Motor vehicle alternative fuel use plan to be developed by departmentof natural resources--powers and duties--state agency fleets offifteen or more vehicles, time table for using alternative fuels.
414.410. 1. The director shall develop a motor vehicle alternativefuel use plan. The director shall cooperate with state agency fleetoperators, vehicle manufacturers and converters, fuel distributors andothers to identify the types of vehicles which could be converted toalternative fuels. The director shall consider range, specialty uses, fuelavailability, vehicle cost, vehicle manufacturing and conversioncapability, safety, resale values, and other relevant factors.
2. The department shall recommend alternative fuels which stateagencies and state universities may consider when purchasing vehicles. Thedepartment shall consider the content of vehicle exhaust emissions, therelative efficiency of the fuel, the relative efficiency of the processesrequired to produce the fuel and the characteristics of air emissionsassociated with the production of that fuel. It shall recommend for stateuse those alternative fuels which best satisfy the goals of energyconservation and emissions reduction.
3. Any state agency which operates a fleet of more than fifteen motorvehicles shall acquire vehicles capable of using alternative fuels asfollows:
(1) At least ten percent of the agency's fleet vehicles acquiredbetween July 1, 1994, and July 1, 1996;
(2) At least thirty percent of the agency's fleet vehicles acquiredbetween July 1, 1996, and July 1, 1998; and
(3) At least fifty percent of the agency's fleet vehicles acquiredbetween July 1, 1998, and July 1, 2000, and each biennial periodthereafter.
If a state agency exceeds any such biennial acquisition goal, or haspurchased vehicles capable of using alternative fuels before July l, 1994,such purchases may be credited to any future biennial acquisition goal. Ifa state agency has purchased vehicles capable of using alternative fuelsbut not included in their vehicle fleet as defined in subsection 1 ofsection 414.400, such purchases may be credited toward any biennialacquisition goal. If a state agency fails to meet a biennial acquisitiongoal, the commissioner of administration shall not authorize for suchagency the purchase of any vehicle not capable of using alternative fuelsuntil such acquisition goal is met, unless the director has reduced orwaived the acquisition goal pursuant to subsection 1 of section 414.412.
