Comptroller General Decision
B-316381, Army--Mass Transit Benefits, Aberdeen Proving Ground, July 18, 2008
The Army established a policy implementing 5 U.S.C. sect. 7905, which
permits agency heads to reimburse federal employees, including members of
a uniformed service, for certain commuting expenses. The certifying
officer received a request for reimbursement, consistent with Army policy,
from an Army officer for expenses of taking a commuter rail train to his
place of employment. In accordance with this policy, the certifying
officer may certify payment for transit benefits for the eligible active
duty Army officer. The Army policy answers the certifying officer's
concerns about the wisdom of permitting benefits for short commuting
distances or easy travel conditions or when there is only one participant
in the program. In implementing 5 U.S.C. sect. 7905, current Army policy
provides that no installation outside the national capital region may
restrict the benefit to eligible service members and employees for
qualified means of transportation.
