Home Safety Environmental Federal Use of Alternative Fueled Vehicles Federal Register Vol. 58, No. 77 Friday, April 23, 1993 Presidential Documents By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United State of America, including the Energy Policy and Conservation Act, as amended (42 U.S.C. 6201 et seq.), the Motor Vehicle Information and Cost Savings Act, as amended (15 U.S.C. 1901 et seq.), the Energy Policy Act of 1992 (Public Law 102-486), and section 301 of title 3, United States Code, it is hereby ordered as follows: Section 1. Federal Leadership and Goals. The use of alternative fueled motor vehicles can, in some applications, substantially reduce pollutants in the atmosphere, create significant domestic economic activity and stimulate jobs creation, utilize domestic fuel sources as defined by the Energy Policy Act of 1992, and reduce vehicle maintenance costs. Moreover, Federal action can provide a significant market impetus for the development and manufacture of alternative fueled vehicles, and for the expansion of the fueling infrastructure necessary to support large numbers of privately owned alternative fueled vehicles. The Federal Government can exercise leadership in the use of alternative fueled vehicles. To that end, each agency shall adopt aggressive plans to substantially exceed the alternative fueled vehicle purchase requirements established by the Energy Policy Act of 1992.

Massport began converting its Logan-based shuttle buses in 1995 and now all of Massport's fleet of 33 airport shuttle buses operate using CNG. Logan is also home to the region's largest CNG filling station. Massport has worked closely with environmental agencies and airport tenants to encourage airport companies to convert their Logan fleets to alternative fuels. In 2001, Massport was hailed as an "AFV Hero" at the Opening Plenary Session of the Annual Clean Cities Symposium in Philadelphia. In July 2003, Massport’s CNG Shuttle Bus Program was named the “Concept Most Likely to Reduce Emissions” at the First Annual ALT Wheels Festival, New England's first alternative transportation festival. The CNG buses are an integral part of Massport's aggressive alternative fuel program and are used to transport passengers between Logan’s terminals, the MBTA station and Water Shuttle Dock.

Alternative Fueled Vehicles and Fuels Driving a car fueled by something other than gasoline or diesel fuel is no longer the stuff of science fiction. In addition to conventional gasoline and diesel fuel, reformulated - cleaner - gasoline and alternative fuels now are sold in many parts of the country. Alternative fuels such as methanol, ethanol, compressed natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, and electricity produce fewer tail pipe pollutants than conventional gasoline and diesel fuel. Using them could improve our air quality. In 1992, Congress passed the Energy Policy Act to promote the use of alternative fuels. For example, the law requires owners of fleet vehicles to purchase a certain number of alternative fueled vehicles. Congress also directed the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to issue labeling requirements for alternative fuels and alternative fueled vehicles. Two FTC Rules - the Alternative Fuels and Vehicles (AFV) Rule and the Fuel Rating Rule - require fuel dispensers and alternative fueled vehicles to be labeled with information to help consumers make knowledgeable decisions when it comes to filling up or buying a vehicle. The AFV Rule applies to new and used alternative fueled vehicles that are sold to consumers or leased to consumers for a minimum of 120 days.

Success Stories G reen vehicles, environmentally friendly cars, alternatively fueled vehicles, call them whatever you like, just pay attention to them as they are here to stay! Many people call them the wave of the future, however Henry Ford and and Rudolf Diesel would disagree. Alternatively fueled vehicles (AFVs) are not as new as you might think. Over 100 years ago, when Rudolf Diesel created his prototype diesel engine, he ran it on peanut oil and thought that all diesel engines would run on a variety of vegetable oils. When Henry Ford created the first Model T, he expected ethanol, a renewable fuel made from corn, to be the major fuel used. Due to the number of vehicles, the types of fuels we use, and the number of miles we drive, mobile sources (cars, trucks, etc.) are responsible for 45% of the smog produced in this area.

That's slower growth than the 8.4 increase from the 471,098 alternative-fueled vehicles in use from 2002 to 2003, said the Energy Department's analytical arm. The five states that had the most alternative-fueled vehicles last year were California (77,761), Texas (55,820), New York (37,559), Oklahoma (23,336) and Georgia (17,912). At the bottom of the list were Maine (417), Vermont (844), Rhode Island (936), West Virginia (1,098) and New Hampshire (1,218), EIA said.

40. Approaching Alternative-Fueled Vehicle Crashes - The Police Notebook" Described below are the key features and emergency approach procedures for five of the most common types of alternativefueled vehicles (AFV). http://www.ou.edu/oupd/altfuel.htm

The purpose of this brochure is to assist law enforcement officers, fire services, emergency medical service providers and other public safety personnel who arrive on the scene of an alternative-fueled vehicle crash. Emergency personnel must identify the specific type of fuel and secure the scene so rescue work can begin. They also need to know when to call for trained personnel equipped with proper protective gear for assistance. The goal is to protect the first arriving emergency responders, occupants of the vehicles, and bystanders at the scene. Described below are the key features and emergency approach procedures for five of the most common types of alternative-fueled vehicles (AFV). The first objective is to identify the specific type of alternative-fueled vehicle. Look for special fuel ports, distinctive profiles, and any written markings on the vehicle. Except for selected local areas, these vehicles are not required to be identified and there are no standardized placards, logos or symbols for the identification of each type of AFV as there are for railroad tank cars and trucks. We have included several examples of identifying symbols for each alternative-fueled vehicle, however, these symbols may vary in size and color. L IQUEFIED P ETROLEUM G AS (LPG) and C OMPRESSED N ATURAL G AS (CNG) Examples of identification symbols for LPG-fueled vehicles are: Examples of identification symbols for CNG-fueled vehicles are: LOCATING THE LPG OR CNG FUEL CONTAINERS In most LPG or CNG vehicles, containers will be found in the trunk area, under the side panel of a van or school bus, on the frame, or in the bed of a pick up truck. Expect a majority of the vehicles to be owned by a fleet service such as buses, taxi cabs, or utility companies.
