MEMORANDUM FOR. Colonel White
2 JUL 196.4
SUBJECT: Draft Notice on Average Grade of Agency
Positions
This notice appears to cover most of the points I had in
mind. However I think the authorities and bench marks are somewhat
broad for effective long-term control and management of this
problem. The notice should provide a clear tie with manpower and
budget control. Therefore, please make provision in the n*Ice
that any proposal which results in a raising of the average Bode of
an
unit f
hi
h
l

or w

an annua
budget is prepared will be
explained by the requesting unit and submitted by the Direc
Personnel with recommendation to the Director of BPAM fo"nal
approval. I will look to the Agency Manpower Control Officer
as the central focal point in my office for keeping me apprisld' of
the effect of the proposed action. Obviously I will be more eptive
to proposals which have been compensated for within the Dir etorate
itself or which have no effect on Agency average grade, but I want to
be personally informed of the reasons for the specific actions being
proposed before implementation.
In addition, a statement should be included in the notice to
reflect the policy on assignment of personnel set forth in my Action
Memo A.378. This policy is intended to mean that under normal
circumstances, staff employees will not be assigned to positions
graded at more than two grades above the individual's grade. The
Director of Personnel should be the officer assigned the responsibility
for approving justified exceptions.
Finally I wish you would delete the reference to the Executive
Director-Comptroller in paragraph 3. The heads of the three units
under my immediate supervision are well aware of my feelings in
this matter and seek my review and approval before any T/O changes
are proposed. I will control the T/O's of these units as well as
the Office of the Director directly from here.
