Last revised

  1. Purpose

    To ensure that state vehicles assigned to departments receive regular maintenance.

  2. Policy

    Departments with assigned vehicles that are used to transport personnel or students are responsible for the regular service of these vehicles. Sound management practices require that these vehicles be maintained in perfect mechanical condition.

  3. Implementation

    Departments with assigned vehicles must maintain records to document each vehicle's odometer reading and submit these records to the Physical Plant Automotive Maintenance Department monthly. Automotive Maintenance will notify departments when regular service is scheduled for the vehicle. For trips more than a 50-mile radius from campus, Automotive Maintenance will inspect and approve the vehicle prior to the trip. All department vehicles will be inspected by Automotive Maintenance for mechanical defects at least once per year.
