5 CFR Part 532
RIN 3206-AM32
Prevailing Rate Systems; Redefinition of the Madison, Wisconsin,
and Southwestern Wisconsin Appropriated Fund Federal Wage System Wage
Areas
AGENCY: U.S. Office of Personnel Management.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The U.S. Office of Personnel Management is issuing a final
rule to redefine the geographic boundaries of the Madison, Wisconsin,
and Southwestern Wisconsin appropriated fund Federal Wage System (FWS)
wage areas. The final rule redefines Adams and Waushara Counties, WI,
from the Southwestern Wisconsin wage area to the Madison wage area.
These changes are based on consensus recommendations of the Federal
Prevailing Rate Advisory Committee to best match the above counties to
a nearby FWS survey area.
DATES: This regulation is effective on July 5, 2011.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Madeline Gonzalez, (202) 606-2838; e-
mail [email protected]; or FAX: (202) 606-4264.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 18, 2010, the U.S. Office of
Personnel Management (OPM) issued a proposed rule (75 FR 70616) to
redefine Adams and Waushara Counties, WI, from the Southwestern
Wisconsin wage area to the Madison, WI, wage area. These changes are
based on consensus recommendations of the Federal Prevailing Rate
Advisory Committee to best match the above counties to a nearby FWS
survey area. The proposed rule had a 30-day comment period during which
OPM received no comments.
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.
