3206-AN11 201410 The Regulatory Plan and the Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 3206 Office of Personnel Management OPM Prevailing Rate Systems; Abolishment of the Portland, ME, Appropriated Fund Federal Wage System Wage Area

The U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is issuing a proposed rule that would abolish the Portland, Maine appropriated fund Federal Wage System wage area and redefine Androscoggin Cumberland and Sagadahoc Counties, ME to the Portsmouth, New Hampshire survey area and Franklin and Oxford Counties, ME and Coos County, NH to the Portsmouth area of application. These changes are necessary because the closure of the Naval Air Station (NAS) Brunswick left the Portland wage area without an activity having the capability to conduct a local wage survey.
