TITLE 40--PROTECTION OF ENVIRONMENT
CHAPTER I--ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY (CONTINUED)
PART 88--CLEAN-FUEL VEHICLES--Table of Contents
Subpart C--Clean-Fuel Fleet Program
Sec. 88.313-93 Incentives for the purchase of Inherently Low-Emission Vehicles.
(a) Administration. (1) The incentives granted to ILEVs provided in
this section are not effective outside of nonattainment areas for which
states are required to establish CFFV programs under section 246 of the
CAA, unless specifically added by states for qualifying vehicles.
(2) Incentives for purchasing ILEVs shall not be transferred between
vehicles within the same fleet nor shall they be sold or traded.
(3) No vehicle over 26,000 pounds (11,800 kilograms) GVWR shall be
eligible for the following ILEV incentives.
(b) Exemption from temporal TCMs. A fleet vehicle which has been
certified and labeled as an ILEV according to the provisions of this
section and which continues to be in compliance with applicable
emissions standards and other ILEV program requirements shall be
exempted from TCMs existing for air quality reasons included in approved
state implementation plans which restrict vehicle usage based primarily
on temporal considerations, such as time-of-day and day-of-week
exemptions.
(c) Exemption from high-occupancy vehicle lane restrictions. (1) A
fleet vehicle which has been certified and labeled as an ILEV according
to the provisions of Secs. 88.311 and 88.312 and which continues to be
in compliance with applicable emissions standards and other ILEV program
requirements shall be exempt from TCMs which restrict a vehicle's access
to certain roadway lanes based on the number of occupants in that
vehicle, usually known as high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes. These
exemptions shall not apply if they would create a clear and direct
safety hazard.
[[Page 36]]
(2) In a state containing a covered area, or areas, the governor may
petition the Administrator for a waiver from the exemption from HOV lane
restrictions for ILEVs for any section of HOV lane in the covered
area(s) that can be shown to be congested primarily due to the operation
or projected operation of ILEVs. The waiver application shall
demonstrate the infeasibility of other means of alleviating HOV/CAV lane
congestion, such as adding an additional HOV/CAV lane, further
increasing vehicle occupancy requirements and reducing the use of the
lane by noneligible vehicles.
