(e) Neither this section nor § 370.73531 precludes an employee from receipt of bona fide reimbursement, unless prohibited by law, for expenses of travel and such other necessary subsistence as is compatible with this part for which no Government payment or reimbursement is made, if approved in accordance with §§ 370.735-34-370.735-36, inclusive. However, this paragraph does not allow an employee to be reimbursed, or payment to be made on his behalf, for excessive personal living expenses, gifts, entertainment, or other personal benefits; nor does it allow an employee to be reimbursed for travel on official business under Board orders when reimbursement is proscribed by Decision B-128527 of the Comptroller General, dated March 7, 1967.

An employee shall not solicit contributions from another employee for a gift to an employee in a superior official position. An employee in a superior official position shall not accept a gift presented as a contribution from employees receiving less salary than himself. An employee shall not make a donation as a gift to an employee in a superior official position (5 U.S.C. 7351). However, this provision does not prohibit a voluntary gift of nominal value or a donation in a nominal amount made on a special occasion such as marriage, illness, or retirement.

§ 370.735-24 Gifts from foreign govern

ments.

An employee shall not accept a gift, present, decoration, or other thing from a foreign government unless authorized by Congress as provided by the Constitution and Public Law 89-673, 80 Stat. 952. Any such gift or thing which cannot appropriately be refused shall be submitted to the Ethics Counselor for transmittal to the State Department.

sons for an examination of the Civil Service Commission or Board of Examiners for the Foreign Service, that depends on information obtained as a result of his Government employment, except when that information has been made available to the general public or will be made available on request, or when the Chairman or the Managing Director gives written authorization for use of nonpublic information on the basis that the use is in the public interest.

(b) An employee may request a waiver, modification or postponement of the implementation of this prohibition, in accordance with the procedures of $370.735-14, on grounds of undue hardship to himself or the family member involved, where it is clear that the employment of such family member will not tend to influence the judgment or action of the employee on matters coming before him, will not encourage premature or improper disclosure of information to the family member, otherwise create any form of conflict of interest. The request must contain an agreement to forego any privilege the Board employee would be entitled to as a relative of the family member.

or

§ 370.735-38 Future employment. (a) An employee shall not participate personally and substantially in a particular matter in which, to his or her knowledge, a person or organization with whom the employee is negotiating or has any arrangement concerning prospective employment has a financial

interest. Unless such negotiation or arrangements are rejected at the outset, employees are encouraged to report the facts promptly to the Ethics Counselor. With the authorization of his supervisor and the agreement of the Ethics Counselor, an employee may be relieved of any assignment which, in the absence of such relief, might preclude such negotiation or arrangements. A waiver of this provision may be granted in accordance with the procedure set forth in § 370.735-14 upon a determination that the prospective employer's interest is not so substantial as to be deemed likely to affect the integrity of the employee's services.

A Form 16 shall also be filed by every present employee of the Board (other than Board Members) within 30 days after the effectiveness of amendment No. 3. The Office of Personnel shall immediately send such forms to the Ethics Administrator. Board Members shall only file a Confidential Statement of Employment and Financial Interests required by E.O. 11222 directly with the Civil Service Commission, including all information relating to civil aeronautics enterprises.

(c) Any employee who by purchase, gift, inheritance or otherwise acquires a financial interest in a civil aeronautics enterprise shall within 14 days of such acquisition complete and forward to the Office of Personnel a Form 16 reporting such acquisition. The Office of Personnel shall immediately forward a copy of such Form 16 to the Ethics Administrator.

(d) During each January the Office of Personnel shall remind employees by Staff Notice of their obligations to report holdings of financial interests in civil aeronautics enterprises. Periodically, the Ethics Administrator shall distribute bulletins to employees listing those entities which have been determined to be or not to be civil aeronautics enterprises, with brief explanatory information as to the reasons therefor. Each such bulletin shall contain a warning that the listings may not be taken as conclusive as the nature of an enterprise may change with the passage of time.

(e) The Ethics Administrator shall review all Form 16's and furnish advice respecting civil aeronautics enterprises to employees when requested or required. If, on the basis of past determinations of the Ethics Counselor or the Board, the entity being reviewed clearly appears

to be or not to be a civil aeronautics enterprise, the Ethics Administrator shall so advise the employee, the Office of Personnel and the Ethics Counselor. The Ethics Counselor may reopen a case if he disagrees with the Ethics Administrator. If the Ethics Administrator cannot reach a determination in a given case, or if the employee disagrees with the Ethics Administrator, the matter shall be presented to the Ethics Counselor promptly. The Ethics Counselor shall determine whether the entity in question is a civil aeronautics enterprise and the nature and timing of reasonable remedial action. The Ethics Counselor's determination may not be appealed by the employee. If the employee does not wish to dispose of his financial interest in the civil aeronautics enterprise in accordance with the Ethics Counselor's decision he must within one week thereafter request a waiver from § 370.73572(a) in accordance with the procedures set forth in §§ 370.735-14 and 370.73572(f). The Ethics Administrator and Ethics Counselor shall each normally make his decision on whether an entity is a civil aeronautics enterprise within one week of the presentation of the matter to him. The employee holding the financial interest shall furnish as much information as possible for use in determining the nature of the entity.

(f) An employee other than a Board member may, in accordance

with

§ 370.735-14, request a waiver, modification or postponement of the implementation of this section, if this section would impose an undue hardship upon the employee and is not required in the public interest. In considering the employee's request for a waiver, modification or postponement, the following factors, among others, shall be considered: (1) The nature and extent of the employee's holdings, in terms both of the number of shares owned by the employee and the total shares outstanding, (2) the manner and date of acquisition of the financial interest, including the circumstance that the holding was lawful prior to September 20, 1977, (3) the nature of the employee's title to or obligations concerning the interest, (4) the nature and extent of the hardship to the employee if the waiver is denied, (5) the employee's function in the Board's decision-making process, (6) the extent and frequency of the disqualification of the employee from participation in the Board's work if the financial interest were retained, and (7) the reasons why the employee believes the retention of the financial interest will not tend to influence the performance of official duties, will not encourage premature or improper disclosure of information to any person, and will not otherwise create any form of conflict of interest or appearance thereof, and is not contrary

The employee shall immediately advise the Ethics Administrator upon disposition of the prohibited interest or other compliance with an order of the appropriate official and shall furnish the Ethics Administrator any information earlier requested regarding the employee's progress in disposing of the interest.

(h) An employee holding a financial interest in an entity which is or may be a civil aeronautics enterprise shall withdraw from participation in any matter affecting such entity and shall notify the immediate supervisor of the holding of such a financial interest immediately upon the employee's acquisition of such an interest or the discovery that a previously acquired interest may violate this section.

(i) Appropriate actions for remedying the holding of a prohibited financial interest by a Board employee (other than a Member) which may be determined, in appropriate cases, by the Ethics Administrator, the Ethics Counselor, or the Board, include: Divestiture (with such conditions as may reasonably be appropriate); the establishment of a "blind trust" or other like independent investment arrangement; or any other arrangement approved by the Ethics Administrator, Ethics Counselor or the Board as authorized to pass finally upon the case in question.

(j) In the event that an employee's holding of a financial interest in an entity is determined not to be a holding in a civil aeronautics enterprise, but the entity is, or owns or controls a direct air carrier (whether domestic, foreign, or intrastate), other than an air taxi operator, or is or owns or controls an air freight forwarder, the employee shall report the name of the entity and the name of the air carrier or freight forwarder company so held, and the Ethics Administrator shall file a report in the Conflicts File (alphabetical by name of employee) in the Public Reference Room showing the name of the employee, the name of the entity and the name of the air carrier company.

(4) The interest of an employee's spouse, minor children and other permanent members of the employee's immediate household is considered to be the interest of the employee.

(b) (1) The Ethics Administrator shall review the statements of financial interests and employment of all employees other than Board Members for the purpose of determining whether any conflict of interest or apparent conflict is present. If a conflict or apparent conflict is found, the Ethics Administrator shall give the employee an opportunity to explain it. If the Ethics Administrator thereafter finds on the basis of past determinations of the Ethics Counselor or the Board, that there is a conflict or apparent conflict of interest, he shall so advise the employee, the Office of Personnel, the employee's bureau or office head, and the Ethics Counselor and shall also advise such persons of what remedial action must be taken. The remedial action may include the employee's divestiture of the conflicting interest, disqualification for particular assignments, reassignment, disciplinary action, or the remedies specified in § 370.735-72 (i). The Ethics Counselor may reopen the matter if he disagrees with the Ethics Administrator.

(2) If the Ethics Administrator canEd. 11-77

not resolve the case, or if the employee disagrees with the Ethics Administrator, the matter shall be presented to the Ethics Counselor within one week together with any additional written statement the employee may wish to make, and the Ethics Counselor shall decide the case.

(3) An employee may appeal the Ethics Counselor's decision to the Board by forwarding to it within one week of such decision a statement setting forth why the employee believes the Ethics Counselor's decision should be changed. A copy of such statement shall be given at the same time to the Ethics Counselor.

(4) The employee shall comply with the decision of the Ethics Administrator or Ethics Counselor except only insofar as such decision is later changed by the Ethics Counselor or the Board, as the case may be. The effectiveness of the decision of the Ethics Administrator or the Ethics Counselor shall be stayed for two working days after the employee receives notice thereof to permit the employee to request the Ethics Counselor or the Board, or any Member thereof, for a stay of the decision of the Ethics Administrator or Ethics Counselor pending the determination of a timely filed appeal. The employee may not apply for a waiver from this section under 370.735-14. Any remedial action shall be effected in accordance with applicable laws, executive orders and Civil Service Commission or Board regulations. The Ethics Administrator, the Ethics Counselor and the Board shall normally decide each matter within one week, and the employee shall be responsible for promptly furnishing any information available to him requested by such officers.

(5) The Office of General Counsel of the Board shall be available for consultation with the Civil Service Commission in connection with any inquiry it may make about the holdings of any Member.

Only the following persons shall have access to such a report and only for purposes of administering this part: The Ethics Administrator, Ethics Counselor, Deputy Ethics Counselor, Director of Office of Personnel and employees designated by the Director to tabulate the reports, Board Members and the employee submitting the report. When necessary in the interest of the Government, for good cause shown, the Civil Service Commission or the Board may upon written request authorize access by other government officials. In such event, the employee shall be notified in writing at least 10 days in advance of such authorized access. Except when being reviewed by authorized persons, the reports shall be stored in locked containers.

(d) If any information required to be included on a statement of employment and financial interests or supplementary statement, including holdings placed in trust, is not known to the employee but

is known to another person, the employee is responsible for requesting that other person to submit the information on his behalf.

(e) For the purpose of this section, educational and other institutions doing research and development or related work involving grants of money from, or contracts with, the Government are deemed to be business enterprises and are required to be included in the statement. Otherwise, information relating to the employee's connection with, or interest in, a professional society or & charitable, religious, social, fraternal, recreational, public service, civic, or political organization or similar organization not conducted as a business enterprise is not required to be reported.

(f) The statements required by this section are in addition to, and not in substitution for, or in derogation of, any similar requirement imposed by law, order or regulation. The submission of a statement by an employee does not permit him or any other person to participate in a matter in which his or the other person's participation is prohibited by law, order or regulation.

§ 370.735-74 Employees required to submit statements.

(a) Every employee (other than Board Members), including special Government employees and consultants and experts working under contract, shall execute and forward to the Office of Personnel for transmittal to the Ethics Administrator a Form 16 report of all financial interests in any civil aeronautics enterprise and any enterprise which is primarily a surface common carrier.
