 Use of JAC Vehicles
This is a reminder to visitors, and staff, that the JAC policy does not permit official vehicles to be used for
private purposes. Recently vehicles have been spotted in the vicinity of the coast eruption site, which is a
round trip of over 100 miles from the JAC. Such jaunts are not only expensive in terms of wear and tear,
gas and so on, but the chances of damage to the vehicle or of being involved in an accident are increased.
In such cases the JAC will accept no responsibility.
With the prior approval of the Vehicle Scheduler (Carol), visiting observers may use the JAC vehicles for
'work-related' matters (eg: to meet a colleague at the airport or to obtain a meal immediately prior to
travelling up Mauna Kea). However, such use must be restricted to the boundaries of Hilo town only. This
information is contained in the Guidlines for Visitors.
JAC staff cannot approve use of vehicles for unofficial purposes. All such requests will be refused.
Observers should be aware that they will be held fully responsible for any damage or costs arising from any
accident or incident occuring through unauthorised use.
Any queries about this note or the policy should be referred to Derek McCall or Ian Midson.
