				  approval of the Division of the Budget, which sets charges for these meals.
				  Facilities that serve the largest meal of the day over the noon hour charge
				  employees for that meal at dinner rates. Such facilities charge the lunch rate
				  for the evening meal.

				adjustments.
(i) For employees on rotating
				tours of duty. Nonresident employees taking one or two meals each tour of duty
				and whose tours of duty rotate through the three meals, and employees who are
				subject to periodic shifts of tours of duty are charged at average monthly meal
				rates: $42.30 effective September 26, 1985; $49.70 effective April 1, 1986;
				$58.40 effective April 1, 1987 if such employee takes one meal each day; and

				effective April 1, 1987 if they take two meals each day.
(ii) For official absences from duty. An
				employee, resident or nonresident, absent from all meals for a period of seven
				or more consecutive days during vacation, holidays, accumulated pass days and
				other protracted absence from duty such as sick leave, is not charged for meals
				during that period of official absence. Arrangements for this allowance must be
				made in advance of absence. Sick leave and absence without pay may not be
				combined to produce seven or more days for this allowance, either with each
				other, or with vacations, holidays and personal leave days. Exceptions to this
				provision are made only with the approval of the head of the
				facility.
(iii) For nonofficial
				guests. Charges for meals from facility dining rooms furnished to nonofficial
				guests (adults or children) visiting individual officers or employees, with the
				approval of the head of the institution, are charged at the following rates:
