SUBJECT: Backup Statistical Data Compiled for DCT's Memorandum
to the GSA Administrator Regarding Reduction in
Usage of Federal Motor Vehicles
1. The purpose of this memorandum is to briefly summarize
for the record the sources of statistical data compiled for
measuring OL's progress in reducing fuel consumption. The
statistics shown apply only to OL-controlled or maintained
gasoline-powered vehicles in the Headquarters area.
a. Gasoline Consumption and miles driven:

A total of 19,341 less gallons of-gasoline were consumed
during the 1979-80 reporting period that in the same
period in 1978-79. This represents an approximate 10%
reduction in gasoline consumption. A total of 370,270
less miles were driven in the 1979-80 period than inn the
same period in 1978-79. This represents an approximate
17% decrease in mileage.

SUBJECT: Backup Statistical Data Compiled for DCI's Memorandum
to the GSA Administrator Regarding Reduction in Usage
of Federal Motor Vehicles
A total of 4,509 less gallons of gasoline were consumed
in the current projected reporting period as opposed to
the same period last year. This equates to a 9 1/2%
reduction in fuel consumption. A total of 13, ss
miles were driven in the current/projected reporting
period as against the same period last year. This
represents an approximate 3% decrease in mileage.
c. Gasoline consumption in trucking operations:
Reporting Period Component Gas Consumption
April '78 thru FTB/SD 17,525 Gallons
March '79
April '79 thru FTB/SD 10,156 Gallons
March 180
7,369 Gallons
A total of 7,369 less gallons of gasoline were consumed
during the 1979-80 reporting period than in the same
period in 1978-79. This represents a 42% decrease in
gasoline consumption. However, this 42% decrease could
prove deceptive since FTB/SD replaced two of its gasoline-
powered trucks with one diesel model in September 1979.
Thus the gas consumption figures from September 1979 on
reflect a total of 14 trucks, or two less than the 16
trucks reported in previous months.
d. Reimbursable POV mileage:
As attested to by the following figures furnished
by the Safety Branch/OS, which were initially supplied
by the OF, there is an obvious downward trend in
reimbursable mileage being paid for the use of POV's on
official business in the Headquarters area.
Calendar Year 1977: 2,722,984 miles reimbursed
1978: 1,688,327 miles reimbursed
1979: 1,490,393 miles reimbursed

SUBJECT: Backup Statistical Data Compiled for DCI's Memorandum
to the GSA Administrator Regarding Reduction in
Usage of Federal Motor Vehicles
These statistics reveal a sharp decline (45%) of POV
mileage over the past two years With this significant
reduction, it's reasonable to assume that Agency
Headquarters personnel are now becoming more dependent
on Agency furnished transportation to meet their official
needs.
e. Anticipated fuel savings from GSA leased vehicles:
A 36% fuel savings could be expected from the use
of GSA uel-e icient leased vehicles in lieu of POV's.
This projected fuel savings was quoted in a letter to
Mr. Peter Glading, Assistant Commissioner, Office of
Motor Equipment, GSA, Washington, DC, 20405 from the
Director of Logistics, dated 28. Janauary 1980. A copy
of this letter is attached which rationalizes and
supports this projected 32% savings.
f. Passenger movement:
The following data was provided by LSD and surprisingly
shows a 5% decrease in total passenger movement during the
current reporting period than in the previous reporting
period.
April 1978 thru March 1979 - 296,386 passengers
April 1979 thru March 1990 - 282.241 passengers,
