**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :** 
1. Background

The final plan for the ECBC personnel demonstration project was published in
the Federal Register on December 29, 2009 (74 FR 68936–68966). The ECBC demonstration project involves: (1) Two appointment authorities (permanent and modified term); (2) extended probationary period for newly hired engineering and science employees; (3) pay banding; (4) streamlined delegatedexamining; (5) modified reduction-inforce (RIF) procedures; (6) simplified job classification; (7) a pay-for-performance based appraisal system; (8) academic degree and certificate training; (9) sabbaticals; and (10) a Voluntary Emeritus Corps.

2. Overview

With over one year of implementation experience, ECBC has recognized the need for several changes to the original project plan. This amendment addresses those changes and adds clarification of the waiver to 5 U.S.C. chapter 75, section 7512(4). There are three changes being made to the final project plan published December 29, 2009. First, the supervisory/team leader pay adjustments are currently reviewed annually based solely on the appraisal scores for the performance element, Team Project Leadership or Supervisor (EEO). During the annual review, this change incorporates the original criteria used during the pay adjustment approval process as well as the appraisal scores for the performance element Team Project Leadership or Supervisor (EEO). Decreases in the supervisory/team leader pay adjustments can be for any amount (including the full amount) of the current supervisory/team leader pay adjustment and will not be considered an adverse action. Second, during the hiring process, qualifications required for all positions are currently tied to the lowest level of the pay band. This change allows for hiring in the middle or higher end of the pay band for those positions that warrant experience and/
or skills in the intermediate or journeyman level of the pay band. And third, the within-grade buy-in is currently provided for employees who enter the demo by lateral transfer, reassignment, or realignment. This change will eliminate the within-grade buy-in for those employees as other pay flexibilities already in place allow for other compensation options.
