Agency

74 FR 9951U.S. Office of Personnel Management.

Summary

74 FR 9951The U.S. Office of Personnel Management is issuing a final rule to abolish the Santa Clara, California, nonappropriated fund (NAF) Federal Wage System (FWS) wage area and redefine Santa Clara County, CA, to the Monterey, CA, NAF wage area and Alameda, Contra Costa, and San Francisco Counties, CA, to the Solano, CA, NAF wage area. San Mateo County, CA, will no longer be defined to a wage area. These changes are necessary because the closure of the Moffett Federal Airfield Navy Exchange left the Santa Clara wage area without an activity having the capability to conduct a local wage survey.

Dates

74 FR 9951Effective date: This regulation is effective on March 9, 2009. Applicability date: This regulation applies on the first day of the first applicable pay period beginning on or after November 15, 2008.
