NSPS Executive Director Curt Sumner, PLS, has been invited
to testify before the Committee on Education and the Workforce, Subcommittee on
Workforce Protections, at a hearing entitled, “Promoting the Accuracy and
Accountability of the Bacon-Davis Act,” to be held at 10:00 AM EST on Tuesday,
June 18, 2013. Sumner will discuss
NSPS concerns with the Department of Labor’s recent ruling that expanded the
Davis Bacon Act, and its prevailing wage requirements, to certain services by
members of survey crews on federally financed construction projects. Meanwhile, support for the NSPS
position is growing. More than 10
taxpayer and pro-business organizations have joined together in a letter to the
Secretary of Labor opposing the Davis-Bacon expansion affecting surveying
contracts.
