Vehicle Rental on the P-Card

 

Out of State Travel Restrictions 

Effective immediately because of the current State financial condition which projects a $655 million deficit for the 2007-09 biennium, the Governor is imposing restrictions on out of state travel. Until further notice, all out of state travel must be pre-approved by the Provost in Academic Affairs or the Vice Chancellor in Student Affairs or Business Affairs, for personnel in those respective Divisions. This requirement applies to any out of state travel that has not yet taken place, including events where registrations and airline commitments have already been made. Restrictions apply regardless of the funding source. Pre-approval is also required for Fleet Vehicle use for out of state travel.
