SUBJECT: Minimum Rate of Pay Request – Routine Street Sweeping- Commercial and Residential
This is in response to your email dated January 9, 2023, requesting a minimum rate of pay determination for routine street sweeping for residential and commercial streets, for a period of 5 years, in Los Angeles and Sacramento County. You stated that the project located in Los Angeles County has a bid advertisement date of, December 28, 2022, and the Project Located in Sacramento County has a bid advertisement date of January 2, 2023.
The Office of the Director – Research Unit does not issue minimum rate of pay decisions in cases where more than one craft/classification published in the General Determinations can perform a specific type of work on a project where no request for a rate of pay decision has been made prior to or within 20 days of the commencement for bids on a project.
When there are multiple crafts/classifications published in the Director’s General Prevailing Wage Determinations at the time of a call for bids for a project that may perform a specific type of work and a minimum rate of pay decision was not requested or issued in accordance with the deadlines prescribed in Labor Code Section 1773.4, they may not be altered by a minimum rate of pay decision (Sheet Metal Workers International Association, Local Union 104, v. John M.. Rea (2007), 153 Cal.App.4th 1071, 63 Cal Rptr.3d 672). As a result any information provided will be given in a strictly advisory role.
For work involving street sweeping using a street sweeper on public works projects in Los Angeles County the scope of work for Teamster: Group 2 and Operating Engineer: Group 4 may contain similar types of work.
For work involving street sweeping using a street sweeper on public works projects in Sacramento County the scope of work for Teamster: Group 3 and Operating Engineer: Group 8 may contain similar types of work.
Please see the following link to the Director’s coverage determination - Public Works Case No. 2020-005 Street Sweeping Maintenance Services - City of Elk Grove.
The information in this letter is advisory and is based only on the information provided in your letter. This letter should not be construed as a coverage determination. Public works coverage determinations are made by the Director of Industrial Relations on a case-by-case basis after analysis of the specific facts involved on the project, if you would like to pursue a formal coverage determination, please provide copies of all relevant documents such as construction contracts, plans and specifications to the following address:
