Do locality rate applies to Special Rate tables? Government Jobs?
Hello all,
I have been interviewed for a very promising job with the government. I know I am going to be offered a special rate (see link to table) because I am an Engineer.

However, I wanted to know, will they apply the locality pay adjustment? The job is in Atlanta (19.29%).
Does anyone know? I was unaware or else I would have asked during my interview. I searched this whole site and I haven't found anything. I would like to know in case I need to ask for more money 
Thanks

The locality pay is included in the special rates table...note that the GS-09 step 10 base pay with locality is about $2,000 less than the special rate table - the table you see is what they pay. As for asking for more money...good luck with that...the government works strictly off the table you saw and hiring officals have only slight leeway in what they can offer.
