OF THE UNITED STATES WASHINGTON, D.C. 20549 FILE: B-195602 DATE: March 10, 1980 MATTER OF: Howard E. Johnson DIGEST: Customs Service employee who is on temporary duty assignment (TDY) and receiving actual subsistence returned home for weekend. During time away from TDY, he did not incur costs for 3 nights' lodging and 2-1/3 days of meals. Under Federal Travel Regula- tions (FPMR 101-7) para. 1-8.4f (May 1973), employee may receive reim- bursement for travel up to actual subsistence expenses which would have been allowable at TDY site. Since employee's weekend round-trip travel expense was less than the average subsistence expenses at TDY site, employee may be reimbursed his travel expenses. Mr. L. R. Byrne, Director, Financial Management Division, United States Customs Service,-Miami, Florida, requests our decision whether he may certify for payment a voucher of $70 for travel expenses incurred by an employee who voluntarily returned to his official duty station from his temporary duty station for the weekend. Since the cost of the employee's trip was less than the subsistence expenses that would have been allowable had the employee remained at the temporary duty site, pay- ment may be authorized. From April 30, 1979, through May 11, 1979, the employee, Howard E. Johnson, was assigned to perform temporary duty (TDY) at Tampa, Florida, a high rate geographic area in which employees on TDY are author- ized actual subsistence not to exceed $42 a day.. Mr. Johnson reported to duty on April 30 and remained at the TDY station until 8:20 p.m. Friday, May 4, 1979, when he voluntarily returned to his home for the week- end. He returned to his TDY station on Monday morning May 7, 1979. Ca L G- tE US E75J )!1 2 442 L.-I L-11 k esT jjtj-0
