As a result, the pay grades I am proposing today are lower in several cases from those which I had originally planned. Secondly, we compared propc Orange County CETA salaries to those of CETA programs in other parts of the State with which I am familiar. As I have previously indicated to you, the pay grades I am proposing; today are equal to or less than comparable pay grades in these other programs. - competition for skilled employees.
