Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit

1Opinion of the Court
WALD, Circuit Judge:
This case is about the legality of a “pay cap” on the salaries of high ranking civilian mariners employed by the United States government. The statutory question is whether 5 U.S.C. § 5373, 1 which limits the basic rate of pay “fix[ed] by [executive branch] administrative action” to the maximum rate for grade GS-18, applies to 5 U.S.C. § 5348, 2 which requires the govern ment to fix the pay of its civilian mariners “as nearly as is consistent with the public interest in accordance with prevailing rates and practices in the maritime industry.”
