Jones - Excess temporary storage charges DIGEST: An employee received a permanent change of station transfer from Washington, D.C., to Fort Sam Houston, Texas. As a condition of employment, he was required to perform temporary duty overseas for approximately 120 days en route to Fort Sam Houston. Because of overseas assignment he found it necessary to store his household goods in excess of 60 days and seeks reimbursement on basis that he was entitled to non- temporary storage. Nontemporary storage ror overseas assignments only applies when the assignment is for permanent duty. Where such assignment is not overseas nor to an isolated United States location, storage rights are governed by FTR para. 2'8.2c, which limits storage reimbursement to 60 days. This decision is in response to a request from the Comptroller, Defense Mapping Agency, on the question as to whether one of their employees is entitled to be reimbursed for the cost of storage of his household goods in excess of 60 days, while performing temporary duty incident to a permanent duty station transfer. Reimbursement is denied since there is no authority for payment of storage beyond 60 days. BACKGROUND Mr. Angus C. Jones transferred to the Inter American Geodetic Survey (IAGS) from another branch of the Defense Mapping Agency, effective June 8, 1980. As a result, he received a permanent change of station transfer from Washington, D.C., to Fort Sam Houston, Texas. At that time, IAGS headquarters was located at Fort Clayton, Panama, but was in the process ot being relocated'to Fort Sam Houston. That relocation change was not formally established until August 1, 1980.
