Common use of Vehicle Programs Clause in Contracts

Vehicle Programs. The Bureau of Air has implemented its Clean Fuel Fleets Program and will continue its programs addressing vapor recovery (Stage I, Stage II, and Tank Truck Certification). Although funding for the Alternate Fuels Rebate program had ended on June 30, 2002, funding was reinstated in July 2003. Illinois EPA will also continue operation of this program established pursuant to the Illinois Alternative Fuels Act, which is to encourage the use of alternative fuels in the state, partially through encouraging establishment of a refueling infrastructure. • Data Management - Data management is important to the Bureau of Air's ability to efficiently handle the vast amounts of data generated through permitting, inspections, inventory development, air quality planning, monitoring, and other programs. Data management is a program element that supports our efforts to attain the ozone standard and to maintain attainment with the other NAAQS. The Bureau of Air will submit ambient air quality data as required in 40 CFR Part 58. • ERMS Database Implementation - The Bureau of Air will continue to collect and maintain all relevant data, including HAP data, and thereby evaluate the performance of the program. • Annual Emissions Reporting - The Bureau of Air has revised the Annual Emission Report rules to encompass special ERMS reporting of HAPs, as well as other changes in reporting requirements since it was last amended. • Integrated Comprehensive Environmental Data Management System (ICEMAN) - We will continue to expand the capabilities of ICEMAN. Areas of importance include: extracting modeling-ready data, web access by the public to appropriate data and begin the process to receive annual emission reports electronically. • Agency Compliance and Enforcement System (ACES) - In cooperation with other parts of Illinois EPA, we expect to implement ACES at an Agency-wide level by July 2005.
