Re-using this document
Records of the United States Government - 17 USC 105, and this is the one source where that citation genuinely applies (it does NOT reach territorial material). NARA also states rights per record in useRestriction/accessRestriction and those are carried into the catalogue per document. 'Restricted - Possibly' and 'Undetermined' are NARA CATALOGUING PLACEHOLDERS meaning unadjudicated, not prohibitions - NARA serves those files publicly, and refusing them cost the Truman Library's ten-part Hastie interview on the first run.

News Release U.S. Department of Labor | May 8, 2019 U.S. Department of Labor Conducting Wage Survey of Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Islands Construction Projects GUAYNABO, PR – The U. S. Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division (WHD) is conducting a survey of all building, highway, residential, and heavy construction projects active in the U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico that occurred between July 1, 2017, and December 31, 2018. The purpose to establish prevailing wage rates as required under the Davis Bacon and Related Acts (DBRA). This survey is not limited to federally funded construction projects. "Participation in the survey by contractors and other interested parties is crucial to the wage-setting process. Davis-Bacon prevailing wage rates should reflect the actual wages and fringe benefits paid to construction workers in the local subdivision where the work takes place," said Wage and Hour Division Northeast Deputy Regional Administrator Maria Rosado. "Full participation will allow us to provide accurate prevailing wages and to create a complete wage determination which, in turn, will reduce the need for contractors to request additional classifications." WHD is sending notification letters and data collection forms (WD-10s) to all interested parties and contractors of which the Wage and Hour Division is aware. You do not have to receive a letter to participate in the survey. If you would like to receive a letter, please contact Angel A. Aguero at (267) 687-4059. Data must be postmarked by September 3, 2019, to be included in the survey. You can also participate in this survey electronically at www.dol.gov/whd/programs/dbra/wd10/index.htm.
