redefine Clearwater and Mahnomen Counties and the White Earth Indian

northern Minnesota to one FWS wage schedule.

Prevailing Rate Systems; Change in Federal Wage System Survey Job
The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is issuing a proposed
rule that would change a Federal Wage System appropriated fund optional
survey job, Industrial Electronic Controls Repairer, so that its grade
level and title would better reflect the level of work and occupational

local wage surveys to set pay levels for the Government's blue-collar
workforce.
