MATTER OF: Ms. Gwenm Herring * Position classification
               appeal


DIGEST:


Certain employees of the Internal Revenue Service
appealed their position classification to the Civil
Service Comnission. Since Commission determinations
on classification appeals are binding on this Office
under 5 U.S.C. 65112(a) (1970), GAO has no authority
to modify such action.


     The National Treasury Employees Union, Chapter 67, Ogden, Utah,
requests that we investigate and report to it on an appeal by certain
