Development of Guidance for Alternative Fuel Vehicles and Fueling Infrastructure Deployment Under the Clean School Bus Funding Programs is sponsored by Environmental Protection Agency.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is planning a new funding opportunity under the Clean School Bus (CSB) Program to encourage broad participation and fleet turnover by providing school districts with greater choice in school bus technology while strengthening oversight and compliance.
To support the development of this new funding opportunity, the EPA invites public comments to inform the Agency's understanding of the availability of alternative fuels and associated technologies in the medium- and heavy-duty school bus sector. The EPA is committed to ensuring that all technologies covered by the definition of "clean school bus" in 42 U.S.C. 16091(a)(3) are included in a new funding opportunity later this year.
In addition to seeking information on available alternative fuels and buses for the upcoming funding opportunity, the EPA is also seeking information from the public on additional ways the Agency can further safeguard taxpayer dollars. The EPA conducted a programmatic review of the previous CSB funding rounds and identified areas for enhanced controls.
The EPA is interested in identifying additional ways to prevent waste, fraud, and abuse within the CSB Program and is requesting comment to ensure that the Agency has the most comprehensive information available regarding robust oversight and compliance.
