As of December 4, 2008, the State Comptroller’s Office has made changes to the State Travel Guidelines that will affect how reimbursements are calculated. The changes are as follows:
Mileage can be calculated and claimed in one of three ways.
o Using the State Mileage Guide
o Using actual odometer readings from the traveler’s vehicle
o Using MapQuest internet mapping service specifically. No other internet mapping site will be accepted.
If a rate for a particular duty point is not listed on the federal rate schedule, the rate that is listed for the nearest city or county to the duty point will be used. This will replace the Median Rate Rule.
