§ 1506.204 - OFI's reimbursement of project sponsors for logistical support.

(a) Because of the limited travel, lodging, medical, and office facilities along the route of the project in Alaska, employees in the field will be relying upon the logistical support of the project sponsor. Normally, all logistical support provided by the proj-ect sponsor will be provided in accordance with the “logistics support agreement” between the sponsor and the OFI. Under the terms of this agreement, OFI will reimburse the sponsor for this support.

(b) If it is necessary for an employee to rely upon logistic support of the sponsor or other person which is not within the scope of the “logistics support agreement,” the employee shall notify the ethics officer or the Federal Inspector as soon as practicable.

(c) The employee may accept the logistics support which is beyond the scope of the “logistics support agreement” only if the Federal Inspector determines that such acceptance facilitates the conduct of official business and is in the best interest of the Government.
