The Los Angeles district of The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is requesting comments from the construction industry on the potential use of a project labor agreement (PLA) on the asphalt and concrete pavement repairs and new improvements primarily at Edwards Air Force Base in Kern County, Calif. In addition to the construction scheduled for Edwards Air Force Base, the Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract would also include civil work project sites and other Corps of Engineers’ customers within California, Arizona, Nevada, Utah and New Mexico. More information on the survey is available here. Responses should be submitted to Lucia Carvajal, [email protected], by Feb. 24. ABC National has taken the opportunity to respond to all PLA surveys as they are issued and encourages its members to do the same. For assistance with responding to the survey, contact ABC’s Director of Federal Procurement and Labor Affairs Ben Brubeck, [email protected].
