Contracts and grants that include contact tracing or other pandemic response activities as part of the scope of work and that are awarded under this Act shall require that individuals in contact tracing and pandemic response positions are paid not less than the prevailing wage and fringe rates required under chapter 67 of title 41, United States Code (commonly known as the Service Contract Act ) for the area in which the work is performed. To the extent that a nonstandard wage determination is required to establish a prevailing wage for contact tracing or pandemic response positions for purposes of this Act, the Secretary of Labor shall issue such determination not later than 14 days after the date of enactment of this Act, based on a job description used by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and contractors or grantees performing contact tracing or pandemic response activities for State public health agencies.
