Any dealers/AHS people should look into this. The rebate program the EPA has set up for diesel school buses. This is teh way to the EPA's heart (and wallet).

Here is the text of the email I received:

EPA Clean Diesel News: 11/6/12

EPA's National Clean Diesel Campaign (NCDC) will begin accepting applications for a new rebate program on November 13, 2012. An important change in the Diesel Emissions Reduction Act (DERA) reauthorization was to allow EPA to award rebates. This first year of rebates will be a pilot program focusing on the replacement of older school buses in both public and private fleets. The total funding for this opportunity will be approximately $2 million. To learn more about the rebate program, applicant eligibility and selection process, please visit www.epa.gov/cleandiesel/dera-rebate.htm.

EPA will collect rebate applications from November 13 to December 14, 2012. Applicants may submit only one application for up to five buses, and applications may be downloaded from www.epa.gov/cleandiesel/dera-rebate.htm. Completed application packages should be emailed to cleandieselrebate@epa.gov with the subject line "DERA School Bus Rebate Application." A full informational guide about the rebate program and application process is available online at http://epa.gov/cleandiesel/documents/420r12029.pdf

EPA will offer a webinar to interested applicants on November 15, 2012, at 2pm EST. The link for the webinar is https://epa.connectsolutions.com/schoolbusrebates/. EPA will use a conference call line as well: 866-299-3188, code: 3327333#.

Questions about the rebate program should be sent to cleandieselrebate@epa.gov.
