            DIGEST

            An FBI employee whose permanent duty station is in
            Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, was assigned temporary duty at
            the FBI Academy, Quantico, Virginia, to work on a highly
            sensitive investigation. While there, he was provided
            certain services such as lodging, meals and laundry
            privileges at Government cost. Since it is the
            responsibility of the Government agency involved to
            determine, in the first instance, the amount of reduced per
            diem allowance, if any, due the employee under these
            circumstances, we remand this claim to the agency for that
            determination.

            DECISION

            This decision is in response to a request from
            Mr. William E. Burrows, Jr., Authorized Certifying Officer,
            Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), United States
            Department of Justice (DOJ), as to whether Mr. David A.
            Seel, an FBI employee, may be paid a reduced per diem
            allowance for a period of temporary duty during an FBI
            Special Assignment at the FBI Academy, Quantico, Virginia.
            For the following reasons, we remand this claim to the FBI
            to determine the amount of reduced per diem allowance,
            if any, that may be paid to Mr. Seel.

            BACKGROUND

            The record shows that Mr. Seel, an FBI employee whose
            permanent duty station was in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania,
            was assigned to temporary duty at the FBI Academy, Quantico,
            Virginia, along with several other employees. The reason
            why the temporary duty was being conducted at this site was
            to maintain the integrity of a highly sensitive criminal
            investigation. Although it was originally anticipated that
            this special assignment would take approximately 30 days,
