Summary

Money that one part of the Department of Defense pays another part for services or supplies, including reimbursements under 31 U.S.C. 1535 and 1536, can be put into the receiving department’s approved account. That money can be used for the same time period as the account’s other funds and must be shown as a single fund in the Department of the Treasury’s records. The Secretary of Defense and the heads of the military departments can set a fixed fee to recover planning, supervision, administrative, or overhead costs for construction, maintenance, or repair of real property and for facility services. That fee applies regardless of which budget pays for the work.
