OF THE UNITED STATES SW A S H I N G T 0 N 0 .C. 2 0 5 4 8 (,'N I T / 7/1C FILE: B-199388 DATE: February 26, 1981 MATTER OF: Earle B. Amey --41aim for Tempo ary Quarters Subsistence Expenses DIGEST: Employee, who transferred to new duty station, occupied temporary quarters and was joined by his family during second 10-day period of temporary quarters at new station. He claims reimbursement for them based upon higher rate applicable during first 10-day period. Claim is denied since regulations governing temporary quar- ters provide for reimbursement based on 10-day periods beginning when either employee or a family member first occupies temporary quarters, irre- spective of when other family members begin to occupy temporary quarters. The issue in this case is whether, incident to a transfer, an employee who preceded his family may claim reimbursement for his family for temporary quarters subsistence expenses at the rate for the first 10-day period when the family begins occupying temporary quarters during the second 10-day period of his occupancy. We hold that the employee is limited to the rate applicable for each 10-day period of temporary quarters occupancy, irrespective of when his family members begin occupying temporary quarters. Mr. Lorin D. Anderson, Chief, Branch of Finance, Bureau of Mines, U.S. Department of the Interior, has requested our decision concerning the claim of Mr. Earle B. Amey, an employee of the Bureau of Mines, for additional reimbursement for temporary quarters subsistence expenses in connection with his transfer from Boulder City, Nevada, to Washington, D.C. Mr. Amey preceded his family to the riew duty station and he was reimbursed for 10 days of temporary quarters subsistence expenses at the rate applicable
