Transportation and Equipment

Charges should have sufficient documentation and explanation of necessity.
  • Personal expenses
    • Expenses may include meals and lodging required by use of the utility’s forces in remote areas. The costs should be in keeping with those normally incurred by the utility.
  • Equipment
    • For reimbursement, specify type, size, and rate of each piece of equipment used.
    • The charges should reflect the utility’s normal accounting procedures.
    • Rentals should also be shown by type, size, and rate.
    • Published equipment rates, instead of actual rate, are not allowable, (i.e., Petroleum Motor Transport Association (PMTA) rates).
