In accordance with House Bill 2551 the Secretary has increased the privately owned automobile mileage reimbursement rate to 33¢ per mile for travel taking place on, or after, July 1, 2001. The other rates remain unchanged. The rates as of July 1, 2001 will be:

16¢ per mile for privately owned motorcycle

33¢ per mile for privately owned automobile

44¢ per mile for privately owned airplane

44¢ per mile for privately owned specially equipped vehicle for the physically disabled
(Examples of specially equipped vehicles include, but are not limited to, those equipped with hand controls or lift devices. Other situations may be evaluated on a case-by-case basis if you are uncertain about the applicability of this rate.)

K.A.R. 1-18-1a provides that any state employee choosing to use a privately owned vehicle when a state-owned or leased vehicle is available shall be reimbursed at the central motor pool rate for compact cars. For FY 2002, this rate has been established at 26¢ per mile. The complete schedule of motor pool rates was distributed to all state agencies in a May 17, 2001 memorandum from the Central Motor Pool Director.
