Funk - Excess Period of Temporary Storage Matter of: of Household Goods File: B-227488 Date: December 29, 1987 DIGEST An employee, who was transferred and immediately thereafter sent for long-term training at a location distant from his new permanent duty station, was authorized temporary storage of his household goods not to exceed 180 days. He alleges that an agency official misinformed him that the government would pay for storage of the household goods the entire time he was away for training. The employee's request that we waive the time limitation so as to permit reimbursement for his costs for the additional 6-month period based on extenuating circumstances is denied. Regardless of the circumstances, the period for which reimbursement of storage cost may be made is limited to the maximum period authorized in the regulations, and our Office is without authority to disregard those provisions or waive the time limitation imposed therein. DECISION This decision is in response to a letter from Mr. David C. Funk requesting reconsideration of our Claims Group settlement Z-2864105 dated March 9, 1987, which disallowed his claim for temporary storage of his household goods at government expense for a period in excess of 180 days. We sustain that disallowance for the following reasons.

Incident to that transfer, he was authorized temporary storage of household goods and personal effects not to exceed 90 days. Several days after reporting for duty at Norton Air Force Base, Mr. Funk was sent to Maxwell Air Force Base to attend the Air War College for long-term training during the period
