SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00036
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
A. Purpose
FAR 31.205–46, Travel Costs, requires
that, except in extraordinary and
temporary situations, costs incurred by
a contractor for lodging, meals, and
incidental expenses shall be considered
to be reasonable and allowable only to
the extent that they do not exceed on a
daily basis the per diem rates in effect
as of the time of travel. These
requirements are set forth in the Federal
Travel Regulations for travel in the
conterminous 48 United States, the Joint
Travel Regulations, Volume 2,
Appendix A, for travel in Alaska,
Hawaii, the Commonwealth of Puerto
Rico, and territories and possessions of
the United States, and the Department
of State Standardized Regulations,
section 925, ‘‘Maximum Travel Per
Diem Allowances for Foreign Areas.’’
The burden generated by this coverage
is in the form of the contractor
preparing a justification whenever a
higher actual expense reimbursement
method is used.
B. Discussion and Analysis
Two respondents submitted public
comments on the extension of the
previously approved information
collection. The analysis of the public
comments is summarized as follows:
Comment: One respondent stated that
per diem reimbursement is reasonable
so long as the per diem limits match the
actual costs of travel and saves
considerable administrative costs. The
other respondent stated that the
collection was both necessary and
useful, but suggested that the
Government explore the use of the
Defense Travel System or a similar
system to control travel costs.
Response: The comments are
acknowledged, but do not address the
estimated burden associated with this
information collection requirement. The
total estimated annual reporting burden
remains the same as previously
approved.
C. Annual Reporting Burden
Respondents: 5,800.
Responses per Respondent: 10.
Total Responses: 58,000.
Hours per Response: .25.
Total Burden Hours: 14,500.
Obtaining Copies of Proposals:
Requesters may obtain a copy of the
information collection documents from
