Adjustment of Fees Paid by Public Agency
(1)
Within 30 days of the final progress payment to the contractor by the public agency after completion of the contract, the public agency must determine the final contract price. The public agency must consider all change orders or other adjustments to the contract price in making the determination.(2)
The public agency must calculate the fee in accordance with OAR 839-025-0200 (Fees to Be Paid by Public Agency)(2) and must credit the amount paid pursuant to 839-025-0200 (Fees to Be Paid by Public Agency)(3). The difference, if any, must be determined as follows:(a)
In the case of a reduction of more than $100 in the amount of the fee, the public agency may submit a request to the bureau for a refund of the difference and the bureau will pay a refund to the public agency;(b)
In the case of an increase of more than $100 in the amount of the fee, the public agency must pay the difference to the bureau.(3)
Requests for refunds and additional payments must be submitted with sufficient documentation to show how the amount to be refunded or to be paid was calculated. All such requests or payments must be made to the Prevailing Wage Rate Unit within 30 days after the date the final progress payment was made to the contractor by the public agency after completion of the contract.(4)
In order to assist public agencies in the proper calculation of the fee, the bureau has prepared a form for this purpose. The form, WH-40, is available, on request, from the Prevailing Wage Rate Unit.
