    (a) The procedural rules in this part apply under the Davis-Bacon 
Act (946 Stat. 1494, as amended; 40 U.S.C. 276a--276a-7) and other 
statutes listed in appendix A to this part which provide for the payment 
of minimum wages, including fringe benefits, to laborers and mechanics 
engaged in construction activity under contracts entered into or 
financed by or with the assistance of agencies of the United States or 
the District of Columbia, based on determinations by the Secretary of 
Labor of the wage rates and fringe benefits prevailing for the 
corresponding classes of laborers and mechanics employed on projects 
similar to the contract work in the local areas where such work is to be 
performed. Functions of the Secretary of Labor under these statutes and 
under Reorganization Plan No. 14 of 1950 (64 Stat. 1267, 5 U.S.C. 
appendix), except those assigned to the Administrative Review Board (see 
29 CFR part 7), have been delegated to the Deputy Under Secretary of 
Labor for Employment Standards who in turn has delegated the functions 
to the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division, and authorized 
representatives.
    (b) The regulations in this part set forth the procedures for making 
and applying such determinations of prevailing wage rates and fringe 
benefits pursuant to the Davis-Bacon Act, each of the other statutes 
listed in appendix A, and any other Federal statute providing for 
determinations of such

wages by the Secretary of Labor in accordance with the provisions of the 
Davis-Bacon Act.
    (c) Procedures set forth in this part are applicable, unless 
otherwise indicated, both to general wage determinations for contracts 
in specified localities, and to project wage determinations for use on 
contract work to be performed on a specific project.
