MATTER


DIGEST:


OF:  Israel Warshaw - Detail to National Science
     Foundation Excepted Position

 1. National Science Foundation employee was detailed
    more than 120 days from competitive service position
    to NSF excepted service position established under
    42 U.S.C. § 1873(a). Employee is not entitled to
    retroactive temporary promotion and backpay under
    our Turner-Caldwell decisions. 55 Comp. Gen. 539
    (1975), affirmed at 56 id. 427 (1977). Employee
    is not eligible for temporary promotion under these
    circumstances since provisions in Federal Personnel
    Manual for change from competitive to excepted
    appointment were not met.

2.  National Science Foundation employee was detailed
    more than 120 days between positions in NSF's ex-
    cepted service. Employee is not entitled to retro-
    active temporary promotion and backpay under our
    Turner-Caldwell decisions. 55 Comp. Gen. 539 (1975)
    affirmed at 56 id. 427 (1977). Remedy under Turner-


                   a      we ec s ons app es only LO UeLa is Win
                   competitive service or within excepted service under
                   the General Schedule.

     This decision is in response to the request of the Honorable
Richard C. Atkinson, Director, National Science Foundation (NSF),
concerning the entitlement of Dr. Israel Warshaw, an NSF employee, to
retroactive temporary promotions for two periods during which he was
detailed to a position within the NSF excepted service established under
42 U.S.C. § 1873(a). The issue is whether Dr. Warshaw is entitled to
retroactive promotions under our Turner-Caldwell decisions, 55 Comp. Gen.
Gen. 539 (1975), affirmed at 56 id. 427 (1977).

     The report from NSF states that Dr. Warshaw was detailed from a
position in the competitive service, GS-801-15, to serve as Acting
Director of the Engineering Division, a position in NSF's excepted
service, EE-801-II (equivalent in pay range to grade GS-17). This
detail ran from August 1, 1971, to March 27, 1972. During the detail
Dr. Warshaw left the competitive service effective January 23, 1972,
