Instruction, unless the Firefighter works more than 144 hours
during the pay period. Separate limits are provided for regular
overtime, administratively uncontrollable overtime for criminal
investigators as discussed in reference (a), and special,
reimbursable overtime as discussed in reference (b). In all cases, it
is to be recognized that these limits are established as a necessary

purpose may not fully accommodate the amounts approved locally.
As with other types of overtime, the Commandant does not write a
"blank check" for overtime approved on an "administratively

these three separate limits are exceeded, or when it is known that
the limits will be exceeded, an amount of money to cover the
unauthorized overtime expenditure shall be transferred by the

command allocated an overtime limit shall designate an AFC-08
overtime management contact point, and shall so inform
Commandant (G-PC). As necessary,
