| This classification | $70.50 | Power Equipment Operator Group 3 Hydraulic Crane: Hydraulic Crane Operator, 50 Tons Through 89 Tons (Without Luffing or Tower Attachment); Lattice Boom Cranes: Lattice Boom Crane-50 Through 89 Tons (And Less Than 150 Feet Boom); Rubber Tired Scraper: With Tandom Scrapers; Self Loading, Paddle Wheel, Auger Type, Finish and/or 2 or More Units; Loader 60,000 Lbs and Less Than 120,000 Lbs; Bulldozer Over 70,000 Lbs Up to and Including 120,000 Lbs; |
|---|---|---|
| County median | $66.19 | across all classifications in the county |
| County range | $12.65 – $95.49 | lowest to highest total prevailing wage |
| Fringe share | 24% | $16.90 of the $70.50 total |
Of that total, $53.60 is base cash wage and $16.90 is fringe. Fringe may be satisfied with bona fide benefit plan contributions, paid in cash, or a mix — but it is owed either way, and it is owed at straight time on overtime hours.
$70.50 per hour total — $53.60 base rate plus $16.90 in fringe benefits — under the federal determination covering heavy construction in Clatsop County, Oregon, dated Monday, May 18, 2026.
No. It applies to heavy construction under federal funding. The same county carries different rates for Building, Residential, Highway and Heavy work, and a state or city determination may apply instead of or alongside the federal one. Match all three — classification, construction type and funding source — before using a rate.
Yes. $70.50 is the base rate of $53.60 plus $16.90 of fringe. The fringe can be paid into bona fide benefit plans, paid as cash wages, or split between the two.
It is taken from the federal wage determination published on the official government source, linked above. WageFinder re-reads those sources weekly and does not alter the rates. For compliance, the government determination is the authoritative document.
