ZERO-EMISSION TRANSIT BUS AND REFUELING TECHNOLOGIES AND DEPLOYMENT STATUS: A REVIEW ACROSS U.S. TRANSIT AGENCIES A Project Presented by AIKATERINI DELIALI Master of Science in Civil Engineering Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering University of Massachusetts Amherst, MA 01003 4/5/2018 iv ABSTRACT Globally there have been considerable efforts of decarbonizing the transportation sector, as it has been found to be largely responsible for greenhouse gases and other air pollutants. One strategy to achieving this is the implementation of zero-emission buses in transit fleets. This paper summarizes the characteristics of three zero-emission bus technologies: 1) battery electric buses; 2) fuel cell battery electric buses; and 3) fuel cell plug-in hybrid electric buses. All of these technologies do not produce tailpipe emission and can potentially be emission-free in a well-to-wheel content, depending on the fuel source.

  • Introduction
    Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 Introduction This document is a supplemental environmental impact report (SEIR), prepared in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Public Resources Code 21000 et seq.), and the State CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations 15000 et seq.) (referred to herein as CEQA Guidelines). CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines are referred to herein collectively as CEQA. This SEIR is a supplement to the BART Warm Springs Extension Environmental Impact Report that was certified on September 15, 1992. The SEIR is an informational document intended to inform the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District (BART) Board of Directors, public agencies, and the public about the potentially significant environmental effects that may result from implementation of the BART Warm Springs Extension (WSX) (herein called the Proposed Project). See Section 1.6 for an explanation of the relationship of this SEIR to the EIR certified in 1992. The environmental analysis incorporated herein identifies the environmental impacts of an extension of the BART system in the City of Fremont (Fremont), from its current terminus in central Fremont to the Warm Springs district of Fremont. Once certified, this SEIR will provide the basis for BART to adopt a project. This analysis will support the development of an effective mitigation program for site-specific mitigation of potentially significant environmental impacts, and provide information to interested members of the public and public agencies about modifications to the 1992 Adopted Project and various potential impacts resulting from the modified project. Through the formal public review process, the public and various organizations and agencies will have an opportunity to comment on this document.

  • Basques in the Americas from 1492 To1892: a Chronology
    Basques in the Americas From 1492 to1892: A Chronology “Spanish Conquistador” by Frederic Remington Stephen T. Bass Most Recent Addendum: May 2010 FOREWORD The Basques have been a successful minority for centuries, keeping their unique culture, physiology and language alive and distinct longer than any other Western European population. In addition, outside of the Basque homeland, their efforts in the development of the New World were instrumental in helping make the U.S., Mexico, Central and South America what they are today. Most history books, however, have generally referred to these early Basque adventurers either as Spanish or French. Rarely was the term “Basque” used to identify these pioneers. Recently, interested scholars have been much more definitive in their descriptions of the origins of these Argonauts. They have identified Basque fishermen, sailors, explorers, soldiers of fortune, settlers, clergymen, frontiersmen and politicians who were involved in the discovery and development of the Americas from before Columbus’ first voyage through colonization and beyond. This also includes generations of men and women of Basque descent born in these new lands. As examples, we now know that the first map to ever show the Americas was drawn by a Basque and that the first Thanksgiving meal shared in what was to become the United States was actually done so by Basques 25 years before the Pilgrims. We also now recognize that many familiar cities and features in the New World were named by early Basques. These facts and others are shared on the following pages in a chronological review of some, but by no means all, of the involvement and accomplishments of Basques in the exploration, development and settlement of the Americas.
