Résumé
The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) published an interim regulation for comment on March 25, 1997, (62 FR 14188) to increase the cost-of-living allowance (COLA) rates paid to General Schedule, U.S. Postal Service, and certain other Federal employees in Kauai County, Hawaii, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The effect of this interim regulation was to raise the COLA rate for Kauai County from 20 percent to 22.5 percent, and to raise the COLA rate for the U.S. Virgin Islands from 17.5 percent to 20 percent. These increases were the result of cost-of-living surveys conducted in Hawaii, Alaska, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands in February, 1996. OPM received no comments on the interim regulation. Therefore, we are adopting the rates as final without change.
