Privately Owned Vehicle Mileage Reimbursement Rates

AGENCY: Office of Governmentwide Policy (OGP), General Services 
Administration (GSA).

ACTION: Notice of FTR Bulletin 13-02, Calendar Year (CY) 2013 Privately 
Owned Vehicle Mileage Reimbursement Rates.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The General Services Administration's annual privately owned 
vehicle (POV) mileage reimbursement rate reviews have resulted in new 
CY 2013 rates for the use of privately owned automobiles (POA), POAs 
when Government owned automobiles (GOA) are authorized, privately owned 
motorcycles, and privately owned airplanes for official purposes. FTR 
Bulletin 13-02 establishes the new CY 2013 mileage reimbursement rates 
($0.565 for POAs, $0.24 for POAs when a GOA is authorized, $0.535 for 
privately owned motorcycles, and $1.33 for privately owned airplanes) 
pursuant to the process discussed below. This notice of subject 
bulletin is the only notification of revisions to the POV rates to 
agencies other than the changes posted on the GSA Web site. GSA 
determines these rates by reviewing the annual standard automobile 
study contracted for by the Internal Revenue Service, as well as 
conducting independent automobile, motorcycle, and aircraft studies 
that evaluate various factors, such as the cost of fuel, the 
depreciation of the original vehicles costs, maintenance and insurance, 
and or by applying consumer price index data.

DATES: Effective date: This notice is effective December 28, 2012 and 
applies to travel performed on or after January 1, 2013 through 
December 31, 2013.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For clarification of content, please

Asset and Transportation Management, at 202 219-2349, or by email at

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Change in Standard Procedure

    GSA posts the POV mileage reimbursement rates, formerly published 
in 41 CFR Chapter 301, solely on the internet at www.gsa.gov/ftr. This 
process, implemented in FTR

[[Page 76488]]

Amendment 2010-07 (75 FR 72965, Nov. 29, 2010), ensures more timely 
updates in mileage reimbursement rates by GSA for Federal employees on 
official travel. Notices published periodically in the Federal 
Register, such as this one, and the changes posted on the GSA Web site, 
now constitute the only notification of revisions to privately owned 
vehicle reimbursement rates for Federal agencies.

    Dated: December 21, 2012.
Janet Dobbs,
Deputy Associate Administrator, Office of Asset and Transportation 
Management, Office of Government Policy.
