Replacement costs for material and supplies consumed in eligible emergency/disaster work from the applicant's stock and rental costs of privately owned equipment used in emergency/disaster work are eligible costs. Rental costs cannot exceed the equipment rental rates published by the South Dakota department of transportation and accepted by the Associated General Contractors of South Dakota for force account work. Costs incurred for the operation of applicant-owned equipment in excess of normal operating costs, based upon the average of the past five years for fuel, lubricants, tires, and repairs and the costs of parts, material, and labor, other than regular time of employees, used in major repair or replacement of applicant-owned equipment damaged as a direct result of performing disaster work, are eligible costs. Costs of hand tools, personal equipment, and protective clothing; the purchase of equipment; charges for depreciation, insurance, storage, and similar fixed overhead costs; repairs and fuel for privately owned rental equipment, except where the rental agreement provides that the applicant will be responsible for such costs in addition to the rent; and state and local taxes on such equipment are ineligible costs.
