BILLING CODE 6210–01–S 

GENERAL SERVICES 

ADMINISTRATION 

Maximum Per Diem Rates for the 

Continental United States (CONUS) 

AGENCY: Office of Governmentwide 

Policy (OGP), General Services 

Administration (GSA). 

ACTION: Notice of Per Diem Bulletin 11– 

01, Fiscal Year (FY) 2011 Continental 

United States (CONUS) per diem rates. 

SUMMARY: The General Services 

Administration’s (GSA) annual per diem 

review has resulted in lodging and meal 

allowance changes for locations within 

CONUS to provide for the 

reimbursement of Federal employees’ 

expenses covered by per diem. This Per 

Diem Bulletin updates the maximum 

per diem amounts in existing per diem 

localities and updates the standard 

CONUS rate. The CONUS per diem rates 

prescribed in Bulletin 11–01 may be 

found at http://www.gsa.gov/perdiem. 

GSA bases the lodging per diem rates on 

the average daily rate that the lodging 

industry reports to an independent 

organization. The use of such data in the 

per diem rate setting process enhances 

the government’s ability to obtain 

policy-compliant lodging where it is 

needed. In conjunction with the annual 

lodging study, GSA identified five new 

non-standard areas (NSAs): West Des 

Moines, Iowa (Dallas County); Queen 

Anne County, Maryland; Moab, Utah 

(Grand County); Richland, Washington 

(Benton County); and Berkeley County, 

West Virginia. 

If a per diem rate is insufficient to 

meet necessary expenses in any given 

location, Federal executive agencies can 

request that GSA review that location. 

Please review numbers five and six of 

GSA’s per diem Frequently Asked 

Questions at (http://www.gsa.gov/ 

perdiemfaqs) for more information on 

the special review process. 

In addition, the Federal Travel 

Regulation allows for actual expense 

reimbursement as directed in § 301– 

11.300 through 301–11.306. GSA may 

begin asking agencies for data related to 

their use of actual expense approvals; if 

so, more information will be 

forthcoming. 

DATES: This notice is effective October 

1, 2010, and applies for travel 

performed on or after October 1, 2010 

through September 30, 2011. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For 

clarification of content, contact Ms. Jill 

Denning, Office of Governmentwide 

Policy, Office of Travel, Transportation, 

and Asset Management, at (202) 208– 

7642, or by e-mail at 

travelpolicy@gsa.gov. Please cite Notice 

of Per Diem Bulletin 11–01. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Background 

After analyzing recent lodging data, 

GSA determined that lodging rates for 

certain localities do not adequately 

reflect the current lodging markets. GSA 

used the same lodging rate setting 

methodology for establishing the FY 

2011 per diem rates as when 

establishing the FY 2010 rates. 

GSA issues and publishes the CONUS 

per diem rates, formerly published in 

Appendix A to 41 CFR Chapter 301, 

solely on the Internet at http:// 

www.gsa.gov/perdiem. This process, 

implemented in 2003, ensures more 

timely changes in per diem rates 

established by GSA for Federal 

employees on official travel within 

CONUS. Notices published periodically 

in the Federal Register, such as this 

one, now constitute the only 

notification of revisions in CONUS per 

diem rates to agencies. 

Dated: August 23, 2010.

Assistant Deputy Associate Administrator.
