           DIGESTS

           1.   A retired Air Force Colonel employed by the Office of the
                Comptroller of the Currency (COC), whose compensation is
                derived from assessments on banks, holds a position in
                the executive branch and is not thereby exempt from the
                dual compensation restrictions of 5 U.S.C. ,§ 5531,
                5532. The COC is a bureau within the Department of
                Treasury and the Comptroller performs his duties under
                the general direction of the Secretary of the Treasury.
                Because th COC is within an agency funded by
                appropriated funds it is not separated from general
                federalirevenues so as to be a nonappropriated fund
                instrumentality as that term was used in Denkler v.
                United States, 782 F.2d 1003 (Fed. Cir. 198 ), in
                exempting employees of certain nonappropiated fund
                instrumentalities from dual compensation reductions.

           2.   A retired Army Lieutenant Colonel employed-by the Federal
                Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), whose compensation
                is darived from assessments on banks, is not thereby
                exempt from the dual compensation restrictions of 5
                U.S.C. §§ 5531, 5532. The FDIC is a government
                corporation owned or controlled by the United States and
                thus is one of the entities specifically enumerated in
                the definition of positions subject to dual compensation
                reductions in subsection (b) of 5 U.S.C., § 5532. Because
                the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation is authorized
                to borrow-fr6i the Treasury and pledge the full faith and
                credit of the United States to the payment of its
                obligations it is not separated from general federal
                revenues so as to be a nonappropriated fund
                instrumentality as that term was used in Denkler v.
                United States, 782 F.2d 1003 (Fed. Cir. 1986).
