(1) The cost can be budgeted at a specified rate per mile, the same as or less than the state rate per mile. Documentation is the same as that required for staff travel.

(2) The cost can be budgeted on a cost reimbursement basis, that is depreciation or use charge for the vehicle plus the actual operating expenses, which may include fuel, oil, repairs, and insurance.

(3) The cost can be budgeted as a subcontract with a transportation company if the department approves the subcontract. The subcontract must be submitted to the contract representative for prior approval.
