2     records are true and accurate; (ii) the hourly rate paid to
3     each worker is not less than the general prevailing rate of
4     hourly wages required by this Act; and (iii) the contractor

13     payroll is in violation of this Act and guilty of a Class B
14     misdemeanor. The public body in charge of the project shall
15     keep the records submitted in accordance with this
16     paragraph (2) of subsection (a) for a period of not less
17     than 3 years. The records submitted in accordance with this
18     paragraph (2) of subsection (a) shall be considered public
19     records, except an employee's address, telephone number,
20     and social security number, and made available in
21     accordance with the Freedom of Information Act. The public
22     body shall accept any reasonable submissions by the
23     contractor that meet the requirements of this Section.

29 agents. Upon 2 business days' notice, the contractor and each
30 subcontractor shall make such records available at all
