§ 302-9.100 Requirements and limitations on transportation of a POV to a post of duty.

(a) Employees may only transport one POV to a post of duty. However, this does not limit the transportation of a replacement POV when authorized under § 302-9.171. The POV must be shipped to the actual post of duty. (b) If there is no port or terminal at the point of origin and/or destination, the agency will pay the entire cost of transporting the POV from the point of origin to the destination. If preferred, however, the employee may choose to drive the POV from the point of origin at time of assignment to the nearest embarkation port or terminal, and/or from the debarkation port or terminal nearest the destination to the post of duty at any time. If driving is chosen, reimbursement will be the one-way mileage cost, at the rate specified in part 302-4 of this chapter, for driving the POV from the authorized origin to deliver it to the port of embarkation, or from the port of debarkation to the authorized destination. For the segment of travel from the port of embarkation back to the authorized origin after delivering the POV to the port or from the authorized destination to the port of debarkation to pick up the POV, reimbursement will be the one-way transportation cost. The total cost of round-trip travel, to deliver the POV to the port at the origin or to pick up the POV at the port at destination, may not exceed the cost of transporting the POV to or from the port involved. Reimbursement for a per diem allowance for round-trip travel to and from the port involved is not authorized.
