General Information

EPA is amending the PeoplePlus system of records (EPA–1) to reflect the transition of (1) human resources records from PeoplePlus and (2) payroll records from the Defense Finance and Accounting Services (DFAS) to the Department of the Interior’s (DOI) Interior Business Center’s (IBC) Federal Personnel and Payroll System (FPPS). The IBC will process personnel actions and payroll for EPA employees through FPPS, including computing each employee’s gross pay, subtracting deductions and benefits and forwarding net payments to banks. EPA will then perform labor distribution and enter the information into its central accounting system. The records in FPPS have various uses by Agency personnel offices, including screening qualifications of employees; determining status, eligibility, and employee’s rights and benefits under pertinent laws and regulations governing federal employment; computing length of service; and providing other information needed to support personnel services. The electronic records and their automated or microform equivalents may also be used to locate individuals for personnel research.

Modernizing and consolidating payroll processing services is part of an overall e-government effort led by the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) to consolidate executive branch payroll providers, develop shared service centers, simplify and standardize civilian payroll procedures across the Federal government. This action gives notice that the human resources and payroll processing functions are being transferred to the IBC.
