Transportation Modes Sample Clauses
The Transportation Modes clause defines the types of transportation methods permitted or required for the delivery of goods or services under an agreement. It typically specifies whether shipments must be made by road, rail, air, sea, or a combination, and may outline any restrictions or preferences for certain carriers or routes. By clearly establishing acceptable transportation options, this clause helps prevent disputes over delivery methods and ensures that both parties have a shared understanding of logistical expectations.
Transportation Modes. (a) The general rule for selection of a mode of transportation is that mode which represents the lowest expense to the County. Where an employee is given the choice between several means of travel (e.g. use of County vehicle vs. own personal vehicle, flying vs. driving, etc.) and the employee chooses the option that is more costly, the employee shall only be reimbursed for the lesser cost option. For example, if an employee chooses to drive his/her own vehicle when offered a County vehicle, the employee shall not be entitled to any reimbursement. Similarly, if the cost of flying on an airplane is less than the cost of driving, the employee shall only be reimbursed for the amount the County would have paid for the flight.

Transportation Modes.
(a) The general rule for selection of a mode of transportation is that mode which represents the lowest expense to the Fire District. Where an employee is given the choice between several means of travel (e.g., use of Fire District vehicle vs. own personal vehicle, flying vs. driving, etc.) and the employee chooses the option that is more costly, the employee shall only be reimbursed for the lesser cost option. For example, if an employee chooses to drive their own vehicle when offered a Fire District vehicle, the employee shall not be entitled to any reimbursement. Similarly, if the cost of flying on an airplane is less than the cost of driving, the employee shall only be reimbursed for the amount the Fire District would have paid for the flight.
(b) Travel via Private Automobile
(1) Reimbursement for the use of privately owned automobiles to conduct Fire District business shall be at the IRS allowable rate when the mileage was incurred. Reimbursement at this rate shall be considered as full and complete payment for actual necessary expenses for the use of the private automobile, insurance, maintenance, and all other transportation-related costs. The Fire District does not provide any insurance for private automobiles used on Fire District business. The owner of an automobile is responsible for the personal liability and property damage insurance when the vehicle is used on Fire District business.
(2) When employees traveling on official Fire District business leave directly from their principal place of residence rather than from their assigned work location, mileage allowed to the first work contact point shall be the difference between the distance from the residence to the assigned work location and the distance from the residence to the first work contact point. If the first work contact point is closer than the assigned work location, no mileage shall be allowed. If the employee departs from the last work contact point directly to the residence, the same principle governs. Employees may have multiple assigned work locations. Mileage allowed is based on the assigned work location for that day. When employees have more than one assigned work location in a standard tour of duty, mileage shall be allowed between assigned work locations. In no case will mileage be allowed between the employee’s residence and the assigned work location.

For example, an employee who lives in Upland is stationed at an Ontario work location with a regular start time of 8:00 a.m. On a particular day the employee is assigned to work at an event in Redlands with a start time of 8:00 a.m. On the day the employee is assigned to the Redlands event, if the employee leaves directly from her Upland residence rather than her Ontario work location, the mileage allowed to the Redlands event shall be the difference between the distance from her Upland residence to the Ontario work location and the distance from her Upland residence to the Redlands event.
