                CHAPTER 1--FEDERAL ACQUISITION REGULATION
 
PART 22_APPLICATION OF LABOR LAWS TO GOVERNMENT ACQUISITIONS--Table of Contents
 
    Subpart 22.4_Labor Standards for Contracts Involving Construction
 
Sec.  22.404-9  Award of contract without required wage determination.

    (a) If a contract is awarded without the required wage determination 
(i.e., incorporating no determination, containing a clearly inapplicable 
general wage determination, or containing a project determination which 
is inapplicable because of an inaccurate description of the project or 
its location), the contracting officer shall initiate action to 
incorporate the required determination in the contract immediately upon 
discovery of the error. If a required wage determination (valid 
determination in effect on the date of award) is not available, the 
contracting officer shall expeditiously request a wage determination 
from the Department of Labor, including a statement explaining the 
circumstances and giving the date of the contract award.
    (b) The contracting officer shall--
    (1) Modify the contract to incorporate the required wage 
determination (retroactive to the date of award), and equitably adjust 
the contract price if appropriate; or
    (2) Terminate the contract.
