(b) Each state agency shall assign to the state-owned vehicles under its control all vehicle storage or parking space under its jurisdiction, or allocated to it by the Department of General Services. Each agency will report on all passenger vehicle storage space under its jurisdiction to the Department of General Services following procedures prescribed by the Department of General Services.

(c) Garage charges may be allowed for rental space for monthly storage of a state-owned vehicle in the vicinity of an employee's home.

At the discretion of the Department of General Services, any agency may be required to submit permits to it for final approval. For the purpose of enforcing this regulation, “frequently” is defined as storing a state-owned vehicle at an employee's home, or in the vicinity thereof, for more than 72 nights over a 12-month period or more than 36 nights over any three-month period.
