MATTER Or:

DIGEST:


    4r. James P. Moore

tederal employee, transferred to new
duty station on July 6, 1980, who
obtained a 1-year extension of 9eriod
to sell former residence and purobase
new residence under section 2-6,le,
Federal Travel Regulations (restated
in parajraph C14000-2 of Volume 2,
Joint Travel Regulations), may not be
granted an additional extension of
time limitition beyond maximum 2-year
period established by regulation,
Limitation mAy not be waived or modi-

in selling for-er residence may be due
to housing market.

in July 1980.

     Mr. Moore wai employed by the Corps of Engineers,
with his duty station located in Tioga, Pennsylvania.

     In May 1900, incident to the transfer, he put his home
in Iawrenceville, Pennsylvania, up for sale. The Finance
and Accounting Officer confirms Mr. Moore's vlaim that his
inability to sell his home is due to the severely depressed
real estate market in that area, coupled with high interest
rates. Although it appears that he secured a 1-year exten-
sion of time to complete the sale, that extension expires
on July 6, 1982.

     It is pointed out in the submission that Mr. Moore's
purchase of a home in the Washington area is depenient
on the sale of his old home, and that if he is forced
