Court Temporarily Suspends Federal Contract Minimum Wage As Applied to Certain Seasonal Recreational Operations
Your Government counsel.™
The Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit has suspended the enforcement of regulations which impose a $15 minimum hourly wage on many concession contracts and permits to the extent those authorizations are “in connection with seasonal recreational services or seasonal recreational equipment rental for the general public on federal lands.” The regulations had been in effect as of January 30, 2022 and where issued pursuant to Executive Order No. 14042. While the court held that the plaintiffs had “demonstrated an entitlement to relief” from the regulations “in their particular circumstances,” the court did not provide any further information as to the reason for its determination. The suspension will stay in place until the court issues a final decision in the case.
A brief summary of the events which led to the current court action is set out below:
