Comments:

General: I beleave ther proposed NSPS will undermine the Cvil Service and hurt the mission of the DOD employee. subpart c pay,section 9901.373-Dod should continue to receive the same annual pay across -the - board that other GS/FWS workers receive. Subpart D Performence Mangaement -9901.401 to 9901.409: In order to insure fairness and accuracy, DOD employees should be able to appeal any performance rating to an independent grievance and arbitration process like they can do now. Subpart F Workforce shaping- Should not change! Subpart G Adverse Action-9901.701 to 9901.810The current standards approved by the courts to guid such bodies should continue to be used. Subpart I. Labor-Managemaent Relations-9901.901 to 9901.929-Has worked since 1978! There is no compelling reason to take away most of the collective bargaining rights or greivence rights. Any dispute board must be "jointly selected" by Management and the Union. Sincerily, Esther Mundy
