ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Office of Personnel
Management (OPM) is issuing final
rules that permit certain police officers
with the Metropolitan Washington
Airports Authority (MWAA) to elect
coverage under the special retirement
provisions for law enforcement officers.
We are also amending the regulations
governing special retirement provisions
for law enforcement officers and officers
and firefighters employed under the
Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS)
and the Federal Employees Retirement
System (FERS). These changes were
made to clarify and interpret previously
promulgated regulations.
DATES: This final rule is effective July
22, 2005.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Mary Ellen Wilson, (202) 606–0299.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July
25, 2001, we published (at 66 FR 38524)
interim regulations to implement
provisions of section 636 of the
Treasury and General Government
Appropriations Act, 2001, enacted
December 21, 2000, which is
incorporated by reference as Appendix
C to the Consolidated Appropriations
Act, 2001, Public Law 106–554 (114
Stat. 2763). Section 636 of the Treasury
and General Government
Appropriations Act, 2001, permits
certain police officers with the
Metropolitan Washington Airports
Authority (MWAA) to elect coverage
under the special retirement provisions

for law enforcement officers. The
interim rules issued on July 25, 2001,
established procedures for these MWAA
police officers to elect coverage under
the special retirement provisions for law
enforcement officers. The interim rule
also made other amendments to
previously promulgated rules regulating
law enforcement officer and firefighter
retirement coverage under the Civil
Service Retirement System (CSRS) and
the Federal Employees Retirement
System (FERS).
OPM received comments from one
Federal agency. The commentor noted
that the revised definition of agency
head at 5 CFR 831.902 and 5 CFR
842.802 deleted language from the
second sentence of the definition.
Specifically, the phrase ‘‘for provisions
dealing with law enforcement officers
and firefighters’’ was deleted from the
definition of agency head at 5 CFR
842.802, and the phrase ‘‘or to the
deputy department head’’ was deleted
from the definition of agency head at 5
CFR 831.902 and 5 CFR 842.802. The
commentor noted that the deletion of
these phrases could be interpreted as a
new restriction on an agency’s ability to
delegate decision-making authority. We
agree with the commentor. The
definition of agency head was revised
only to clarify and interpret the existing
extent of an agency head’s authority. We
are restoring the deleted language to
indicate that the existing ability of an
agency head to delegate decisionmaking authority is unchanged.
Executive Order 12866, Regulatory
Review
This rule has been reviewed by the
Office of Management and Budget in
accordance with Executive Order 12866.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
I certify that this regulation will not
have a significant economic impact on
a substantial number of small entities
because the regulation will only affect a
small number of employees of the
Metropolitan Washington Airports
Authority.

and charges are being increased to cover

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
David Bowden, Jr., Chief,
Standardization Branch, (202) 720–
3506.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Agricultural Marketing Act
(AMA) of 1946 (7 U.S.C. 1621 et seq.)
authorizes official voluntary grading
and certification of eggs, poultry, and
rabbits on a user-fee basis. The AMA
provides that reasonable fees be
collected from users of program services
to cover, as nearly as practicable, the
costs of services rendered. The AMS
regularly reviews these programs to
determine if fees are adequate and if
costs are reasonable.
A recent review determined that the
existing fee schedule, effective January
1, 2004, would not generate sufficient
revenues to cover program costs while
maintaining an adequate reserve balance
in FY 2006. Costs in FY 2006 are
projected at $31.9 million. Without a fee
increase, FY 2006 revenues are
projected at $30.5 million and trust fund
balances would be $14.5 million. With
a fee increase, FY 2006 revenues are
projected at $31.9 million and trust fund
balances would remain at $15.9 million.
Employee salaries and benefits
account for approximately 82 percent of
the total operating budget. A general
and locality salary increase for Federal
employees, effective in January 2004,
materially affected program costs.
Projected cost estimates for that increase
were based on a salary increase of 2.0
percent, however, the increase was
actually 3.89 to 5.35 percent, depending
on locality. The last increase of 3.25 to
4.3 percent, depending on locality,
became effective in January 2005 and
another increase, estimated at 1.5
percent, is expected in January 2006.
Also, from October 2004 through
September 2006, salaries and fringe
benefits of federally-licensed State
employees will have increased by about
6.0 percent. This paragraph, which also
appeared in the proposed rule, has been
updated to reflect more current
information.
The impact of these cost increases
was determined for resident,
nonresident, and fee services. To offset
projected cost increases, the hourly
resident and nonresident rate will be
increased by approximately 5.8 percent
and the fee rate will be increased by
