Sec. 302-7.4  Does the weight of any professional books, papers and equipment (PBP&E) count against the 18,000 pound HHG weight limitation?

    Yes, the weight on any PBP&E is generally part of and not in 
addition to the 18,000 pound HHG weight limitation. However, if the 
weight of any PBP&E causes the lot to exceed 18,000 pounds, the PBP&E 
may be transported to the new duty station as an administrative expense 
of the agency. Authorization for such shipment is granted solely at the 
discretion of the agency and subject to its policies governing such 
shipment.
