Partnership objectives include the increased awareness among local, state and federal policymakers regarding the use and benefits of NGVs. Simultaneously, we will work to promote future advancements in vehicle
and fueling technologies to further reduce emissions. Specifically, the Partnership is working diligently to:

• Encourage Air Pollution Control Districts (APCDs) in California as well as other states to adopt fleet rules.

• Develop and launch an NGV information campaign focusing on emission, health and energy-security benefits, and targeting California legislature and state agencies.

• Lead state and federal legislative efforts to create funding for advanced technology development and implementation.

• Inform APCDs about the benefits of mobile-station credit trading programs.
  
  

With the rising cost of petroleum-based gasoline and diesel fuel, tougher emission standards and the growing public demand for better environmental policies, natural gas vehicles provide an attractive alternative with
a multitude of key advantages.
