Submission for OMB Review and Request for Comments on Federal 
Wage System Data Collection Forms

AGENCY: U.S. Office of Personnel Management.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Public 
Law 104-13, May 22, 1995), this notice announces that the Office of 
Personnel Management (OPM) has submitted to the Office of Management 
and Budget a request for review of data collection forms. The 
Establishment Information Form, the Wage Data Collection Form, and the 
Wage Data Collection Continuation Form are wage survey forms developed 
by OPM and used by two lead agencies, the Department of Defense and the 
Department of Veterans Affairs. Data collectors survey 21,200 
businesses annually to determine the level of wages paid by private 
sector establishments for representative jobs common to both private 
industry and the Federal Government. Each survey collection requires 1-
4 hours of respondent burden, resulting in a total yearly burden of 
75,800 hours. The lead agencies use this information to establish rates 
of pay for Federal Wage System employees. For copies of this proposal, 
contact Jim Farron on [phone], or email to 
[e-mail].

DATES: Comments on this proposal must be received within 30 calendar 
days after September 5, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Send or deliver comments to--Donald J. Winstead, Assistant 
Director for Compensation Policy, Human Resources Systems Service, 
Office of Personnel Management, 1900 E Street NW., Room 7H31, 
Washington, DC 20415.

FOR INFORMATION REGARDING ADMINISTRATION COORDINATION CONTACT: Angela 
Graham Humes, Wage Systems Division, [phone].
