OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT


Federal Salary Council; Meeting

AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.

ACTION: Notice of Meeting.

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

SUMMARY: The Federal Salary Council will meet at the time and location 
shown below. The Council is an advisory body composed of 
representatives of Federal employee organizations and experts in the 
fields of labor relations or pay policy. A provision of law enacted in 
2000 requires the President's Pay Agent (the Secretary of Labor and the 
Directors of the Office of Management and Budget and the Office of 
Personnel Management) to determine whether five additional metropolitan 
areas (Austin, TX, Las Vegas, NV, Louisville, KY, Nashville, TN, and 
Raleigh, NC) should become separate locality pay areas under the 
locality pay program for General Schedules employees in 2002. The law 
authorizes the required determinations to be made by using salary 
surveys conducted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, salary survey data 
compiled by organizations or entities for private sector businesses, or 
a combination of these data sources. The Federal Salary Council will 
review the results of special studies directed by the Office of 
Personnel Management and develop recommendations for the Pay Agent on 
locality pay methodology as it pertains to the five metropolitan areas. 
The Pay Agent will submit a report to Congress later this year. The 
meeting is open to the public.

DATES: July 23, 2001, at 9:30 a.m.
    Location: Office of Personnel Management, 1900 E Street NW., Room 
5303 (Pendleton Room), Washington, DC.
