From what I know, you would get the base plus locality. COLA is for Alaska and Hawaii where they do not get locality. The difference is that locality pay counts toward your pention but COLA does not. Again, this is how I understand it. I just got a tentative offer for Hawaii and it included COLA of 25% but no locality.
