The following addendum to the MSRC's FY 2006-07 Local Government Match Program Announcement has been approved today:
SECTION III: PURCHASE OF HEAVY-DUTY ALTERNATIVE FUEL VEHICLES
The second bullet point under Qualifying Vehicles, page 17, is amended as follows:
The original language read: Vehicle engines must be certified at or below the California Air Resources Board Optional NOx + NMHC (NOx+NMHC) standard in effect at the time of contract execution.
The amended language reads: Heavy-duty alternative fuel vehicles equipped with Model Year 2006 engines must be certified at or below the California Air Resources Board Optional NOx + NMHC (NOx+NMHC) standard. Heavy-duty alternative fuel vehicles equipped with Model Year 2007 and later engines must have a CARB NOx certification at least 30% lower than the comparable diesel-fuel engine.
The Addendum, as well as the revised Program Announcement, can be accessed by visiting the MSRCs Clean Transportation Funding website at Proposal Process.
