   MATTER  OF: Marie R. Streeter -- Claim ¶or per diem
              incident to erroneous transfer
  DIGESTEmployee,  who was transferred to new duty
         station, fil.ed a complaint alleging
         discrimination in the transfer. Appeals
         Review Board of Civil Service Commission
         ruled that the transfer was based on
         race and sex discrimination.  Agency
         retroactively restored employee to her
         old position. Cortective action did not
         change interim duty status from permanent
         to temporary, and employee may not be paid
         per diem while stationed at new duty
         station for 3 years. However, employee is
         entitled to relocation expenses incident
         to two transfers.

     This decision is in response to the request for an
advance'decision from Robert Caswell, an authorized
certifying officer of the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA)f
U.S. Department of the Interior, concerning the claim of
Ms. Marie R. Streeter, a BIA employee, for per diem
incident to her impxoper transfer to a new duty station.

     Thw record indfcates that effictive August 19, 1973,
Ms. Streeter was transferred from her position as
Employment Assistance Officer at San Jose, California,
to the position of Tsaining Center Coordinator at Maderar
California. Ms. Streeter filed a dicrimination complaint
alleqing that she had been reassigned in advance of a
reduction in force so as to permit the appointment of
another employee to her position. The Appeals Review Board
of the Civil Service Commission, in its decision dated
March 16, 1976, held that the allegations of discrimination
based on sex and race were supported by the evidence
presented, and the Board found that but for the
discrimination Ms. Streeter would have been assigned to
the position of Employment Assistance Officer. The agency,
in complying with the Board's decision, retroactively
appointed Ms. Streeter in April, 1976, to the position
of Employment Assistance Officer and retroactively
changed her permanent duty station to Alameda, California.
