CONSTRUCTION OR INACTIVATION AWAY FROM<br />

HOME PORT<br />

1. CIRCUMSTANCES. The Secretaries of the Military Departments are<br />

authorized by 37 U.S. Code 406b to prescribe regulations for round trip<br />

site and homeport for certain members of the Uniformed Services serving on<br />

ships which are undergoing overhauls or inactivations at locations away from<br />

homeports. In addition, 37 U.S. Code 406c authorizes similar transportation<br />

for members permanently assigned to ships under new construction between<br />

the construction site and either the designated homeport or the area where<br />

dependents are residing. This paragraph delineates budgetary and financial<br />
