agreement of the military departments, reimbursement for use of
administrative support aircraft is based on the standard rate contained
in Air Force Regulations 76-11, Military Airlift, U.S. Government
Rate Tariffs. When a standard rate for an aircraft is not available, a
rate is developed locally, based on flying hour program cost data. By
mutual agreement, however, insignificant support may be
nonreimbursable.

075202 FINANCIAL ADMINISTRATION OF
INTERSERVICE SUPPORT
1. SCOPE. Interservice support under equitable procedures between an
element of the Department of the Navy (DON) and other military department,
Defense agency, or Federal department, is encouraged when such
arrangements result in effectiveness and economy. Support agreements for
provision of facilities and services between Department of Defense (DoD)
activities may be executed on a reimbursable or nonreimbursable basis.
Support performed by Navy and Marine Corps activities for other DoD
activities normally is reimbursable to the host unless otherwise directed by the
Secretary of Defense, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, or the Secretary of the Navy.
The provision of logistic support by a DON activity to other Federal
departments and agencies is executed on a reimbursable basis and is subject to
the establishment of statutory authority to provide such support. The
Economy Act (31 U.S. Code 1535 and 1536) or other applicable laws should
be cited as authority for entering into such support agreements.
2. DEFINITIONS
a. General. Support encompasses services provided to receiving
activities, such as maintenance of facilities, telecommunications, and
police and fire protection, which require labor, material, or utility costs for

when reimbursable and "common-service" when nonreimbursable.
b. Facilities. The physical plant encompassing land and improvements
thereto on military department installations or leased by or otherwise
controlled by these departments. Improvements include buildings or other
