 Subpart F_Policies and Procedures for Emergency Travel of Employee Due 
                          to Illness or Injury
 
Sec. 301-70.506  How do we define actual cost and constructive cost when 

an employee interrupts a travel assignment because of an incapacitating 
illness or injury?

    (a) Actual cost of travel will be the transportation expenses 
incurred and en route per diem for the travel as actually performed from 
the point of interruption to the alternate location and from the 
alternate location to the TDY assignment. No per diem is allowed for 
time spent at the alternate location if confined to a medical facility.
    (b) Constructive cost is the sum of transportation expenses the 
employee would reasonably have incurred for round-trip travel between 
the official station and the alternate location plus per diem calculated 
for the appropriate en route travel time.
