Union Rate Identifiers A four letter classification abbreviation identifier enclosedin dotted lines beginning with characters other than ""SU"" or""UAVG"" denotes that the union classification and rate were prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example: PLUMe198-065 07/01/2014. PLUM is an abbreviation identifier ofthe union which prevailed in the survey for thisclassification, which in this example would be Plumbers. 6198indicates the local union number or district council number where applicable, i.e. , Plumbers Local 0198.

Survey Rate Identifiers DocuSign Envelope ID: 8F4FF6DB-DFA04CED-B3F4-C2B00EAC2A74 Classifications listed under the "''SU"" identifier indicate that no one rate prevailed for this classification in the survey andthe published rate is derived by computing a weighted averagerate based on all the rates reported in the survey for thatclassification. As this weighted average rate includes all rates reported in the survey, it may- include both union andnon-union rates. Example: suLA2e12-o07 5/13/2014. SU indicatesthe rates are survey rates based on a weighted averagecalculation of rates and are not majority rates. LA indicatesthe State of Louisiana. 2012 is the year of survey on which these classifications and rates are based. The next number, 067in the example, is an internal number used in producing thewage determination. 5/13/2014 indicates the survey completiondate for the classifications and rates under that identifier. Survey wage rates are not updated and remain in effect until anew survey is conducted. Union Average Rate Identifiers Classification(s) listed under the UAVG identifier indicatethat no single majority rate prevailed for thoseclassifications; however, lee% of the data reported for theclassifications was union data. EXAMPLE : UAVG-0H-001008/29/2014. UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted unionaverage rate. 0H indicates the state. The next number, 0010 inthe example, is an internal number used in producing the wagedetermination. 68/29/2014 indicates the survey completion datefor the classifications and rates under that identifier. A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in lanuary ofeach year, to reflect a weighted average of the currentnegotiated/CBA rate of the union locals from which the rate isbased .

For such copies, as long as you are an authorized user of the DocuSign system you will have the ability to download and print any documents we send to you through your DocuSign user account for a limited period of time (usually 30 days) after such documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to send you paper copies of any such documents from our office to you, you will be charged a $0.00 per-page fee.
