Highlights
The National Park Service requested a decision concerning whether an employee was entitled to reimbursement for subsistence expenses at his permanent duty station, since his duties were necessary law enforcement services to protect life and federal property. GAO held that the employee was not entitled to reimbursement for the subsistence expenses, since: (1) he was at his permanent duty station; and (2) there was no emergency situation requiring the protection of life or federal property. Accordingly, the claim was denied.
