What is the minimum amount of gallons at which you need to pay the prevailing wage on state jobs?

150 gallons
230 gallons
500 gallons
1,000 gallons

The correct answer is: 230 gallons

The requirement to pay prevailing wages on state jobs is tied to the volume of certain types of contracts or projects. In this case, the minimum threshold for requiring payment of prevailing wages is established at 230 gallons. This means that projects involving the sale or use of products in excess of this volume must adhere to prevailing wage laws, ensuring that workers receive fair compensation according to state regulations. Other volumes mentioned do not trigger this requirement; thus, they do not align with the legal standards set forth for prevailing wage laws in state work. Understanding these thresholds is crucial for compliance in plumbing and construction work, helping to ensure that both the contractor and employees follow the necessary regulations.
