CRITERIA TO BE FOLLOWED IN CONNECTION
- WITH ACTIVITIES CONCERNING HEALTH-EFFECTS ISSUES i
l 1. The Panel meetings are intended to provide a means for facilitating the communication of plans and results of studies / reviews deriving from Federal, State, and TMI Public Health Fund efforts regarding the TMI-2 accident.
To the extent that government funded generic studies such ,
i as those sponsored by the NIH on effects of low-level i
radiation may be helpful to the public in reviewing the TMI experience, such presentations would not be excluded.
- 2. The Panel will not serve either as a referee or as an q independent technical reviewer of such studies or in general health effects issues such as standards for ra-
! diation health and safety protection.
- i. 3. Panel priority will continue to be the TMI-2 clean-up i
i program. The health-effects issue will not dominate the agenda of topics to be addressed.

ENCLOSURE 4 TRAVEL REIMBURSEMENT PROCEDURES Diem Travel, and Actual Expense Travel. Additionally, Panel members may make claims by a special procedure allowing direct reimbursement for incidental espenses (xeroxing, postage. typing phone calls) related to Panel business as well as dinner on the evenings of Panel Meetings they attend.
LOCAL TRAVEL Local Travel is travel within a 35-mile radius from the traveler's point of departure (office, home, etc.). This is a straight line radius as opposed to odometer readings.
Allowable Reimbursement: Only mileage ($ .203: mile), tolls and parking fees.
No meals or hotels.
j PER DIEM TRAVEL
! This is travel which is not " Local" (i.e., it is greater than 35 miles, I'
straight line, from the departure point). There are three cases of Per Dien Travel.
Case 1: Time spent on official travel (departure / return to origin) is 10 hours1.157407e-4 days <br />0.00278 hours <br />1.653439e-5 weeks <br />3.805e-6 months <br /> or less. (See Case 3 for exception.)
I Allowable Reimbursement: Only mileage, tolls and parking fees.
1 Case 2: Time spent on travel exceeds 10 hours1.157407e-4 days <br />0.00278 hours <br />1.653439e-5 weeks <br />3.805e-6 months <br />.
Allowable Reimbursement: Maximum Per Diem rate is $50 per day (average cost of lodging plus $23 sub-sistence not to exceed $50). If lod ng is not required (e.g.,12 hour1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> trave Per Diem is based on $23 per day. Reimbursed Per Diem is based on the neiber of " quarters" (six hour periods) spent on official travel.
Example: At. 3:00 p.m. traveler leaves home/ office to attend a Panel meeting greater than 35 miles from home/ office. Traveler
- returns to home at 12:00 a.m. In additian to alleage/
parking the traveler is entitled to Per Die ($23 no lodging required) multiplied by one-half (two quarters spent on travel equals 1/2 of a Per piam day). No 1
receipts (unless lodging is requiredlare necessary to 1
obtain this reimbursement.
Case 3: Over 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> is spent on official travel and travel begins before 6:00 a.m. ,o_r, ends af ter 8:00 p.m.
Allowable Reimbursement: In addition to mileage / parking the traveler can be reimbursed for one-half of Per Diem (1/2 day 0 $23 = $11.50).
I
2-ACTUAL EXPENSE TRAVEL In specified cities (the government publishes a list) travel is reimbursed up to a specified limit, based on actual expenditure. This is an attempt to compensate travelers who must travel to high-cost areas (Harrisburg, Phila-delphia and Washington are examples) where Per Diem rate could cause a hardship. Travel in this category must be greater than 35 miles (straight line) fran the traveler's departure point. There are three cases of actual expense travel.
Case 1: Time spent on travel is 10 hours1.157407e-4 days <br />0.00278 hours <br />1.653439e-5 weeks <br />3.805e-6 months <br /> or less (see Case 3 for exception).
Allowable Reimbursement: Only mileage, tolls and parking.
Case 2: Travel time is greater than 10 hours1.157407e-4 days <br />0.00278 hours <br />1.653439e-5 weeks <br />3.805e-6 months <br />.
Allowable Reimbursement: Actual expenses, to the specified limit for the actual expense city (example; Harrisburg $75/ day) are reimbursable.
Receipts are required for meals in excess of $15 per meal. Mileage / parking are also reimbursed and are not included in the limit.
Case 3: Travel either begins before 6:00 a.m. or ends af ter 8:00 p.m. and over 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> are spent on official travel.
Allowable Reimbursement: In addition to mileage / parking the traveler can be reimbursed for the actual cost of a meal (less alcoholic beverages).
Example: At 5:00 p.m. the traveler leaves home/ office for a Panel neeting in Harrisburg (a designated actual expense city,
$75 maximum per day). Traveler returns homa at 11:01 p.m.
In addition to milea alcoholic beverages)ge thereimbursed.

A claim letter will be generated and you will be required to sign and return to the NRC Panel Liaison. The bill and claim letter will be submitted for direct reimbursement to you for the amount due.
