Given O&M comments about retrofits, any opportunities to get recycling credits for retiring diesel buses? Thank you (Jamee PGCPS Energy / Climate Change Action Plan Group)

What is your opinion of moving forward with the purchase an electrical bus, given the cost of the installation of charging infrastructure? Our fleet is made up of three diesel buses currently.

Can my organization get funded in 2 separate years out of the 5.

Yes, no restrictions for multiple awards

I was not in the first webinar. Please be careful with industry jargon and acronyms. We are not all transportation people.

Does anyone know what the EPA is doing with the Clean School Bus Waitlist?

Getting our Admin on board..

High cost of the electric bus, much higher than we are funded for buses. Second would be infrastructure.

I tried to explain it like " we can't just stick our toe in the water to see how it is- we need to do the thorough research, for a "jump in with both feet" approach...

To confirm, you are saying districts need to have po in by April, prior to (in NJ) when our district's budgets are due, therefore, unsure if the board's costs may or may not be place?

Is that sam.gov?

IT took 5 months!

yes, that is correct.

system award for management?

State Aid Management?

What is the funding % of the total cost of the vehicle and how much does an full sized electric bus cost?

SAM.GOV was a close second.

The % of bus cost covered changed mid stream due to parts shortages and bus cost.

What additional mechanic's training is required for electric buses that's offered by manufacturers? Do you have cost per mile maintenance?

How do we contact all of you?
