SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Background
In April 2002, the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB)
requested thatall Executive Branch
agencies take a closer look at their fleet
managementoperations, particularly the
size of their fleets. In coordination
withOMB, information was collected
from the agencies using a survey
developedby the Federal Fleet Policy
Council (FEDFLEET) and GSA’s Vehicle
ManagementPolicy Division. The results
of the survey indicated a number
ofdeficiencies in the fleet management
operations of the agencies.
Aninteragency working group of
FEDFLEET members recommended
correctiveactions, including the
establishment, within each agency, of a
documentedstructured vehicle
allocation methodology to identify the
optimalallocation of the agency vehicles
in terms of number and configuration
ofthose vehicles. The need for such a
methodology was further validated in
aMay 2004 Government Accountability
Office report on the acquisition
andmanagement of Federal motor
vehicles.
The guidance provided in FMR
Bulletin B–9 includes a descriptionof
the methodology and resultant optimal
vehicle allocation, an example ofthe
methodology both in narrative and in
standardized format, how
themethodology and resultant optimal
vehicle allocation should be
recorded,the sources for development of
the methodology and resultant
optimalvehicle allocation, what actions
Federal executive agencies should take

Bulletin FTR 05–06. This Bulletin
informs agencies that certain provisions
of the FTR governing the authorization
of actual subsistence expenses for
official travel (both TDY and relocation)
are temporarily waived as a result of
Hurricane Katrina, because it is
expected that finding lodging facilities
and/or adequate meals may be difficult,
and distances involved may be great
resulting in increased costs for per diem
expenses. GSA Bulletin FTR 05–06 may
be found at www.gsa.gov/bulletins.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Background
As a result of the catastrophic
destruction caused by Hurricane
Katrina, agencies should consider
delaying all non-essential TDY and
relocation to the affected locations for a
period of 90 days. This is especially
important with relocation travel because
the 120-day maximum for TQSE cannot
be extended due to statutory
restrictions. While in the past, GSA has
limited application of such waivers to
Presidentially Declared Disaster Areas,
in the case of Hurricane Katrina, the
widespread devastation coupled with
the extensive evacuation of urban areas
means that we cannot effectively
