A-1.2 Reimbursement for Postal Service Supervisors

[Revise the first paragraph of A-1.2 to read as follows:]

Postal Service supervisors (see 5-5.2.1.2) will be reim­bursed at the rate of $6.00 per day or 50 cents per mile, whichever is greater, when a privately owned vehicle is used. Do not use the eTravel system when claiming the $6.00 daily rate, because the excess of the daily rate over the actual mileage is taxable as compensation to the claim­ant. You should claim the $6.00 daily rate by submitting PS Form 1164-A, Claim for Reimbursement for Postal Supervi­sors, to the Scanning and Imaging Center.
