Who is responsible for prevailing wage increases on a lump sum contract in Illinois?

IllinoisPrevailing Wages

If there is a prevailing wage increase in the middle of a lump sum public agency construction contract, is the public agency responsible to pay change orders to the contractors for the increased wages or are the wages "locked" in at the beginning of the contract such that the contractors only have to pay the wages per the effective date of the contract?
