When the related industry within the local wage survey area fails to meet the criteria in [§ 532.309](/cfr/5/532.309.md) of this subpart, the lead agency shall obtain data related to the dominant industry from the survey area of the wage area which is determined to be the nearest similar area which will provide adequate data under the criteria in [§ 532.309](/cfr/5/532.309.md) of this subpart.
