    2. Accommodations within 50KMS of Regular Work Location
      The President will be reimbursed for overnight accommodation expenses within 50 km of their regular work location when it is impractical or unsafe to travel. In lieu of the pre-approval documentation normally required in section 4.14c.ii of Policy 62.01, a notation of the reason must be included in the travel expense claim documentation.
    3. Out of Province Travel
      The President is permitted to travel to out-of-province/country destinations without submitting an Out of Province/Country Travel Request Form for approval prior to traveling, as normally required under sections 4.8c and 4.8d of Policy 62.01.
