Personnel Management Office
The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is proposing to redefine the Federal Wage System (FWS) wage area coverage of the Raven Rock Mountain Complex (RRMC), which spans small portions of Washington County, Maryland, which is in the Washington-Baltimore-Arlington wage area, and Adams County, Pennsylvania, which is in the Harrisburg-York- Lebanon, PA wage area. OPM proposes to redefine the RRMC portion of Adams County from the Harrisburg-York-Lebanon, PA wage area to the Washington-Baltimore-Arlington wage area so that all of the RRMC is in the same wage area. Portions of Adams County outside of RRMC would continue to be defined to the Harrisburg-York-Lebanon, PA, wage area. This change would align wage area coverage for installations within the Pentagon Reservation and prevent pay disparities among FWS employees working at the RRMC.
