Transportation Equipment Fund - Department of Transportation

The Transportation Equipment Fund (TEF) is a revolving fund that provides equipment and related services to department programs. State statute (RCW 47.08.120) gives the department the authority to operate TEF, a non-appropriated, proprietary, internal service program that charges rent to department programs for the use of equipment. The fund provides vehicles and equipment, comprising over 14,000 units, to WSDOT programs to accomplish their missions. The TEF office is responsible for purchasing, maintaining, fueling, logistically supporting and disposing of the department’s vehicles and equipment, including the department's statewide wireless communications equipment. TEF owns and operates 125 vehicle-fueling stations and 34 vehicle and communications service and repair facilities throughout the state.
