Federal Travel Regulation; Maximum Per Diem Rates

GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION

41 CFR Ch. 301

[FTR Amendment 52]

RIN 3090-AF98

Federal Travel Regulation; Maximum Per Diem Rates

AGENCY: Office of Governmentwide Policy, GSA.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: An analysis of lodging and meal cost survey data reveals that

the listing of maximum per diem rates for locations within the

continental United States (CONUS) should be undated to provide for the

reimbursement of Federal employees' expenses covered by per diem. This

final rule increases the standard CONUS maximum per diem rate from $66

to $80, which represents a $10 increase in the maximum lodging amount,

and a $4 increase in the meals and incidental expenses (M&IE) rate.

This rule also increases/decreases the maximum lodging and M&IE amounts

in certain existing per diem localities; removes the $26 M&IE rate.

This rule also adds one additional M&IE rate of $42 for certain per

diem localities; and adds new per diem localities, deletes a number of

previously designated per diem localities because of the increased

lodging amount in the standard CONUS rate, and changes the table in

Sec. 301-7.12(a)(2)(i) to reflect the additional M&IE rate of $42 for

use when making deductions from meals furnished an employee without

charge or at a nominal cost by the Federal Government.

DATES: This final rule is effective on January 1, 1997, and applies for

travel performed on or after January 1, 1997.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Joddy P. Garner, Travel and Transportation Management Policy Division

(MTT), Washington, DC 20405, telephone 202-501-1538.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The General Services Administration has

determined that this rule is not a significant regulatory action for

the purposes of Executive Order 12866 of September 30, 1993. This final

rule is not required to be published in the Federal Register for notice

and comment. Therefore, the Regulatory Flexibility Act does not apply.

This rule also is exempt from congressional review prescribed under 5

U.S.C. 801 since it relates solely to agency management and personnel.

* Denotes independent cities.

\1\ Unless otherwise specified, the per diem locality is defined as ``all locations within, or entirely

surrounded by, the corporate limits of the key city, including independent entities located within those

boundaries.''

\2\ Per diem localities with county definitions shall include ``all locations within, or entirely surrounded by,

the corporate limits of the key city as well as the boundaries of the listed counties, including independent

entities located within the boundaries of the key city and the listed counties.''

\3\ Military installations or Government-related facilities (whether or not specifically named) that are located

partially within the city or county boundary shall include ``all locations that are geographically part of the

military installation or Government-related facility, even though part(s) of such activities may be located

outside the defined per diem locality.

[[Page 59198]]

\4\ Federal agencies may submit a request to GSA for review of the costs covered by per diem in a particular

city or area where the standard CONUS rate applies when travel to that location is repetitive or on a

continuing basis and travelers' experiences indicate that the prescribed rate is inadequate. Other per diem

localities listed in this appendix will be reviewed on an annual basis by GSA to determine whether rates are

adequate. Requests for per diem rate adjustments shall be submitted by the agency headquarters office to the

General Services Administration, Office of Governmentwide Policy, Attn: Travel and Transportation Management

Policy Division (MTT), Washington, DC 20405. Agencies should designate an individual responsible for

reviewing, coordinating, and submitting to GSA any requests from bureaus or subagencies. Requests for rate

adjustments shall include a city designation, a description of the surrounding location involved (county or

other defined area), and a recommended rate supported by a statement explaining the circumstances that cause

the existing rate to be inadequate. The request also must contain an estimate of the annual number of trips to

the location, the average duration of such trips, and the primary purpose of travel to the locations. Agencies

should submit their requests to GSA no later than May 1 in order for a city to be included in the annual

review.

Dated: November 15, 1996.

Thurman M. Davis, Sr.,

Acting Administrator of General Services.
