41 CFR Chapter 301

[FTR Amendment 68]

RIN 3090–AG43

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 updated to

provide for the reimbursement of

Federal employees’ expenses covered by

per diem. This final rule increases/

decreases the maximum lodging

amounts in certain existing per diem

localities, adds new per diem localities,

deletes a number of previously

designated per diem localities, and adds

information to encourage employees to

stay in a fire-safe approved

accommodation. The meals and

incidental expenses (M&IE) amounts

remain the same.

DATES: This final rule is effective on

January 1, 1998, and applies for travel

performed on or after January 1, 1998.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Joddy P. Garner, Office of

Governmentwide Policy (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.

List of Subjects in 41 CFR Chapter 301

Government employees, Travel and

transportation expenses.

For the reasons set out in the

preamble 41 CFR chapter 301 is revised

to read as follows:

PART 301–7—PER DIEM

ALLOWANCES

1. The authority citation for Part 301–

7 continues to read as follows:

Authority: 5 U.S.C. 5701–5709.

2. Appendix A to chapter 301 is

revised to read as follows:

APPENDIX A TO CHAPTER 301—PRESCRIBED MAXIMUM PER DIEM RATES FOR CONUS

The maximum rates listed below are prescribed under § 301–7.3(a) of this chapter for reimbursement of per diem

expenses incurred during official travel within CONUS (the continental United States). The amount shown in column

(a) is the maximum that will be reimbursed for lodging expenses including applicable taxes. The M&IE rate shown

in column (b) is a fixed amount allowed for meals and incidental expenses covered by per diem. The per diem payment

calculated in accordance with part 301–7 of this chapter for lodging expenses plus the M&IE rate may not exceed

the maximum per diem rate shown in column (c). Seasonal rates apply during the periods indicated.

It is the policy of the Government, as reflected in the Hotel Motel Fire Safety Act of 1990 (Pub. L. No. 101–

391, September 25, 1990), referred to as ‘‘the Act’’ in this paragraph, to save lives and protect property by promoting

fire safety in hotels, motels, and all places of public accommodation affecting commerce. In furtherance of the Act’s

goals, employees are encouraged to stay in a facility which is fire-safe, i.e., an approved accommodation, when commercial

lodging is required. Lodgings that have met the Government requirements are listed on the U. S. Fire Administration’s

Internet site at http://www.usfa.fema.gov/hotel/index.htm.

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.’’ 2Per 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.’’ 3When a military installation or Government-related facility (whether or not specifically named) is located partially within more than one city or

county boundary, the applicable per diem rate for the entire installation or facility is the higher of the two rates which apply to the cities and/or

counties, even though part(s) of such activities may be located outside the defined per diem locality. 4Federal 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. 5The standard CONUS rate of $80 ($50 for lodging and $30 for M&IE) applies to all per diem localities in the State of North Dakota.

Dated: November 26, 1997.
