Career Transition Assistance for Surplus and Displaced Federal
Employees; Effective Date Correction

AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.

ACTION: Final regulation; correction of effective date.

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

SUMMARY: The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) published final
regulations to implement the President's memorandum of September 12,
1995, requiring Federal agencies to develop career transition
assistance programs to help their employees affected by downsizing
obtain other employment on June 9, 1997 (62 FR 31315). The effective
date in the DATES section on page 31315, column 1, contained incomplete
and misleading information. This document corrects the DATES section as
set forth below to accurately reflect OPM's intent with regard to the
effective dates and compliance dates of the final regulations.

DATES: Effective dates: The final regulation is effective July 9, 1997,
except that the revision of subpart F of 5 CFR part 330 is effective
September 8, 1997.
    Compliance dates: Agencies will comply with the regulatory changes
affecting the Interagency Career Transition Assistance Plan (ICTAP) by
July 9, 1997. Agencies will amend their Career Transition Assistance
Plans (CTAP), reflecting regulatory changes on providing internal
selection priority and services to their surplus and displaced
employees, as soon as possible, but no later than September 8, 1997.
