Pursuant to Public Act 194 of 1979, fifty percent of the persons working on this project and employed by the prime contractor or his/her subcontractors shall have been residents of the State of Michigan for not less than one year before beginning work. The 50 percent requirement shall be reduced to the extent that Michigan residents are not available. This requirement will not be operative or shall be reduced to the extent necessary to comply with a federal law or regulation concerning federal funds used for the project. This requirement shall not apply to employers who are signatories to collective bargaining agreements which allow for the portability of employees or an interstate basis.
