(5) CÁLCULO DEL TIEMPO DE VIAJE PARA EL REEMBOLSO. Para fines de reembolso y métodos para calcular los días fraccionarios de viaje, se prescriben los siguientes principios:

(a) El día de viaje para viajes Clase A será un día calendario (medianoche a medianoche). El día de viaje para viajes de Clase B comenzará al mismo tiempo que el período de viaje. Para los viajes de Clase A y Clase B, se le reembolsará al viajero un cuarto de la tarifa autorizada de per diem por cada trimestre, o fracción del mismo, del día de viaje incluido dentro del período de viaje. Los viajes de Clase A y Clase B incluirán cualquier asignación en asuntos oficiales fuera del horario regular de oficina y fuera de los lugares de empleo regulares, cuando se considere razonable y necesario pasar la noche y para lo cual se aprueben los gastos de viaje.

(b) No se reembolsará a un viajero una base diaria para el viaje de Clase C, pero recibirá pagos de subsistencia según lo dispuesto en esta sección, cuya prestación para las comidas se basará en el siguiente horario:

1. Desayuno: cuando el viaje comienza antes de las 6 a.m. y se extiende más allá de las 8 a.m.

2. Almuerzo: cuando el viaje comienza antes de las 12 del mediodía y se extiende más allá de las 2 p.m.

3. Cena: cuando el viaje comienza antes de las 6 p.m. y se extiende más allá de las 8 p.m., o cuando el viaje ocurre durante las horas nocturnas debido a una asignación especial.

No se hará ninguna concesión para las comidas cuando el viaje está confinado a la ciudad o pueblo de la sede oficial o en las inmediaciones; excepto asignaciones de negocios oficiales fuera del lugar de trabajo habitual del viajero, si se aprueban los gastos de viaje. El Director Financiero deberá establecer un cronograma para procesar los pagos de subsistencia de viaje Clase C, al menos mensualmente.

(6) ÍNDICES DE PER DIEM Y PRESTACIONES DE SUBSISTENCIA. Para fines de las tasas de reembolso y los métodos de cálculo, los per diem y los pagos de subsistencia, se proporcionan de la siguiente manera:

(a) Se permitirán pagos de subsistencia de todos los viajeros, cuando viajen a una convención o conferencia o cuando viajen dentro o fuera del estado, con el fin de llevar a cabo negocios estatales de buena fe, cual convención, conferencia o empresa cumple un propósito público directo y legal con relación a la agencia pública atendida por la persona que asiste a dicha reunión o que realiza dicho negocio, cualquiera de los siguientes para cada día de tal viaje a opción del viajero:

1. Ochenta dólares per diem; o

2. Si los gastos reales superan los $80, las cantidades permitidas en el párrafo (b) para la subsistencia, más los gastos reales para el alojamiento a una tasa de ocupación única, se justificarán con las facturas pagas correspondientes.

Cuando el alojamiento o las comidas se brindan en una institución del estado, el viajero deberá recibir un reembolso solo por los gastos reales de dicho alojamiento o comidas, que no exceda el máximo estipulado en esta subsección.

(b) A todos los viajeros se les permitirán los siguientes montos de subsistencia mientras viajan en Clase C por asuntos oficiales, según lo dispuesto en el párrafo (5) (b):

1. Desayuno .......... $6

2. Almuerzo .......... $11

3. Cena .......... $19

(c) A nadie, ya sea que viaje sea fuera del estado o dentro del estado, se le reembolsará cualquier comida o alojamiento incluido en una tarifa de registración a la convención o conferencia pagada por el estado.

(7) TRANSPORTE.-

(a) Todos los viajes deben realizarse por una ruta generalmente recorrida. En caso de que una persona viaje por una ruta indirecta para su propia conveniencia, los costos adicionales correrán por cuenta del viajero; y el reembolso de los gastos se basará únicamente en los costos que se hubieran incurrido en una ruta que habitualmente se viaja. El jefe de la agencia o su designado designará el método de viaje más económico para cada viaje, teniendo en cuenta las siguientes condiciones:

1. La naturaleza del negocio.

2. El medio de transporte más eficiente y económico (teniendo en cuenta el tiempo del viajero, el impacto en la productividad del viajero, el costo de transporte y per diem o el pago de subsistencia requerido). Cuando es más eficiente y económico para el viajero o el jefe de agencia, el servicio de avión ofrecido por cualquier aerolínea, ya sea con contrato estatal o no, se puede usar cuando el costo está dentro de un límite aprobado determinado por el jefe de la agencia o su designado.

3. La cantidad de personas que viajan y la cantidad de equipo o material que se transportará.

(b) El Departamento de Servicios Financieros puede proporcionar cualquier forma que considere necesaria para cubrir solicitudes de viaje para viajar en asuntos oficiales y cuando el estado lo pague.

(c) El transporte realizado por un transportista común cuando se viaja por asuntos oficiales y pagado personalmente por el viajero, se justificará mediante un recibo al respecto. El impuesto federal no será reembolsable al viajero, a menos que el estado y otras agencias públicas también estén obligados por ley federal a pagar dicho impuesto. En el caso de transporte que no sea el de clase más económica aprobado por el jefe de la agencia es provisto por un transportista común en un cheque de vuelo o tarjeta de crédito, los cargos que excedan la clase más económica serán reembolsados por el viajero a la agencia encargada del transporte provisto de esta manera.

(d) 1. El uso de vehículos de propiedad privada para viajes oficiales, en lugar de vehículos de propiedad pública o transportistas comunes, pueden ser autorizados por el jefe de la agencia o su designado. Cuando el viaje sea en vehículo de propiedad privada:

a. Un viajero tendrá derecho a un subsidio por millaje a razón de 44.5 centavos por milla; o

b. Un viajero tendrá derecho a la tarifa del transportista común para tal viaje, si el jefe de la agencia lo determina como más económico.

2. No se permitirá el reembolso de los gastos relacionados con la operación, mantenimiento y propiedad de un vehículo cuando se utilicen vehículos de propiedad privada en negocios públicos y se realice un reembolso de conformidad con este párrafo, excepto lo dispuesto en la subsección (8).

3. Todo millaje se mostrará desde el punto de origen hasta el punto de destino y, cuando sea posible, se computará sobre la base del mapa existente del Departamento de Transporte. Se permite el millaje de vecindad necesario para la realización de negocios oficiales, pero debe mostrarse como un artículo separado en el comprobante de gastos.

(e) El transporte por vehículos alquilados cuando se viaja por negocios oficiales, puede ser autorizado por el jefe de la agencia cuando sea necesario o cuando sea en beneficio de la agencia, siempre que el costo de dicho transporte no exceda el costo del transporte en vehículos privados de conformidad al párrafo (d).

(f) El jefe de la agencia o su designado puede otorgar prestaciones mensuales en montos fijos para el uso de automóviles de propiedad privada en negocios oficiales en lugar de la tasa de millaje proporcionada en el párrafo (d). Las prestaciones concedidas de conformidad con este párrafo serán razonables, teniendo en cuenta el uso habitual del automóvil, las rutas habitualmente transitadas y si alguno de los gastos relacionados con la operación, el mantenimiento y la propiedad del automóvil se pagan con fondos de la agencia u otros fondos públicos. Tal prestación puede ser cambiada en cualquier momento, y se hará sobre la base de una declaración firmada del viajero, presentada antes de que se conceda o cambie la prestación, y al menos anualmente a partir de entonces. La declaración deberá mostrar los lugares y distancias para un viaje promedio mensual típico en un negocio oficial, y la cantidad que se permitiría por debajo de la tarifa aprobada por milla para el viaje que se muestra en la declaración, si el pago se realizó de conformidad con el párrafo (d) .

(g) No se puede celebrar ningún contrato entre un funcionario público o empleado, o cualquier otra persona, y una agencia pública, en la cual se usa una prestación de depreciación para calcular el monto adeudado por la agencia a la persona por el uso de un vehículo privado en negocios oficiales; siempre que dicho contrato existente no se vea perjudicado.

(h) A ningún viajero se le permitirán ni el millaje ni los gastos de transporte cuando sea transportado gratuitamente por otra persona o cuando sea transportado por otro viajero que tenga derecho a millas o gastos de transporte. Sin embargo, a un viajero en una aeronave privada se le reembolsará el monto real cobrado y pagado por la tarifa de dicho transporte hasta el costo de un boleto aéreo comercial para el mismo vuelo, incluso si el propietario o piloto de dicha aeronave también tiene derecho a gastos de transporte para el mismo vuelo bajo esta subsección.

(8) OTROS GASTOS.-

(a) Se pueden reembolsar los siguientes gastos de viaje incidentales del viajero:

1. Tarifa del taxi.

2. Tarifas de “ferry”; y peajes de puentes, carreteras y túneles.

3. Tarifas de almacenamiento o estacionamiento.

4. Gastos de comunicación.

5. Cuota de registro de la Convención mientras se asiste a una convención o conferencia que servirá para un propósito público directo con relación a la agencia pública servida por la persona que asiste a dichas reuniones. Se puede reembolsar a un viajero las tarifas actuales y necesarias para asistir a eventos que no están incluidos en una tarifa de registro básica que mejora directamente el propósito público de la participación de la agencia en la conferencia. Tales gastos pueden incluir, pero no se limitan a, banquetes y otras funciones de comida. Será responsabilidad del viajero justificar que los cargos fueron apropiados y necesarios. Sin embargo, cualquier comida o alojamiento incluido en la tarifa de registro se deducirá de acuerdo con las prestaciones provistas en la subsección (6).

(b) Otros gastos que no estén específicamente autorizados por esta sección pueden ser aprobados por el Departamento de Servicios Financieros de conformidad con las reglas que adopte. Los gastos aprobados conforme a este párrafo serán informados anualmente por el Departamento de Servicios Financieros al Auditor General.

(9) REGLAS.-

(a) El Departamento de Servicios Financieros adoptará tales reglas, que incluyen, pero no limitadas a, los criterios generales que utilizará una agencia estatal para predeterminar la justificación de la asistencia de funcionarios y empleados estatales y personas autorizadas en convenciones y conferencias, y prescribirá tales formas como sean necesarias para efectuar los propósitos de esta sección. El departamento también puede adoptar reglas que prescriban la correcta disposición y uso de los artículos promocionales y descuentos ofrecidos por los operadores comunes y otras entidades en relación con los viajes a expensas del público; sin embargo, antes de adoptar tales reglas, el departamento consultará con los comités de apropiaciones de la Legislatura.

(b) Cada agencia estatal deberá adoptar tales reglas específicas adicionales y criterios específicos para predeterminar la justificación de la asistencia de funcionarios y empleados estatales y personas autorizadas en convenciones y conferencias, que no entren en conflicto con las reglas del Departamento de Servicios Financieros o con los criterios generales que utilizará una agencia estatal para predeterminar la justificación de la asistencia de funcionarios y empleados estatales y personas autorizadas en las convenciones, según sea necesario para llevar a cabo los propósitos de esta sección.

(10) RECLAMOS FRAUDULENTOS.-No se requerirá que los reclamos presentados de conformidad con esta sección presten juramento ante un notario público u otro funcionario autorizado para administrar juramentos, pero cualquier reclamo autorizado o requerido bajo cualquier disposición de esta sección contendrá una declaración de que el viajero en realidad incurrió en los gastos como gastos de viaje necesarios en el desempeño de los deberes oficiales y se verificará mediante una declaración escrita de que es verdadero y correcto en cuanto a cada asunto importante; y cualquier persona que deliberadamente haga y suscriba cualquier reclamo que no considere verdadero y correcto en relación con cualquier asunto importante, o que voluntariamente ayude o asista, o procure, asesore o aconseje la preparación o presentación bajo las disposiciones de esta sección de un reclamo que es fraudulenta o es falsa en cuanto a cualquier asunto importante, ya sea que dicha falsedad o fraude sea con el conocimiento o consentimiento de la persona autorizada o requerida para presentar dicho reclamo, es culpable de un delito menor de segundo grado, punible según lo dispuesto en s. 775.082 o s. 775.083. Quien reciba un subsidio o reembolso por medio de un reclamo falso será civilmente responsable por el monto del pago en exceso por el reembolso del fondo público del cual se pagó el reclamo.

(11) AUTORIZACIÓN DE VIAJE Y FORMULARIOS DE VALES.-

(a) Formularios de autorización.- El Departamento de Servicios Financieros deberá proporcionar un formulario de solicitud de autorización de viaje uniforme que deberán usar todos los funcionarios, empleados y personas autorizadas del estado cuando soliciten la aprobación para realizar un viaje a una convención o conferencia. El formulario incluirá, entre otros, la disposición del nombre de cada viajero, el propósito del viaje, el período de viaje, el costo estimado para el estado y una declaración de los beneficios acumulados para el estado en virtud de dicho viaje. Una copia del programa o agenda de la convención o conferencia, detallando las tarifas de registro y cualquier comida o alojamiento incluidos en la tarifa de registro, se adjuntará y archivará con la copia del formulario de solicitud de autorización de viaje en el archivo de la agencia. El viajero y el supervisor del viajero deberán firmar el formulario que establezca que el viaje se realizará en relación con los asuntos oficiales del estado. El jefe de la agencia o su representante designado no autorizarán ni aprobarán dicha solicitud en ausencia de las firmas apropiadas. Se adjuntará una copia del formulario de autorización de viaje y se convertirá en parte del respaldo de la copia del vale de viaje de la agencia.

(b) Formularios de vales.-

1. El Departamento de Servicios Financieros deberá proporcionar un formulario de vales de viaje uniforme que será utilizado por todos los funcionarios del estado, empleados y personas autorizadas al presentar las declaraciones de gastos de viaje para su aprobación y pago. El Director Financiero no aprobará ninguna declaración de gastos de viaje a menos que se haga en el formulario prescrito y proporcionado por el departamento. El formulario de vales de viaje deberá prever, entre otras cosas, el propósito del viaje oficial y una certificación o afirmación, que deberá firmar el viajero, indicando la veracidad y exactitud del reclamo en cada asunto importante, que los gastos de viaje fueron en realidad incurridos por el viajero según sea necesario en el desempeño de los deberes oficiales, que el per diem reclamado ha sido reducido apropiadamente por cualquier comida o alojamiento incluido en la convención o tarifas de inscripción a la conferencia, reclamadas por el viajero, y que el vale cumpla en todos los aspectos con los requisitos de esta sección. La copia original del formulario de solicitud de autorización de viaje uniforme firmado se adjuntará al vale de viaje uniforme en el archivo de la agencia respectiva.

(12) AVANCES. A pesar de cualquiera de las restricciones y limitaciones anteriores, el jefe de la agencia o la persona designada por él puede realizar o autorizar la realización de anticipos para cubrir los costos de viaje anticipados para los viajeros. Dichos adelantos pueden incluir los costos de subsistencia y viaje de cualquier persona transportada bajo el cuidado o la custodia del viajero en el desempeño de sus funciones.

(13) PAGO DIRECTO DE GASTOS POR AGENCIA.-Siempre que una agencia exija que un empleado incurra en un viaje Clase A o Clase B por aviso de emergencia al viajero, dicho viajero puede solicitar a la agencia que pague sus gastos de comidas y alojamiento directamente al vendedor, y la agencia puede pagar al vendedor los gastos actuales de comidas y alojamiento durante el período de viaje, limitado a un monto que no exceda el autorizado de conformidad con esta sección. En situaciones de emergencia, el jefe de la agencia o su designado puede autorizar un aumento en el monto pagado por una comida específica, siempre que el costo total diario de las comidas no supere la cantidad total autorizada para las comidas de cada día. El jefe de la agencia o su designado también pueden otorgar aprobación previa para que una agencia estatal realice pagos directos de gastos de viaje en otras situaciones que generen ahorros de costos para el estado, y dichos ahorros se documentarán en el comprobante enviado al Director Financiero para el pago directo de los gastos de viaje. Las disposiciones de esta subsección no se considerarán aplicables a ningún legislador ni a ningún empleado de la Legislatura.

(14) APLICABILIDAD A CONDADOS, OFICIALES DEL CONDADO, JUNTAS ESCOLARES DE DISTRITO, DISTRITOS ESPECIALES Y ORGANIZACIONES DE PLANIFICACIÓN METROPOLITANA.-

A person whose substantial interests are or may be affected has the right to request an administrative hearing by filing a written petition with the District. Pursuant to Chapter 28-106 and Rule 40C-1.1007, Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.), the petition must be filed (received) either by delivery at the office of the District Clerk at District Headquarters, P. O. Box 1429, Palatka Florida 32178-1429 (4049 Reid St., Palatka, FL 32177) or by e-mail with the District Clerk at Clerk@sjrwmd.com, within twenty-one (21) days of newspaper publication of the notice of District decision (for those persons to whom the District does not mail or email actual notice). A petition for an administrative hearing is deemed filed upon receipt of the complete petition by the District Clerk at the District Headquarters in Palatka, Florida during the District's regular business hours. The District's regular business hours are 8 a.m. – 5 p.m., excluding weekends and District holidays. Petitions received by the District Clerk after the District's regular business hours shall be deemed filed as of 8 a.m. on the next regular District business day.

The right to an administrative hearing and the relevant procedures to be followed are governed by Chapter 120, F.S., Chapter 28-106, F.A.C., and Rule 40C-1.1007, F.A.C. Because the administrative hearing process is designed to formulate final agency action, the filing of a petition means the District's final action may be different from the position taken by it in this notice.
