Abstract
The findings of this component review are presented in two parts. Part One provides two sets of updated calculations for the regional adjustment. In the first set, only the salary data are updated, and the same geographic areas are used as in the current EPS Regional Adjustment. The other set of updated calculations provides an update to the geographic areas as well as the salary data. Part Two examines policy options in light of the updated calculations in Part One. Cost estimates and analysis are provided for several policy options to aid in evaluation and decision making regarding the EPS Regional Adjustment.
