  1. Vision-100 FAA Reauthorization (P.L. 108-176) Emission Reduction Provisionsfor Airports Office of Airports Community and Environmental Needs Division

  2. Voluntary Airport Low Emission Program Meet CAAregulations withclean technology Airport emission credits to spurearly action More Federal $$to improve air quality Greaterairport and project eligibility

  3. The Vision-100 Approach Use ‘best achievable’ EPA low emission standards Rely mainly on alternative domestic fuels Emphasize deployment of commercially viable technology Coordinate with Federal, State and local agencies

  4. Vision-100 Program is Based on the Inherently Low Emission Airport Vehicle (ILEAV) Pilot Program • JFK • LGA • ORD • SMF • SFO • BWI • DIA • ATL • DFW • BTR

  5. ILEAV 1,500 Vehicles Planned 50%Infrastructure 50% Vehicles 1/3 GAV 1/3 CNG 2/3Electric 1/3 GAV 2/3GSE

  6. National GSE Fleet is Approximately 72,000 Other 25% Airline-owned 75%

  7. Airline GSE by Fuel Type (~55,000 units with average age of 9.4 years)

  8. Areas of Expanded Project Eligibility from Pilot Program • National scope • Commercial service airports located in Nonattainment or Maintenance Areas (~150 of 510 airports, including most of busiest) • More alternative fuels • Also hybrids that meet low emission standards • Greater Federal share (75%-100%) • Infrastructure and facilities • Vehicles (incremental costs) Eligibility

  9. New Provisions EliminatePrevious Procedural Barriers(AIP Order 5100.38B) • Mobile sources not specified “…any construction, reconstruction, repair, improvement, or purchase of capital equipment for the airport.” • Early documentation hard to get “State implementation plans or other documentation shall be obtained to justify the project.” • Emission credits not guaranteed

  10. Four ‘legs’ of Vehicle Eligibility Airport dedicated Low emission standards Ownership conditions Allowable fuel types

  11. Best AchievableLow Emission Standards Viable commercial technology EPA standardsby vehicle class

  12. Eligible Infrastructure Examples • Conversions of airport power plants, generators, and other combustion sources to cleaner fuels Replaced by... Tanker Trucks Fuel Carts Fuel Hydrants Reduced by... Auxiliary Power Unit Pre-conditioned Air Ground Power

  13. Vehicles Must BeAirport Dedicated • Aircraft ground support equipment (GSE) • On-road vehicles… No cars, taxis super shuttles limousines Security vehicles Parking lot shuttles and buses

  14. Two Major AirportFunding Programs Airport Improvement Program (AIP)~$3 Billion/Year Funding $300 million for Noise & Air Quality 30% 70% Entitlements Passenger FacilityCharges (PFC)~$2 Billion/Year

  15. Eligibility by Funding Source • AIP • New vehicles • Airport-owned • Alternative fuels • PFC • New and retrofit vehicles • Airport and non-airport owned • Alternative and cleaner conventional fuels

  16. Funding Only With EPA/State Credit Guarantee • Emission credits to airports can be used to meet future requirements • General Conformity • New Source Review • Credit requirements • Nationally consistent approach • Provided on a timely basis • Based on existing CAA criteria: quantifiable, surplus, permanent, enforceable, SIP consistent • ILEAV projects credited retroactively Emissioncredits

  17. Program Guidance Emission Credits EPA FAA Airport emission credits to spur early action National Credit Guidance • All New AIP/PFC Eligibility Guidance and GSE Pilot Program Technical Report State & Local Air Quality Agencies Airports Organizations Documents Actions Airport Program Application Begins

  18. AIPGSE Retrofit Pilot Program • For GSE retrofits using conventional fuels • 10 commercial service airports in NA/MA • Each grant up to $500,000 • Selection criteria: • Cost effectiveness based on the remaining life of the vehicle • Only emission control technologies certified or verified by EPA • Priority for airport owned GSE • EPA/State assurance of emission credits

  19. Looking Ahead… Clean airaround airports • Federal and State coordination • EPA low emission standards • EPA/FAA airport emissions credit guidance • DOE alternative fuels information • Eligibility guidance • New EPA air quality standards • Cost-effectiveness (‘leading edge’ technology) • Public access to refueling stations • GSE retrofit pilot program • Modeling enhancements
