    Subpart C_Application of the McNamara-O'Hara Service Contract Act
 
Sec. 4.144  Contract modifications affecting amount.

    Where a contract which was originally issued in an amount not in 
excess of $2,500 is later modified so that its amount may exceed that 
figure, all the provisions of section 2(a) of the Act, and the 
regulations thereunder are applicable from the date of modification to 
the date of contract completion. In the event of such modification, the 
contracting officer will immediately request a wage determination from 
the Department of Labor and insert the required contract clauses and any 
wage determination issued into the contract. In the event that a 
contract for services subject to the Act in excess of $2,500 is modified 
so that it cannot exceed $2,500, compliance with the provisions of 
section 2(a) of the Act and the contract clauses required thereunder 
ceases to be an obligation of the contractor when such modification 
becomes effective.
