Fuel Price Adjustment Decision Matrix
	Notes:
	1.  All Fuel price adjustments apply only to work performed between the FPA Guideline dates dependent upon the Project Fuel Price Adjustment Condition described in the guidance.
	2.  Use the Monthly Index Data provided by ODOT for the Blue Book Formula Operating Cost Calculations.  The Contract Base Price value is the fuel index value from the first publication month of the most current Blue Book for the effective equipment rate period. The Monthly Base Price value is the fuel index value for the month in which the equipment is used.  (Note:  The Blue Book is published semi-annually with updates to approximately half of the equipment in each publication.  So, use January of the effective Blue Book year for equipment updates in the first half and use July of the effective Blue Book year for equipment updates in the second half to establish the Cost Basis Index Value.)
