# POST CLASSIFICATION AND PAYMENT TABLES SECTION 920

**FOOTNOTES TO SECTION 920**

(Explanations on how to use the post classification and payment tables
are included in Section 920 of these regulations)

[a]{.underline} -- effective September 2, 2007

[b]{.underline} -- effective September 16, 2007

[c]{.underline} -- Changes were effective on both of the above dates.
The allowance or other revision printed in this Section 920 was
effective September 16, 2007. The changes effective September 2, 2007
are listed at the end of these footnotes.

[d]{.underline} - No current cost information is available as all U.S.
Government employees are in Government owned or leased housing. Any USG
organization with

employees eligible for the LQA should submit housing cost information to
the Department of State as required by Section 072 and 077 of these
regulations.

Until more suitable housing cost information can be used to establish
LQA rates for the locality, effective 11/26/06 the following LQA rates
are authorized:

  ------------------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ---------
  LQA GROUPS                            2            3            4

                           WF           16000        14500        13100

                           WOF          15300        13100        11600
  ------------------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ---------

[e]{.underline} -The LQA rates are established for the benefit of only a
few or no current employees and therefore do not necessarily represent
overall local quarter

costs. (See Sections 072 and 077 for information on the reporting of
housing cost data.)

[g]{.underline} - The following are within the Tokyo-To (Kanagawa-Ken)
area: Atsugi, Camp Zama, Fussa, Machida-Shi, Sagamihara, Tachikawa and
Yokota AB.

[m]{.underline} - Not in use effective 12/10/06.

[n]{.underline} - An employee who serves for a period of 42 consecutive
calendar days or more on detail (Section 511c) in **Afghanistan
(effective 12/16/01) or Iraq (effective**

**3/23/03),** may be granted the post differential at the prescribed
rate for the number of days served, beginning with the first day of
detail.

[p]{.underline} - In addition to the listed post differential rate,
employees are eligible for danger pay allowance, DSSR (652f), as shown
below:
