Nonconventional Lodging
AGENCY: Office of Government-wide Policy (OGP), General Services
Administration (GSA).
ACTION: Notice of Federal Travel Regulation (FTR) Bulletin 19-04,
Reimbursement of fees for conventional and nonconventional lodging.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Per the Federal Travel Regulation (FTR), agencies may
reimburse employees for the use of nonconventional lodging ``when there
are no conventional lodging facilities in the area (e.g., in remote
areas) or when conventional facilities are in short supply.'' As the
use of nonconventional lodging amongst Federal travelers has grown, so
have questions about the associated fees agencies may reimburse. FTR
Bulletin 19-04 clarifies what fees agencies may reimburse when
employees use either conventional or nonconventional lodging while on
official temporary duty (TDY) travel. This Bulletin is located at
www.gsa.gov/ftr under the ``FTR & Related Files'' tab.
