Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit

1Opinion of the Court

SCHALL, Circuit Judge.

Denise M. Wassenaar petitions for review of the October 23, 1992 final decision of the Merit Systems Protection Board (Board) in Docket No. DC0831910664I1. In its decision, the Board sustained the reconsideration decision of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) denying petitioner’s request for computation of her survivor annuity at a higher rate. Because OPM’s decision was based on an unreasonable interpretation of the statutes governing survivor annuities, we reverse and remand for recalculation of petitioner’s survivor annuity at the higher rate.
