OFFICE OF PERSONNEL

5 CFR Part 532
RIN 3206–AM09
Prevailing Rate Systems;
Nonappropriated Fund Wage and
Survey Areas
U.S. Office of Personnel
Management.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The U.S. Office of Personnel
Management is issuing a final rule to
correct several minor formatting,
spelling, and typographical errors in
appendix D to subpart B of part 532—
Nonappropriated Fund (NAF) Wage and
Survey Areas. This document also
corrects editorial or printing errors,
inconsistencies, and omissions made in
previously published rules. The purpose
of this rule is not to make policy
changes for Federal Wage System (FWS)
NAF employees but rather to ensure
Appendix D accurately reflects the
correct wage area definitions for NAF
employees as recommended by the
Federal Prevailing Rate Advisory
Committee (FPRAC). FWS NAF
employees will not be affected by the
corrections in this final rule because the
lead agency for FWS NAF surveys has
followed FPRAC recommended wage
area definitions when conducting wage
surveys and publishing wage schedules.
For the convenience of the reader,
Appendix D is being reprinted in its
entirety.
SUMMARY:
rule (75 FR 17316) to make several
minor corrections to appendix D to
subpart B of part 532—Nonappropriated
Fund (NAF) Wage and Survey Areas.
The revisions contained in this rule
concern formatting, spelling, and
typographical errors. This document
also corrects editorial or printing errors,
inconsistencies, and omissions made in
previously published rules. The purpose
of this rule is not to make policy
changes for Federal Wage System (FWS)
NAF employees but rather to ensure
Appendix D accurately reflects the
correct wage area definitions for NAF
employees as recommended by the
Federal Prevailing Rate Advisory
Committee (FPRAC). FWS NAF
employees are not affected by the
corrections in this final rule because the
lead agency for FWS NAF surveys has
followed FPRAC recommended wage
area definitions when conducting wage
surveys and publishing wage schedules.
Appendix D is being reprinted in its
entirety. The proposed rule had a 30day comment period, during which
OPM received no comments. Therefore,
we are adopting the proposed rule as
final.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
I certify that these regulations will not
have a significant economic impact on
a substantial number of small entities
because they will affect only Federal
agencies and employees.

SUMMARY:
VerDate Mar<15>2010
15:00 Aug 12, 2010
Jkt 220001
On
December 6, 2000, the National Science
and Technology Council, Office of
Science and Technology Policy of the
Executive Office of the President
(OSTP), published in the Federal
Register (65 FR 76260) the Federal
Policy on Research Misconduct (OSTP
Policy) as a final, government-wide
policy addressing research misconduct.
The purpose of the policy was to
establish: (1) Uniformity among the
Federal agencies’ definitions of research
misconduct, and (2) consistency in
Federal agencies’ processes for
responding to allegations of research
misconduct. The OSTP Policy covers
both intramural research as well as
extramural research.
This rule establishes U.S. Department
of Agriculture (USDA or the
Department) regulations to permanently
implement the provisions of the OSTP
Policy applicable to extramural
research. An interim USDA Research
Misconduct Policy was issued as a
Secretary’s Memorandum on Research
Misconduct Policies and Procedures in
July, 2006. The Secretary’s
Memorandum is consistent with the
OSTP Policy. The substance of the
regulation is the same as the policies
and procedures in the Secretary’s
Memorandum that relate to extramural
research. Accordingly, all USDA
agencies that conduct or support
extramural research are expected either
to: (1) Establish procedures to foster
integrity in research activities, respond
to allegations of research misconduct,
and remedy findings of research
misconduct, consistent with applicable

developing its own research misconduct
procedures.
The regulation sets forth in Title 7 of
the Code of Federal Regulations, a new
part 3022 (7 CFR part 3022), referred to
below as the regulation. The rule
defines a number of terms that are used
in new part 3022. Definitions of the
following terms are set forth in § 3022.1:
Adjudication; Agency Research Integrity
Officer (ARIO); allegation; applied
research; Assistant Inspector General for
Investigations; basic research;
extramural research; fabrication;
falsification; finding of research
misconduct; inquiry; intramural
research; investigation; OIG; OSTP;
plagiarism; preponderance of the
evidence; research; research institution;
research misconduct; research record;
USDA; and USDA Research Integrity
Officer (RIO).
Summary of Comments and
Recommendations
The proposed rule was published in
the Federal Register on November 24,
2008 (73 FR 70915), requesting
comments from the public. Comments
were received on the proposed rule from
three organizations including The
Council on Government Relations
(COGR), Arizona State University
(ASU), and the Physicians Committee
for Responsible Medicine (PCRM). ASU
stated that it supported COGR’s
comments which are evidenced by the
comments being duplicative in nature.
The comments are summarized as
follows:
(1) Comment: Concern that the
proposed rule is intended only as core
elements for the Department’s agencies
and that individual agencies within the
Department can and may implement
separate policies that are consistent
with the proposed rule. The Department
is urged to reevaluate whether this
approach achieves the Federal goals of
consistency and uniformity.
Response: The proposed rule
implements the OSTP policy and serves
as the core policy for the Department.
The agencies may supplement the core
with agency requirements. USDA’s
approach is similar in nature to other
streamlining efforts whereas there is a
standard that is supplemented with
agency specifics. This approach is
necessary to meet the unique mission
and structure of each agency within the
Department while maintaining
consistency to the extent possible.
(2) Comment: A research institution
must have the right to conduct an
inquiry before reporting the allegation to
the USDA. Such a provision is
incorporated in the Federal Policy and
common in the policies of other

OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT
5 CFR Part 532
RIN 3206-AM09
Prevailing Rate Systems; Nonappropriated Fund Wage and Survey
Areas
AGENCY: U.S. Office of Personnel Management.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The U.S. Office of Personnel Management is issuing a final
rule to correct several minor formatting, spelling, and typographical
errors in appendix D to subpart B of part 532--Nonappropriated Fund
(NAF) Wage and Survey Areas. This document also corrects editorial or
printing errors, inconsistencies, and omissions made in previously
published rules. The purpose of this rule is not to make policy changes
for Federal Wage System (FWS) NAF employees but rather to ensure
Appendix D accurately reflects the correct wage area definitions for
NAF employees as recommended by the Federal Prevailing Rate Advisory
Committee (FPRAC). FWS NAF employees will not be affected by the
corrections in this final rule because the lead agency for FWS NAF
surveys has followed FPRAC recommended wage area definitions when
conducting wage surveys and publishing wage schedules. For the
convenience of the reader, Appendix D is being reprinted in its
entirety.
DATES: This rule is effective on September 13, 2010.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Madeline Gonzalez, (202) 606-2838; e-
mail pay-performance-policy@opm.gov; or FAX: (202) 606-4264.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 6, 2010, the U.S. Office of
Personnel Management (OPM) issued a proposed rule (75 FR 17316) to make
several minor corrections to appendix D to subpart B of part 532--
Nonappropriated Fund (NAF) Wage and Survey Areas. The revisions
contained in this rule concern formatting, spelling, and typographical
errors. This document also corrects editorial or printing errors,
inconsistencies, and omissions made in previously published rules. The
purpose of this rule is not to make policy changes for Federal Wage
System (FWS) NAF employees but rather to ensure Appendix D accurately
reflects the correct wage area definitions for NAF employees as
recommended by the Federal Prevailing Rate Advisory Committee (FPRAC).
FWS NAF employees are not affected by the corrections in this final
rule because the lead agency for FWS NAF surveys has followed FPRAC
recommended wage area definitions when conducting wage surveys and
publishing wage schedules. Appendix D is being reprinted in its
entirety. The proposed rule had a 30-day comment period, during which
OPM received no comments. Therefore, we are adopting the proposed rule
as final.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
I certify that these regulations will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities because they
will affect only Federal agencies and employees.

2. Revise appendix D to subpart B to read as follows:
Appendix D to Subpart B of Part 532--Nonappropriated Fund Wage and
Survey Areas
This appendix lists the wage area definitions for NAF employees.
With a few exceptions, each area is defined in terms of county units
or independent cities. Each wage area definition consists of:
(1) Wage area title. Wage areas usually carry the title of the
county or counties surveyed.
(2) Survey area definition. Lists each county or independent
city in the survey area.
(3) Area of application definition. Lists each county or
independent city which, in addition to the survey area, is in the
area of application.
