Davis-Bacon and Related Acts Regulations

On August 10, 2023, I posted a very large (812 pages) final Davis-Bacon Act regulations.  The Department of Labor (DOL) posted it in draft format to their site on 8/8/23.  You saw the draft format.  When DOL does that, usually they publish it in the Federal Register the same day.  I searched the Federal Register back a few days and could not find it.  I posted the draft version in case I missed something.

Why the DOL pulls this nonsense, I don't know.  Tonight, the Federal Register notes that it will be published on 8/23/2023.  If it is published on that date, the 60-day effective date goes into effect.
