The objective of this program is to ensure that the motor vehicle fuel, jet fuel, various use fuel, and diesel fuel taxes are administered equitably and effectively. Pursuant to the International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA), the BOE registers interstate truckers whose base is in California. Revenues from this program are used to construct and maintain public roads and mass transit systems, airports and waterways.
