    ADVANCED TRANSIT VEHICLE CONSORTIUM Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority One Santa Fe Ave., MS 63-4-1, Los Angeles, CA 90013 SEPTEMBER 14, 2016 TO: BOARD OF DIRECTORS FROM: JAMES T. GALLAGHER PRESIDENT SUBJECT: RECEIVE AND FILE UPDATE ON ZERO EMISSION BUS PLANS ISSUE At the April 2016 Metro Board of Directors Meeting, Metro's CEO was asked to provide a status report on Metro's deployment plans for Zero Emission Buses, and to provide a comprehensive plan to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions by gradually transitioning to a zero emission bus fleet. BACKGROUND Metro's current deployment plan for Zero Emission Buses (ZEB's) and reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions(GHG) includes the following projects and activities: 1. Purchase of five (5) New Flyer all-electric articulated buses for deployment on Metro's Orange Line with expected delivery in late 2017. 2. Purchase of five (5) BYD all-electric articulated buses, also for use on Metro's Orange Line with expected delivery in late 2017. 3. Purchase of up to two hundred (200)ZE buses under RFP OP28167 for delivery between FY18 — FY22. 4. Expand use of Low NOx "Near Zero" CNG engines and Renewable Natural Gas (RCNG)for all new bus purchases and for mid-life engine repowers stating in FY18. In addition to the ZEB projects, starting in FY18 it is recommended that Metro Operations adopt a policy of purchasing only "Near Zero" Cummins-Westport Low NOx ISL-G engines and renewable natural gas(RCNG) fuel for both new and repowered buses. According to the fleet emission modeling done by Metro's technical consultant, this step will have significant regional air quality benefits, including reducing criteria pollutants for Metro's bus fleet by 90%, and greenhouse gas emissions by 80°/o below 2010 current fleet emission levels.
