Administration and enforceaent of the Davis-Bacon Act minimum wage provision6 were investigated at a building conversion project at the Naval Communications Station, Stockton, California, located in the Department of Labor's Region TX. Findings/Conclusions: The Resident-Officer-In-Charge of Construction (BOICC) had charge of the contract for conversion of a warehouse to a commissary. Deficiencies in labor standards were found in the areas of certified payroll compliance checks, apprentice certifications, lack of employee interviews, and training of contract personnel. The certified payrolls were not submitted in a timely fashion, and there were several underpayments. Some employees received unusual payroll deductions; others were isclassified and underpaid. Neither the construction representative nor the procurement clerk of the ROICC had received adequate training. Recommendations: Because of the many violations found and the responsibility of the Western Division for labor utandards enforcement, the matter was referred for appropriate investigation of violations and for action on enforcement responsibilities.
