DIGEST;
       Employee of the Department of Interior
       requests reimbu,sernent of temporary quar-
       ters subsistence expenses incurred in
       connection with hiaP occunancy of lodgings
       furnished by a coworker.   Although the
       employee claims that the lodgings were not
       furnished on the basis of a friendship
       between the two, applicability of the rules
       for reimbursement for temporary quarters
       does not depend upon the relationship
       between the employee and the person supply-
       ing the lodgings. When the lodgings are
       provided In a personal residence by a host
       who does not have a history or make a
       practice of renting out accommodations in
       his private home, the employee's claim
       should be supported by information indi-
       cating that the lodging charges reflect
       expenses incurred by the host1

     This action is in response to a request for an advance
decision from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and
Wildlife Service, regarding the claim of Jerome R. Serie for
temporary quarters subsistence expenses in conjunction with
his change oi permanent duty station.l/ Upon transferring
to a new duty station, Mr. Serie entered into an agreement
under which he was provided temporary lodgings and meals in
the home of a fellow employee.
