                  In the Matter of ROBERT MADDEN       


     Alan Banov of Alan Banov & Associates, Washington, DC, appearing for Claimant.

     Kathryn DuCharme Poling, Agency Representative CECOM Bevoir Legal Office,
Fort Belvoir, VA, appearing for Department of the Army.
     
BORWICK, Board Judge.

     In this matter claimant sought payment for the shipment of his household goods by
the commuted rate method rather than the actual expense method the agency had used as the
basis for reimbursement.  On August 30, 2002, the agency advised the Board that it had
amended claimant's travel authorization to authorize reimbursement by the commuted rate
method.  In view of the agency's action, claimant advised the Board that he had no objection
to dismissal of the claim.  Having been resolved by the parties, this matter is DISMISSED.
