PurposeThe purpose of this policy is to establish guidelines pertaining to the purchase of fuel for UA owned vehicles PolicyOn-Campus Fuel PurchasesFleet Services purchases bulk unleaded fuel/diesel and operates two fueling locations for University use. Fuel sold at the UA locations is lower in price than outside vendors, and therefore the most fiscally responsible choice for fueling UA vehicles.
