A contractor on a covered public works project must contract with an approved apprenticeship program by submitting which form to the program before starting work?
a.DAS-1 within 30 days after completion
b.PWC-100 to the awarding body only
c.DAS-140 Contract Award Information form to each applicable apprenticeship committee
d.Form A-1-131 to the CSLB headquarters
Explanation
Under Labor Code §1777.5 and Title 8 CCR §230, contractors awarded public works contracts must give written notice of the award by submitting a DAS-140 'Public Works Contract Award Information' form to the apprenticeship committee in each craft and locality of the project within 10 days of award (and before construction begins). The DAS-1 is the apprentice registration form, not the contract-award notice. The PWC-100 is filed by the awarding body, not the contractor, to register the project with DIR under §1773.3. Failure to submit DAS-140 is a §1777.7 violation that can trigger penalties and debarment.
