Prevailing Rate Systems; Redefinition 

of Certain Appropriated Fund Federal 

Wage System Wage Areas; 

Corrections 

AGENCY: U.S. Office of Personnel 

Management. 

ACTION: Corrections to final rule. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Office of Personnel 

Management published a final rule in 

the Federal Register on May 4, 2009 (74 

FR 20405), redefining certain 

appropriated fund Federal Wage 

Systems wage areas. This document

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In a final 

rule published in the Federal Register 

on May 4, 2009 (74 FR 20405), the U.S. 

Office of Personnel Management (OPM) 

inadvertently omitted Troup County, 

GA, from the area of application of the 

Columbus, GA, Federal Wage System 

(FWS) wage area. Troup County should 

have been listed immediately following 

Taylor County. 

OPM inadvertently listed McDonald 

County, MO, as part of the area of 

application of the Southern Missouri 

FWS wage area. McDonald County 

should not have been listed because 

OPM had previously redefined this 

county to the Tulsa, OK, FWS area of 

application in a final rule issued on 

February 9, 2009 (74 FR 6351). 

The final regulations listed 

Washabaugh County, SD, as part of the 

area of application of the Eastern South 

Dakota FWS wage area. Washabaugh 

County should not have been listed 

because it no longer exists, having 

merged with Jackson County, SD, in 

1983. 

This document corrects the final 

regulation by revising the listings for the 

Columbus, GA, Southern Missouri, and 

Eastern South Dakota wage areas.
