 The Jlonorable Rogers C. B. Morton

 The Secretary of the Interlor

 Dear Hr. Secretary:

      We refer to the letter of the Chief, Division of. Fical Services,           ,
 Office of the Secretary, U.S. Department of the.Interior, dated April 20,
 1973, concerning the use and amount of homae leave'which nay be granted
 or credited to Hr. Laiirence D. Morderoian, an employee of the Bureau
 of Reclamation in Denver, Colorado, incident to his service with the
 Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands with duty at Saipan, Mariana
 Islanda, it view of the facts oet out below.

      Mr. Horderosian entered on duty in Saipan on ApriL 15, 1970. On
February 25, 1972, ha departed that station f*r return to the United
States as a result of his seperation by reduction in force (PIP). Upon
appeal of the RIF action to the Civil Service Comnissioza, the ceparation
was found to be invalid and reinstatement to t position in Saipan or en
equivalent position was ordered. Subsequently, Hr. Hurderosian was
offered and accepted the position he now holds in Denver in lieu of the
position in Saipan which the Co=nmission determined he should have been
offered At the tima of the RIP. The following questions are presented
with respect to Hr. Horderosian's accrual of tame leave and the grant of
home leave properly accrued:

      1. Since r. tIordorosian was not physically in his nforeign
          duty assignment on April 1972, through no fault of his
          own (erroneous PIF action), i9 he in .zt entitled to
          have leave accrual through:

          (a) April 1972 (completion of two-ycz%. agreement).

          (b) September 10, 1972 labt day on rolls of Trust
               Territory of the Pacific Islands before entering
               .on duty in Bureau of Reclamation, Denver, Colorado.

      2. If it is contempleted that the Department returns
          Mr. Horderosian to a fore.gn duty assignment in tho
          near future, can Hr. Horderosian use the home leave
     *    to which he would have been entitled in (al or (b)
         above?
                                                    PUBLISHED DECISIONq
