Attention:   CC
Dear Sir

     Reference  is made to your letter of August 10, 1971, commenting
on  our letter of June 24, 1971, reporting the results of our audit of
military pay  records and travel, commercial, and military pay vouchers
submitted  by the accounting and finance office at K.I. Sawyer Air Force
Base, Michigan, for the period  October 1, 1969, through June 30, 1970.

     In your letter, you  concurred that attention'to those items of
error reported in our letter was necessary and  stated the corrective
action taken at base level.  You also requested  relief from the four
travel voucher per diem errors reported  in our letter on the basis of
late receipt of change 209 dated  June 1, 1970, to volume 1 of the Joint
Travel Regulations.

     We agree that delayed receipt of  changes can lead to the computa-
tion of payments under superseded regulations.  However, the  Accounting
and Finance Tech Digest dated May 1, 1970, discussed the  impending
change (No. 209) and further reported that an advance notice  (Joint
Determination No. 10-70 dated March 16, 1970)  of that change, to become
effective on June 1, 1970, was distributed on April 13, 1970.   There-
fore, since it appears advance notice of the change was timely distrib-
uted, we have not removed these errors from our record of audit.  We
have, however, noted our records to show that  collection action has
been taken.

     We appreciate the interest displayed in our report of audit.

                                 Siycerely yours,



                                 S. D. McElyea
