EPA Demo Projects
Building on the 2003 Clean School Bus USA demonstration grants program, Congress again allocated $5 million for school bus retrofit and replacement grants in 2004. EPA announced the selection of 20 projects for funding in June, 2004. The 2004 demonstration grants are funding a diverse set of demonstrations around the nation.
In addition, EPA is funding a school bus retrofit project in Chattanooga, Tennessee through a diesel retrofit program grant.
By retrofitting or replacing buses and/or substituting cleaner fuels, these 21 demonstration projects will affect close to 5,000 buses.
