On Oct. 31, 2011, DOE published a notice in the Federal Register proposing to revise the allocation of marketable credits under DOE’s Alternative Fuel Transportation Program by including EISA-specified electric drive vehicles and investments in qualified alternative fuel infrastructure, nonroad equipment, and relevant emerging technologies. DOE is also proposing modifications to the use of Program credits, revisions to the exemption process, clarifications of the Alternative Compliance option, and several technical and other amendments intended to make the Program regulations more clear.
Comments on the proposal are due December 30, 2011.
