RANDOLPH AIR FORCE BASE, Texas -- In response to the mid-year rise in gasoline prices, the General Service Administration raised the temporary duty mileage rate from $0.505 per mile to $0.585 for military travelers using personal vehicles. The increase applies to all uniformed personnel and civilian employees traveling on official business by privately owned automobile or motorcycle, effective Aug. 1.

The GSA amended the Federal Travel Regulation and announced the increase July 28 following mileage rate increases established by the Internal Revenue Service. Personnel receive the TDY mileage rate when no government owned vehicle is available.
