Travel Benefits for CSRS Participants

Subj: Administrative Adoption of Statutory Benefits
1. This memorandum is for your information.
2. By separate memorandum dated 29 June 1970, I am recommending
you administratively adopt for CSRS participants the identical authority now
applying to CIARDS participants respecting death and retirement travel,
effective 30 June 1970. In discussing this matter with you on 25 June 1970, I
mentioned that we have a sizeable number of people retiring this June under
the CSRS. It would be proper and equitable for those among that group who
plan to move upon retirement to a new location, as well as for future retirees
under the CSRS, for the Agency to help defray the cost of shipping their house-
hold effects and transporting their families to the new point. As with retirees
under the CIARDS, we would authorize payment of expenses to a point within
the United States, its possessions or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.
3. We have examined our, records of mandatory retirements and
estimated the potential retirees (voluntary, discontinued service, disability,
and death) under the CSRS with the following results:
June 1970
45
July 1970
65
August 1970 - June 1971

Total
360

from June 1970 through June 1971 would be as follows:
No. CSRS retirees who will make domestic move 90
Average cost per move
$ 1,500.00
Total estimated cost
