 MATTER OF:Robert W. Arndorfer - Travel and Subsistence
               Expenses at Location Subsequently Made
               Permanent Duty Station
 DIGEST:


     This Office is presented with a request to
     determine whether an employee who performed
     temporary duty at his newly designated
     permanent duty station between the time he
     was notified of his transfer and the effec-

     reimbursement of per diem and travel expen-

transfer. We are remanding this case to the BLM so that
it can make a determination of Mr. Arndorfer's entitle-

governing this type of situation.

     On June 8, 1983, while in Anchorage, Alaska, on tem-
porary duty, Mr. Arndorfer was notified of his reassign-
ment from a position with the BLM in Denver, Colorado, to
the position of Deputy State Director in Anchorage.
Mr. Arndorfer states that at that time he discussed his

his son's wedding, they agreed that he would report on
September 6. Apparently, the State Director then
