Excludes certain public works contracts related to Hurricane Sandy recovery from prevailing wage requirements.
This bill exempts public contracts for rebuilding or recovery work related to Hurricane Sandy from New Jersey's prevailing wage requirements. It specifically applies to contracts for public work addressing damage from Hurricane Sandy or the 2012 State of Emergency (Executive Order No. 104), but only if the exemption does not jeopardize federal funding for recovery efforts. If federal funding could be lost, the prevailing wage rules remain in effect. The change aims to streamline recovery projects while ensuring compliance with federal grant conditions.
