'''Clean Fuels Grant Program''' (CFGP) was a Department of Transportation initiative that offered discretionary grants through the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to transit agencies in over 90 designated ozone and carbon monoxide nonattainment or maintenance areas, funding the purchase of clean fuel buses and related infrastructure to reduce emissions and promote sustainable transit technologies. Initially established as a formula grant in 1998, it transitioned to discretionary funding in 2005 under SAFETEA-LU, supporting projects like hybrid electric bus purchases until its repeal in 2012 by MAP-21, with over $300 million allocated during its tenure, though no direct replacement program was named. | '''Clean Fuels Grant Program''' (CFGP) was a Department of Transportation initiative that offered discretionary grants through the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to transit agencies in over 90 designated ozone and carbon monoxide nonattainment or maintenance areas, funding the purchase of clean fuel buses and related infrastructure to reduce emissions and promote sustainable transit technologies.
