PROJECT DESCRIPTION BACKGROUND Contra Costa County's Board of Supervisors has supported vehicle emission reduction and trip reduction programs by obtaining 13 alternative fuel vehicles and establishing a County coordinated car pool program. We are currently in the process of purchasing two new CNG vans for the commute pool and two electric jitneys for the hospital . County CNG vehicles are clearly designated as alternative fueled vehicles and are highly visible to the public because of their logos . We are requesting BAAQMD funding to help purchase four additional CNG vans . PROJECT OBJECTIVE Our objective is to reduce vehicle emissions by replacing four gas powered vans, with four CNG vans for use transporting clients, supplies and equipment countywide to various County Buildings . The gas vans we plan, to replace are 8, 15, 21 and 25 years old and have traveled 183,289; 155,010; 207, 759 and 158,706 miles respectively. Our request to replace four older vans with new CNG vans (instead of purchasing gas powered replacement vans) demonstrates our ongoing efforts and commitment to integrate alternative fueled vehicles into the County fleet. The County can contribute depreciation and salvage monies totalling $15, 853 toward the purchase of four CNG vans . We are requesting $44, 647 in BAAQMD funds to complete the purchase. IMPLEMENTATION Once funding is approved, the County will go out to bid following standard procedures . We estimate it will take six to eight months to obtain the new vans and place them into daily operation. III . INFORMATION FOR ESTIMATING EMISSIONS REDUCTION We propose to replace these vehicles with CNG vans . These vehicles are currently driven on city streets with occasional freeway use.
