This publication contains data (as of June 30, 2020) on over 9,000 Federal civil service leadership and support positions in the legislative and executive branches of the Federal Government that may be subject to noncompetitive appointment (e.g., positions such as agency heads and their immediate sub- ordinates, policy executives and advisors, and aides who report to these offi- cials). The duties of many such positions may involve advocacy of Administra- tion policies and programs and the incumbents usually have a close and confidential working relationship with the agency head or other key officials. Following are the major categories of positions listed: • Executive Schedule and salary-equivalent positions paid at the rates established for levels I through V of the Executive Schedule; • Senior Executive Service (SES) “General” positions; • Senior Foreign Service positions; • Schedule C positions excepted from the competitive service by the Presi- dent, or by the Director, Office of Personnel Management, because of the confidential or policy-determining nature of the position duties; and • Other positions at the GS–14 and above level excepted from the competi- tive civil service by law because of the confidential or policy-determining nature of the position duties. See Appendix 2 for more details on SES appointments and Appendix 3 for more details on Schedule C appointments. Additional information on the po- sitions listed and the Federal salary schedules under which they are paid is provided in the appendices. The Legend on the following page shows the codes and acronyms used in this publication. DISCLAIMER The information for this committee print was provided by the U.S. Office of Personnel Management [OPM]. (iii) LEGEND Position Location (Column 1) Listed are the cities, States/Provinces and foreign countries in which the positions are located. Countries and cities (or other subdivisions) are shown for overseas posts. Note that “Washington, DC” includes positions in the entire metropolitan area and therefore may include certain cities and counties in the States of Maryland and Virginia. Position Title (Column 2) Listed are the position titles and the names of the organizations in which they are located. Name of Incumbent (Column 3) Listed are the names of individuals serving under other than career appointments. The phrase “Career Incumbent” is shown for positions incumbered by career appointees. The term “Vacant” is shown for positions that were not occupied on June 30, 2020, the “as of” date of this publication. Note the law requires “member” positions in certain agencies (e.g., boards, committees, and commissions) be filled on a bipartisan basis. For such positions, the following letter codes are shown in parentheses following the name of the incumbent: (D) = Democrat (I) = Independent (R) = Republican Type of Appointment (Column 4) Listed are letter codes that denote the type of appointment under which the position incumbent is serving. Note that several categories of positions can be filled by more than one type of appointment, e.g., SES positions listed in this publication may be filled by using career, noncareer, limited emergency, or limited term appointment authorities. Therefore, no “Type of Appointment” is shown for such positions when they are vacant. PAS = Presidential Appointment with Senate Confirmation PA = Presidential Appointment (without Senate Confirmation) CA = Career Appointment NA = Noncareer Appointment EA = Limited Emergency Appointment TA = Limited Term Appointment SC = Schedule C Excepted Appointment XS = Appointment Excepted by Statute (v) vi LEGEND Pay Plan (Column 5) Listed are letter codes that denote the Federal salary schedule or pay system under which the position incumbents are going to be paid. Tables showing the salary range for major pay systems are contained in Appendix 4. AD = Administratively Determined Rates ES = Senior Executive Service EX = Executive Schedule FA = Foreign Service Chiefs of Mission FE = Senior Foreign Service FP = Foreign Service Specialist GS = General Schedule PD = Daily Pay Rate* (per diem) SL = Senior Level TM = Federal Housing Finance Board Merit Pay VH = Farm Credit Administration Pay Plan WC = Without Compensation* OT = Other Pay Plan* (all those not listed separately) * Although not pay plans, these codes are shown for information purposes. Level, Grade, or Pay (Column 6) Listed are numerical and letter codes that denote the level, grade or salary of the position incumbered: Levels I through V of the Executive Schedule Grades 1 through 15 of the General Schedule Annual Salary in Dollars Daily Pay Rate in Dollars If there is no entry in this column, the position does not have an established level, grade, or pay rate. For example, the pay rate for Senior Executive Service and Senior Level positions is “personal,” i.e., attached to the incumbent, not the position. The pay rate for each new appointee is set by the appointing authority (usually the agency head) on a case-by-case basis. Annual salary schedules and pay ranges for such positions are shown in Appendix 4. Tenure (Column 7) Listed are the terms or durations of the appointment in years. If there is no entry in this column, the appointment has no fixed term. Expires (Column 8) Listed are the expiration dates for time-limited appointments. If there is no entry in this column, the incumbent is not serving under a time-limited appointment. However, many member positions on agency advisory boards, councils, and commissions are filled initially for a fixed term, but the incumbents may (and often do) serve beyond the expiration date until they are replaced. In such cases, no expiration date is shown.

The region has suffered for decades from extreme poverty, population migration, and an eroding economic base. Federal programs tend to be inflexible, and local communities are often unable to meet the requirements these programs entail. We are looking at deeply rooted problems that require high-level answers.

  • Continuation of Locality Payments for Non-General Schedule Employees
    The President's Pay Agent Washington, DC 20415-0001 November 24, 2014 MEMORANDUM FOR HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES SUBJECT: Continuation of Locality Payments for Non-General Schedule Employees The law requires that locality pay for non-General Schedule (GS) categories of employees must be renewed each year (5 U.S.C. 5304(h)). Each year, the President’s Pay Agent issues a memorandum to continue locality pay for non-GS categories. This memorandum continues locality payments in 2015 for the same Governmentwide and single-agency categories of employees who are authorized to receive 2014 locality payments, except where agencies have informed us they no longer need locality payments for certain single-agency categories of employees. This action does not increase percentage rates of locality pay and does not authorize locality pay for any categories of employees not already receiving locality pay. Under the President’s alternative pay plan for 2015, locality pay percentages will continue at the same rates that were in effect since 2010 for the Governmentwide categories shown in Attachment 1 with no further action required by any agency. Under the statute, locality payments may be made to single-agency categories of employees only at the request of the head of an Executive agency. Attachment 2 shows single-agency categories receiving locality pay in 2014, and these categories will continue to receive locality pay in 2015 at existing percentage rates without any further action required by any agency unless the head of an Executive
