Background Information:
In 2008 the Miami City Commission unanimously adopted MiPlan, the City of Miami's Climate

To reduce diesel emissions, improve air quality and public health, and promote alternatively fueled
vehicles, GSA applied for USEPA grant funding (CFDA 66.039). See attached press release
