    Federal Prevailing Rate Advisory Committee; Open Committee 
    Meeting
    
        According to the provisions of section 10 of the Federal Advisory 
    Committee Act (Pub. L. 92-463), notice is hereby given that meetings of 
    the Federal Prevailing Rate Advisory Committee will be held on--
    
    Thursday, June 5, 1997
    Thursday, June 19, 1997
    Thursday, July 3, 1997
    Thursday, July 17, 1997
    
        The meetings will start at 10:00 a.m. and will be held in Room 
    5A06A, Office of Personnel Management Building, 1900 E Street, NW., 
    Washington, DC.
        The Federal Prevailing Rate Advisory Committee is composed of a 
    Chair, five representatives from labor unions holding exclusive 
    bargaining rights for Federal blue-collar employees, and five 
    representatives from Federal agencies. Entitlement to membership on the 
    Committee is provided for in 5 U.S.C. 5347.
        The Committee's primary responsibility is to review the Prevailing 
    Rate System and other matters pertinent to establishing prevailing 
    rates under subchapter IV, chapter 53, 5 U.S.C., as amended, and from 
    time to time advise the Office of Personnel Management.
        These scheduled meetings will start in open session with both labor 
    and management representatives attending. During the meeting either the 
    labor members or the management members may caucus separately with the 
    Chair to devise strategy and formulate positions. Premature disclosure 
    of the matters discussed in these caucuses would unacceptably impair 
    the ability of the Committee to reach a consensus on the matters being 
    considered and would disrupt substantially the disposition of its 
    business. Therefore, these caucuses will be closed to the public 
    because of a determination made by the Director of the Office of 
    Personnel Management under the provisions of section 10(d) of the 
    Federal Advisory Committee Act (Pub. L. 92-463) and 5 U.S.C. 
    552b(c)(9)(B). These caucuses may, depending on the issues involved, 
    constitute a substantial portion of a meeting.
        Annually, the Chair compiles a report of pay issues discussed and 
    concluded
    
    [[Page 25679]]
    
    recommendations. These reports are available to the public, upon 
    written request to the Committee's Secretary.
        The public is invited to submit material in writing to the Chair on 
    Federal Wage System pay matters felt to be deserving of the Committee's 
    attention. Additional information on these meetings may be obtained by 
    contacting the Committee's Secretary, Office of Personnel Management, 
    Federal Prevailing Rate Advisory Committee, Room 5559, 1900 E Street, 
    NW., Washington, DC 20415 (202) 606-1500.
    
        Dated: May 1, 1997.
    Phyllis G. Foley,
    Chair, Federal Prevailing Rate Advisory Committee.
