The cost
of fuel is included in the per-mile rate you pay
when you rent a vehicle from Fleet Operations. Fleet
vehicles located at University Park or in the State
College area must fuel at the Fleet facility.
Fuel purchased from service stations in the State
College area will be billed to the department paying
for the vehicle if the fuel could have been obtained
at Fleet Operations. The Voyager fuel card—located
in the visor packet holder above the driver’s
seat—should be used for all other fuel purchases.
(In certain cases, the card can also be used to
pay for emergency repairs.)
Only regular octane fuel should be used in Fleet
vehicles.
Before fueling, make every attempt to verify that
the station accepts the Voyager fuel card. Reimbursement
on cash purchases will only be made if you are traveling
in Canada, in Mexico, or in other areas that do
not have participating Voyager
stations. In these cases, departments will need
to make sure travelers have other means of purchasing
fuel. Original receipts (marked with the customer’s
University ID number, office address, and signature)
will be required to process reimbursement.
The Voyager fuel card and receipts for purchases
must be returned
with the vehicle. Any unauthorized purchases
will be billed to the department requesting travel,
along with a $10 penalty fee. Lost Voyager fuel
cards should be reported immediately to Fleet Operations.
A $50 penalty fee applies if the card needs to be
cancelled and a new one issued.
