Alternative Compliance Guidelines for Preparing and Submitting a Waiver Request Application and Other Documentation Requirements.


DE141136210

Publication Date 2014
Page Count 48
Abstract On March 20, 2007, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) issued its final rule (72 FR 12958) implementing an additional method--which Congress created in Section 703 of the Energy Policy Act of 2005--by which fleets covered under the Alternative Fuel Transportation Program (10 CFR Part 490) may achieve compliance with the programs requirements. The final rule and its associated regulations (Subpart I) enable covered state and alternative fuel provider fleets to obtain waivers from the alternative fuel vehicle (AFV)-acquisition requirements of Standard Compliance (subparts C and D). Under this additional compliance method, known as Alternative Compliance, covered fleets instead meet a petroleum-use reduction requirement. To assist covered fleets interested in taking advantage of this more flexible compliance option and facilitate the transition from Standard Compliance to Alternative Compliance, DOE has developed this guidance document and several interactive planning tools. Together, these resources are designed to help fleets better understand the Alternative Compliance option and successfully complete the waiver application process.
