Executive Summary II. Basis for APMS Plan Modification III. Changes to the APMS Plan I. Executive Summary NIST is expanding its current APMS direct-hire authority to simplify and expedite hiring in mission critical occupations. This amendment modifies the August 13, 2012 (77 FR 48128) amendment. Positions in the General Engineering, 801 series; General Physical Science, 1301 series; and Information Technology Management, 2210 series at the Pay Band III and above will be covered under the current NIST APMS direct-hire authority. NIST will continually monitor the effectiveness of this amendment. [FR Doc. 2019–07155 Filed 4–10–19; 8:45 am] amozie on DSK9F9SC42PROD with NOTICES II. Basis for APMS Plan Modification BILLING CODE 3510–13–P In August 2012, NIST published a Federal Register notice (77 FR 48128) which implemented direct-hire authority under 5 U.S.C. 3304(a)(3) on a permanent basis for the Nuclear Reactor Operation position in NIST’s Scientific and Engineering Technician (ZT) career path at the Pay Band III and above, and for all positions in NIST’s Scientific and Engineering (ZP) career path at the Pay Band III and above except for the Information Technology Management, 2210 series; the General Engineer, 801 series; and the General Physical Science, 1301 series. The modification in 2012 enabled NIST to hire, after public notice is given, any qualified applicant without regard to 5 U.S.C. 3309–3318, 5 CFR part 211, or 5 CFR part 337, subpart A. Based upon NIST’s hiring needs and the PMA objective of simplifying and expediting hiring, NIST is expanding its current APMS directhire authority to include all positions in the Scientific and Engineering (ZP) career path at the Pay Band III and above. NIST’s APMS allows the NIST Director to modify procedures if no new waiver from law or regulation is added. Given this modification is in accordance with existing law and regulation, the NIST Director is authorized to make the changes described in this notice. The modification to our final Federal Register notice, dated October 21, 1997 (62 FR 54604), with respect to our Staffing authorities is provided below. VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:50 Apr 10, 2019 Jkt 247001 III. Changes in the APMS Plan The APMS at NIST, published in the Federal Register on October 21, 1997 (62 FR 54604) is amended as follows: The information under the subsection titled: ‘‘Direct Hire: Critical Shortage Occupations’’ is replaced with: NIST uses direct-hire procedures for categories of occupations which require skills that are in short supply. All Nuclear Reactor Operator positions at the Pay Band III and above in the ZT Career Path constitute a shortage category, and all occupations at the Pay Band III and above in the ZP Career Path constitute a shortage category. Any positions in these categories may be filled through direct-hire procedures in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 3304(a)(3). NIST advertises the availability of job opportunities in direct-hire occupations by posting on the OPM USAJOBS website. NIST will follow internal direct-hire procedures for accepting applications and continue to provide consideration to eligible veteran preference applicants.
