DFAS IS UPDATING THE MARINE CORPS TOTAL FORCE SYSTEM (MCTFS) TO
INCORPORATE THESE CHANGES. PAYMENTS WILL BE MADE TO EFFECTED
MEMBERS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, WITH PAYMENTS RETROACTIVE TO 1 OCTOBER

4. CSP PREMIUM (CSPP) ($100 PER MONTH) IS PAYABLE WHEN THE SEA DUTY
COUNTER INDICATES MORE THAN 36 CONSECUTIVE MONTHS OF SEA DUTY AND
ONLY FOR PERIODS IN WHICH THE MEMBER IS ENTITLED TO CSP. PRIOR TO
REFORM, E5-E9 PERSONNEL WITH OVER 5 YEARS OF SEA DUTY WERE NOT

INTO THE TABLE. EFFECTIVE 1 OCTOBER 2001, E5-E9 WITH MORE THAN 36
MONTHS OF CONSECUTIVE SEA DUTY WILL RECEIVE CSPP AS A SEPARATE
PAYMENT THROUGH THE SEVENTH YEAR OF SEA DUTY. AT OVER 8 YEARS OF
SEA DUTY, THE PREMIUM WILL BE EMBEDDED INTO E5-E9 CSP RATE TABLES
REGARDLESS OF CONSECUTIVE MONTHS OF SEA DUTY.
5. REF C IS IN THE PROCESS OF BEING UPDATED AND UNTIL FINAL
REVISION IS PUBLISHED, REMAINS THE GOVERNING REGULATION EXCEPT AS
NOTED ABOVE.//
