Episode 121 - John Palatiello and Proposed Davis-Bacon Act Changes

GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS ALERT! The Department of Labor has issued proposed rule changes that will include surveying under the Davis-Bacon Act, so we asked John Palatiello, NSPS Legislative Consultant, back on the podcast to discuss the issue. He shared the history of the Davis-Bacon Act and why including surveying under rules typically established for labor is a negative for the profession. John talks about how NSPS, our state affiliates, and our membership can help oppose these proposed changes so our profession will not be subject to these proposed rules.
