SUMMARY: The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is issuing a final
rule to transfer lead agency responsibility for the Miami, Florida,
Federal Wage System (FWS) wage area from the Department of Defense
(DOD) to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for pay-setting
purposes. FWS employment at Homestead Air Force Base (AFB), the current
host installation for the Miami wage area, has declined since Hurricane
Andrew in 1992 and is expected to decline further. The VA Medical
Center is now the largest single employer of FWS employees in the wage
area, has the resources to carry out local wage surveys in the area,
and is willing to assume responsibility as lead agency.

EFFECTIVE DATE: November 17, 1994.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Angela Graham Humes, (202) 606-2848.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 14, 1994, OPM published an interim
rule (59 FR 30503) to transfer lead agency responsibility for the
Miami, Florida, FWS wage area from the Department of Defense to the
Department of Veterans Affairs. The interim rule provided a 30-day
period for public comment. OPM received no comments during the comment
period. Therefore, the interim rule is being 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
will affect only Federal agencies and employees.
