Fox--Claim for travel expenses to DIGEST: and from work. 1. Where employee's job is relocated from Washington, D.C., to Hyattsville, Mary- land, employee may not be reimbursed transportation costs of commuting to new job location since costs incurred in commuting between residence and permanent duty station are to be borne by employee. 2. Location of employee's official station is question of fact, and it has been held that employee's official duty station is place at which he performs major part of duties and is expected to spend greater part of time. This action is a reconsideration of the denial on May 13, 1974, by the Transportation and Claims Division of our Office, of the claim of Mr. James H. Fox for round trip mileage and parking fees for travel between his residence and duty station as an employee of the Department of the Navy. Mr. Fox's claim was dis- allowed on the ground that his'assignment to Hyattsville, Maryland, was of a permanent nature and that employees must bear the cost of transportation from place of residence to official duty station. NAVSHIPS Notice 5430, dated November 7, 1968, advised all Deputy Commanders of the Naval Ship Systems Command about the relocation of the Naval Ship Engineering Center (NAVSEC), and certain support elements, including Mr. Fox's organizational element, from the Main Navy Building, Washington, D.C., to the Center Building, Prince George's Center, Hyattsville, Maryland. The notice also advised thats (2) b. Those personnel identified for relocation with NAVSEC will be notified of change of duty station; there will be no change for any personnel in type of appointment, position, grade, or salary.
