C.VROU34O0 I hA it FILE: 8-191939 DATIE: October '25, 1978 MATTER OF: Mr. Edward J. Fox - Valet Service Pee Dl~c=sT: A - An employee may be reimbursed a valet service fee which he incurred in order to obtain the lowest cost parking at air terminal incident co official travel as it is considered an integra) part of the parking fee cost reimbursable by thi Govern- Ment in accordance with FTH 1-4.2c(3). This decisian responds to a- reqtuest for an advance decision from the Chief of FinanCe aid- Accdhting, National Security Agency, Central Security Service, concerning reimbursement to.Hr. Edward J. Fox of a valet service .'ee paid for parking.I privately owned vhicle at a common carrier terminal incident to temporary duty travel by,zirplane. The request was submitted oy the Per Diem, Travel and Transportation Allowance Committee, PDTATAC Control No. 78-21. Mr. Fox incurred a valet service fee or $1.75 on March 27, 1976, for parking his priyately owned motor vehicle 4 days at the Baltimore-Washington Iturnational Airportlong-ter'm phrking,1ot while he ttaveled on official business. On the long-term lot parking is by valet service with the park- ing charge itemized separately frxi the valet service, fee, which is to compensate for pa'rking the ',aveler! s Vnicle and driving the traveler to and trom th' terminal building and the lot. When the valet service ree is added to the ldng-term park...Ag lot charge and parking is 4 days or more, such an in Mr. Fox's case, the total costis less than parking for the same period in thelots designated for either daily or hourly parking rates. Parking in the long-term lot is not permitted without the valet service and fee. Paragraph.1-4.2c(3) of the Federal Trivel Regulations (FMR 1017, Hay 1973)(FTR) authorizes a fee for Parkl Ia privately owned at'tornobile at a common cartier terminal or other park1ng area wbiie the traver is a,iy fron hi, official station. We.believe the valet service and ee at the long-tern lot at Baltimore-Vlashington Uiternational Airport is intd- grally related to parking contemplated by Eis regulation, since they are necessary to obtain the l6west cost parking at a saving;s to the Government. Therefore the employee may be reimbtirsed the cost of the valet 'iervice as An ntegral part of the parking fee subject to the limitation prescribed in para. 1-4.2c(3) of the FTR.
