5 CFR Part 532
RIN 3206-AF90
Prevailing Rate Systems: Change of Lead Agency Responsibility for
the Cleveland, Ohio, Wage Area for Pay-Setting Purposes
AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.
ACTION: Proposed rule with request for comments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is issuing a proposed
rule to change the lead agency responsibility for the Cleveland, Ohio,
Federal Wage System (FWS) wage area from the National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (NASA) to the Department of Veterans' Affairs (VA)
for pay-setting purposes. This change would recognize the fact that VA
is now the major employer of FWS employees in the Cleveland, Ohio, FWS
wage area.
DATES: Comments must be received on or before July 14, 1994.
ADDRESSES: Send or deliver comments to Donald J. Winstead, Acting
Assistant Director for Compensation Policy, Personnel Systems and
Oversight Group, Office of Personnel Management, room 6H31, 1900 E
Street NW., Washington, DC 20415.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Mark Allen, (202) 606-2848.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA) is the lead agency for the Cleveland, Ohio,
Federal Wage System (FWS) wage area, and the NASA Lewis Research Center
is the host activity for the local FWS wage survey. FWS employment at
the Center has been declining in recent years. NASA has requested that
the Department of Veterans' Affairs (VA) assume lead agency
responsibility for the Cleveland wage survey. VA now has more FWS
employees in the Cleveland wage area than any other agency, has the
resources to carry out local wage surveys in the wage area. and is
willing to assume responsibility as lead agency effective for the next
full-scale wage survey scheduled to begin in the wage area in April
1995. The Federal Prevailing Rate Advisory Committee has reviewed and
concurred with this proposed change.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
I certify that these regulations would not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities because they
would affect only Federal agencies and employees.
