Sec.  1310.23  Coordinated transportation.

    (a) Each agency providing transportation services must make 
reasonable efforts to coordinate transportation resources with other 
human services agencies in its community in order to control costs and 
to improve the quality and the availability of transportation services.
    (b) At a minimum, the agency must:
    (1) identify the true costs of providing transportation in order to 
knowledgeably compare the costs of providing transportation directly 
versus contracting for the service;
    (2) explore the option of participating in any coordinated public or 
private transportation systems existing in the community; and
    (3) where no coordinated public or private non-profit transportation 
system exists in the community, make every effort to identify other 
human services agencies also providing transportation services and, 
where reasonable, to participate in the establishment of a local 
transportation coordinating council.
