The handbook focuses on three effective road-vehicle fuel-conservation programs that State and local governments can do now with minimal expenditure of time and money. These programs are: ridesharing, driver energy awareness, and the Voluntary Truck and Bus Fuel Economy program. These programs are described and, whenever possible, draw on the experience and published material of a number of State energy offices, the Transportation Systems Utilization office at the US Department of Energy, and the Department of Transportation Heavy Duty Vehicle Research office. Wherever possible, summaries of effective State and private sector initiatives in the three programs listed are included as examples of what has been accomplished already. (ERA citation 04:053399)
