§301-11.6. Selecting lodging and making lodging reservations.
41 C.F.R. § 301-11.6
Employees must make their lodging reservations through their agency's travel management service.
Employees should always stay in a “fire safe” facility. This is a facility that meets the fire safety requirements of the Hotel and Motel Fire Safety Act of 1990 (the Act), as amended (see 5 U.S.C. 5707a).
When selecting a commercial lodging facility, first consideration should be given to Government lodging agreement programs such as FedRooms®.
Section 5707a of title 5, U.S.C., does not apply to the government of the District of Columbia.
