Personnel
(1) Transfer of Official Duty Station.
Generally, the organizational component which budgets for and
funds the transfer travel from one official duty station to another,
including transfer from one department of the Federal Government
to another, also will budget for and fund the costs of transporting
and handling household goods. Except as provided in subpars. (2)

household goods, as required by the Joint Travel Regulations,
par. C1052.
(b) Intra-DoD Transfers. Costs related to transfers between
Department of the Navy activities or to transfers from the
Department of the Navy to another DoD department or agency

provided by its parent command.
(c) Transfers to the Department of the Navy. Costs related to

to transfers from the Department of the Navy to a non-DoD
department or agency may be borne in whole or in part by the
