GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION
Temporary Duty and Relocation Travel of Employees to Areas
Impacted by the Wildfires in California
AGENCY: Office of Governmentwide Policy, General Services
Administration (GSA).
ACTION: Notice of Federal Travel Regulation (FTR) Bulletin 08-02.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The General Services Administration (GSA) has issued FTR
Bulletin 08-02. FTR Bulletin 08-02 informs agencies that certain
provisions of the FTR governing the authorization of actual subsistence
expenses for official travel (both TDY and relocation) are temporarily
waived as a result of the Emergency Declaration signed by the President
on October 23, 2007, in response to wildfires in parts of California.
It is expected that finding lodging facilities and/or adequate meals in
the affected areas may be difficult, and distances involved may be
great resulting in increased costs for per diem expenses. FTR Bulletin
08-02 became effective on October 24, 2007 and will remain effective
until January 24, 2008, unless extended or rescinded by GSA. This
bulletin and all FTR bulletins are located at gsa.gov/bulletin.
