontractor is required to furnish all employees with an adequate number of uniforms without cost or to reimburse employees for the actual cost of the uniforms. In addition,- where un�form cleaning and maintenance is made the responsibility of the employee,· all contractors and subcontractors subject to this wage determination shall (in the absence of a bona fide collective bargaining agreement providing for a different amount, or the furnishing of contrary affirmative proof a� to the actual cos.t); reimburse all employees for such cleaning and maintenance at a rate of $3.35 per week (or $.67 cents per day).· However, in those instances where the uniforms furnished are made· of "wash and wear" materials, may be routinely washed and dried with other personal garments, and do not require any special treatment such as dry cleaning, daily washing, or commercial laundering in order to meet the cleanliness or appearance standards set by-the terms of the Government contract, by the contractor, by law, .or by the nature of the work, there is no requirement that employees be reimbursed for uniform maintenance costs. ** SERVICE CONTRACT ACT DIRECTORY OF OCCUPATIONS ** The duties of employees under job titles listed are those described in the "Service Contract Act 'Directory of Occupations'i, Fifth Edition (Revision 1), dated September 2015, unless otherwise indicated. **-REQUEST FOR AUTHORIZATION OF ADDITIONAL CLASSIFICATION AND WAGE RATE, Standard Form 1444 (SF-1444) ** Conformance Process: The contracting officer shall require that any class of service employee which is not listed herein and which is to be employed under the contract (i.e., the work to be·performed i's not performed by any classification listed in the wage determination), be classified by the contractor so as to provide a reasonable relationship (i.e., appropriate level of skill comparison) between such unlisted classifications and the classifications listed in the wage determination (See 29 CFR 4.6(b)(2) (i)). Such conforming procedures shall be initiated by the contractor prior to the performance of contract work by such unlisted class(es) of employees (See 29 CFR 4.6(b) (2) (ii)). The Wage and Hour Division shall make a final determination of conformed classification, wage rate, and/or fringe benefits which shall be paid to all employees performing in the classification from the first day of work on which contract work is performed by them in the classification. Failure to pay such unlisted employees the compensation agreed upon by the interested parties and/or fully determined by the Wage and Hour Division retroactive to the 9/27/2016 Page 10 of 10 date such class of employees commenced contrac.t work shall be a violation of the Act and this contract. (See 29 CFR 4. 6(b)(2) (v)) . When multiple wage determinations are included in a contract, · a separate SF-1444 should be prepared for each wage determination to which a class(es) is to be conformed. The process for preparing a conformance request is as follows: 1) When preparing the bid, the contractor identifies the need for a conformed occupation(s) and computes a proposed rate(s) . . 2) After contract award, the contractor prepares a written report listing in order the proposed classification title(s), a Federal grade equivalency (FGE) for each proposed classification(s), job description(s), and rationale for proposed wage rate(s), including information regarding the agreement or disagreement of the authorized representative of the employees involved, or where there is no authorized representative, the employees themselves·. This report should be submitted to the contracting officer no later than 30 days after such unlisted class(es) of employees performs any contract work. 3) The contracting officer reviews the proposed action and promptly submits a report of the action, together with the agency's recommendations and pertinent information i_ncluding the position of the contractor and the employees, to the U.S. Department of Labor, Wage and Hour Division, for review (See 29 CFR 4.G(b)(2)(ii)). 4) Within 30 days of receipt, the Wage· and Hour Division approves, modifies, or disapproves the action via transmittal to the agency contracting officer, or notifies the contracting officer that additional time will be required to process the request. 5) The contracting officer transmits the Wage and Hour Division's decision to the contractor. 6) Each affected employee shall be furnished by the contractor with a written copy of such determination or it shall be posted as a part of the wage determination (See 29 CFR 4 . 6 (b)(2) (iii)). Information required by the Regulations must be submitted on SF-1444 or bond paper. Wheri preparing a conformance request, ·the "Service Contract Act Directory of Occupations" should be used to compare job definitions to ensure that duties requested are not performed by a classification already listed in the wage determination. Remember, it is not the job title, but t�e required tasks that determine whether a class is included in. an established wage determination. Conformances may not be used to artificially split, combine, or subdivide classifications listed in the wage determination (See 29 CFR 4.152(c)(1)). http://www.wdol.gov/w40:Vffll�/syVf5-5J-9¥x:t?v=1 J luL V • y- li"L w'l .) � 9/27/2016
