handle is hein.gao/gaobadles0001 and id is 1 raw text is: OFECIION FILE: B-208155 THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL 0-11 THE UNITE3 8TATES WASHINGTON. 0. C. 20548 DATE: July 12, 1983 MATTER OF: Charles L. Steinkamp - Relocation Expenses DIGEST: The claimant transferred from a position in the Office of the Architect of the Capitol to one in the Department of Energy as a manpower shortage category ap- pointee. There was no transfer between agencies for the purposes of 5 U.S.C. S 5724a because the Office of the Architect of the Capitol is not included within the definition of agency under 5 U.S.C. S 5721. Therefore, the claimant is limited to recovering the expenses allowed under 5 U.S.C. § 5723 for manpower shortage positions, and he is not entitled to the additional relocation expenses allowable under 5 U.S.C. S 5724a. The issue in this case is whether Mr. Charles L. Steinkamp, a reinstated career Government employee of the Department of Energy (DOE), is entitled to be reimbursed for relocation expenses, under 5 U.S.C. S 5724a (1976), after transferring to the DOE in Harahan, Louisiana, as a manpower shortage category employee, from a position with the Office of the Architect of the Capitol in Washington, D.C. Because the Office of the Architect of the Captiol is not an agency within the meaning of 5 U.S.C. S 5721 (1976), we hold that Mr. Steinkamp is not entitled to relocation expenses under 5 U.S.C. S 5724a, but is limited to those expenses already allowed under 5 U.S.C. S 5723 (1976).
