A memo was published on the intranet on April 17 in which Chief Fisher discussed sequestration, including how CBP has postponed furloughs and the de-authorization. However, the memo goes on to say:
“To meet budgetary requirements, agents assigned to basic tours of duty should be used as much as possible to avoid situations where overtime work is required.”
We’ll have to wait and see what exactly they mean by this, but it sounds like they are still planning on trying to control AUO.
