submitted 84 years ago by ch. 473 to r/title-16-CONSERVATION · 112 words · no verdicts yet
Beginning July 2, 1942, officers and crews of Fish and Wildlife Service vessels may receive up to $1 per person per day instead of rations, under Interior Department regulations. The section also allows mess managers to receive the related money and prevents required salary deductions for quarters and rations supplied aboard the vessels.
Beginning July 2, 1942, officers and crews of United States Fish and Wildlife Service vessels may be paid a ration allowance of no more than $1 per person per day under regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Interior. Money resulting from replacing rations with this allowance on vessels may be paid, on proper vouchers, to the people in charge of the vessels’ messes. Section 5911 of title 5 must not be interpreted to require deductions from the salaries of these officers and crew members for quarters and rations supplied on the vessels.
On and after July 2, 1942, commutation of rations (not to exceed $1 per man per day) may be paid to officers and crews of vessels of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service under regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Interior, and money accruing from commutation of rations on board vessels may be paid on proper vouchers to the persons having charge of the mess of such vessels; and section 5911 of title 5, shall not be construed to require deductions from the salaries of officers and crews of vessels of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service for quarters and rations furnished on vessels of said Service.
