Prevailing Rate Systems; Definition of Santa Clara, CA, NAF Wage

Area to Alameda-Contra Costa, CA, NAF Wage Area

AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is issuing a final

rule to abolish the Santa Clara, California, Nonappropriated Fund (NAF)

Federal Wage System wage area for paysetting purposes. The Santa Clara

NAF wage area is composed of Santa Clara County (survey area) and San

Mateo County (area of application). The host activity for the Santa

Clara NAF wage area survey, Naval Air Station Moffett Field, will close

on July 1, 1994, and did not have the capability to carry out the local

wage survey scheduled to begin in the Santa Clara NAF wage area in

September 1993. No other installation in the Santa Clara NAF wage area

had the capability to conduct a wage survey. This regulation redefines

Santa Clara and San Mateo Counties to the area of application of the

Alameda-Contra Costa, California, NAF wage area.

EFFECTIVE DATE: June 27, 1994.

Mark Allen, (202) 606-2848.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 29, 1993, OPM published an

interim rule (58 FR 68715) to abolish the Santa Clara, California, NAF

wage area for pay-setting purposes and redefine its constituent

counties to the Alameda-Contra Costa, California, NAF wage area as

areas of application. The interim rule provided a 30-day period for

public comment. OPM received no comments during the comment period.

Therefore, the interim rule is adopted as a final rule.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

I certify that these regulations will not have a significant

economic impact on a substantial number of small entities because they

affect only Federal agencies and employees.
