STRL Personnel Demonstration Project Probationary and Trial Period Waiver Amendments

The Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering issued a notice amending Science and Technology Reinvention Laboratory (STRL) Personnel Demonstration Project Federal Register Notices by updating waiver citations for probationary and trial periods. The amendments reflect changes resulting from Executive Order 14284, which repealed Civil Service Rule 2.4 and established Civil Service Rule 11. The 24 designated STRLs across the Air Force, Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Defense Health Agency are affected. Implementation begins no earlier than April 21, 2026.
