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

SUMMARY: The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) published a final
rule on October 21, 1998 (63 FR 56430), concerning cost-of-living
allowance rates for certain Federal employees in Kauai, HI, and the
U.S. Virgin Islands. This rule adopted as final a previous interim rule
(62 FR 14188, March 25, 1997) that raised the COLA rates in these two
areas. In transcribing the implementation date from the interim rule,
we inadvertently used ``1998'' instead of ``1997.'' The correct
implementation date is shown in the DATES section that follows.

DATES: Effective date: November 20, 1998. Implementation date: The rate
increases authorized by these regulations are applicable as of the
first day of the first pay period beginning on or after March 25, 1997.
