DAF-7- ADMINISTRATION OF FEDERAL GRANTS – TRAVEL REIMBURSEMENT
TRAVEL REIMBURSEMENT – FEDERAL FUNDS
Allowable costs (including but not limited to travel, lodging, subsistence and incidental expenses) charged to federal grants, in whole or in part, must be considered “reasonable” and otherwise “allowable” to the extent that the costs “do not exceed charges that would normally be incurred and charged to nonfederal cost centers for regular operations” (i.e., “normal” air cost; unless an allowable exception for handicap, disability, etc. related considerations).
Allowed direct travel costs must be documented and demonstrate that:
- participation of the person(s) is “necessary" to the federal grant, and
- the costs are “reasonable” and “consistent” with nonfederal direct travel costs.
