Giving the Secretary of the Interior authority to make decisions about buyouts without first needing OPM review or approval. 2. Authorizing the Director of the US Geological Survey to make term appointments of up to ten years for employees who are in scientific occupational series, and extendable for an additional five years, for a total of 15 years, notwithstanding the current statutory limitation of NTE 3 (or is it four) years for term appointments. Please let me know when you might be able to get these work products done, without displacing any OCL priorities, of course. Thanks, Scott Scott J.
