Alternative Fuel Transportation Program; Private and Local Government Fleet Determination
type: GovernmentService
description: The Department of Energy (DOE) is publishing this final rule pursuant to the Energy Policy Act of 1992 (EPAct). In this final rule, DOE announces that it is not adopting a regulatory requirement that owners and operators of certain private and local government fleets acquire alternative fueled vehicles. DOE's decision is based on its findings that such a requirement would not appreciably increase the percentage of alternative fuel and replacement fuel used by motor vehicles in the United States and thus would make no more than a negligible contribution to the achievement of the replacement fuel goals set forth in EPAct. As a result of these findings, DOE is precluded from promulgating a regulatory requirement for private and local government fleets because such a rule is not "necessary" within the meaning of EPAct. The findings and conclusions reached in this document are consistent with those proposed in DOE's March 4, 2003, notice of proposed rulemaking.
