Q 2. Are truck drivers employed by a construction prime contractor to transport materials from the contractor plant or yard to a Davis-Bacon covered project, or from a Davis-Bacon covered project to the contractor's plant or yard covered?

Answer:

Yes. If the contractor/subcontractor's plant or yard is part of the "site of the work", the drivers are covered. If the contractor/subcontractor's plant or yard is not part of the "site of the work", the drivers are generally not covered. The travel time between the plant or yard and the site of work in this instance is never covered. However, if the time spent unloading the material or equipment on the site of work is more than de minimis (20%), then this time is covered.
