(FROM THE ARTICLE: This column is about the remarkable accomplishments of federal senior executives, the highest-ranking members of the government’s civil service. The Senior Executives Association (SEA) honored the 2016 and 2017 Presidential Rank Award winners Thursday. These awards are serious business. The two categories of winners, distinguished and meritorious, get more than a certificate from Staples. Federal law provides meritorious winners a monetary prize equal to 20 percent of salary, while distinguished winners receive 35 percent. Senior executive annual pay ranges from $124,406 to $187,000. Nominees go through a rigorous review process by government officials. The result is only 1 percent of career senior-level staffers are selected in the distinguished category. Up to 5 percent are recognized for the meritorious award.)
