OpportunityTitle: Clean Cities FY 09 Petroleum Reduction Technologies  Projects for Transportation Sector
Description: Area of Interest 3 (DE-PS26-09NT01236-03): Education and Outreach Workshops for Petroleum Reduction Fuels and Technologies Under this Area of Interest applications are being sought for projects that will raise awareness and foster a greater understanding of alternative fuels and advanced vehicle technologies through a targeted outreach and education effort. Educational information and materials developed under this award will be used to establish a special Clean Cities learning program. This effort will help to increase the alternative fuels market and decrease the nation&#191;s dependence on petroleum. In addition, it will help to provide the necessary specialized training and education necessary to ensure that these vehicles and related fueling equipment are installed, maintained, and operated in a safe and proper manner. This could include training for first responders, public safety officers, and construction permitting officials in areas where alternative fuels are being introduced, among other target audiences. Projects are sought that will contribute to a sustainable alternative fuel market by raising awareness of alternative fuels and related technologies and that exhibit the potential for future growth without additional Federal funding. Although applications will be considered that address individual subject areas of interest, it is strongly preferred that the lead applicant(s) represent a partnership among appropriate industry and trade groups that can adequately address multiple, if not all, subject areas of interest in a single application. Subtopic Areas consist: (3A) Biodiesel (3B) Ethanol (3C) Natural Gas and Propane and (3D) Fuel Economy Idle Reduction. No Cost Share is required for Area of Interest 3
