DESCRIPTION:THE PURPOSE OF THIS AWARD IS TO PROVIDE FUNDING UNDER THE INFLATION REDUCTION ACT (IRA) TO NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION. THE RECIPIENT WILL IMPLEMENT GREENHOUSE GAS (GHG) REDUCTION PROGRAMS, POLICIES, PROJECTS, AND MEASURES IDENTIFIED IN A PRIORITY CLIMATE ACTION PLAN (PCAP) DEVELOPED UNDER A CLIMATE POLLUTION REDUCTION GRANTS (CPRG) PLANNING GRANT. ACTIVITIES CONDUCTED THROUGH THIS GRANT WILL BENEFIT ALL RESIDENTS AND VISITORS TO STATES OF NEW JERSEY, MARYLAND, DELAWARE, AND CONNECTICUT THROUGH FOUR MAIN OBJECTIVES: IMPLEMENTATION OF AMBITIOUS MEASURES THAT WILL ACHIEVE SIGNIFICANT CUMULATIVE GHG REDUCTIONS BY 2030 AND BEYOND; PURSUIT OF MEASURES THAT WILL ACHIEVE SUBSTANTIAL COMMUNITY BENEFITS, PARTICULARLY IN LOW-INCOME AND DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES; COMPLEMENTING OTHER FUNDING SOURCES TO MAXIMIZE THESE GHG REDUCTIONS AND COMMUNITY BENEFITS; AND, PURSUIT OF INNOVATIVE POLICIES AND PROGRAMS THAT ARE REPLICABLE AND CAN BE 'SCALED UP' ACROSS MULTIPLE JURISDICTIONS. THIS PROJECT PROPOSAL AIMS TO SUPPORT THE ADOPTION OF COMMERCIAL ZERO-EMISSION MEDIUM - AND HEAVY-DUTY VEHICLES (ZE-MHDVS) TO REDUCE GHG EMISSIONS. THE INITIATIVE WILL PROVIDE FUNDING TO DEVELOP FREIGHT TRUCK CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE SITES, OFFER TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO SITE HOSTS, ENGAGE WITH COMMUNITIES, AND ENHANCE REGIONAL PLANNING AND COORDINATION OF ZE-MHDV INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENTS TO FACILITATE MARKET TRANSFORMATION. THE FOCUS WILL BE ON SPECIFIC FREIGHT CORRIDOR SEGMENT INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENT. THE COALITION COMPROMISES THE NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION (NJ DEP) AS LEAD APPLICANT, AND SUBRECIPIENTS CONNECTICUT DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION (CT DEEP), DELAWARE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION (DELDOT), MARYLAND DEPARTMENT OF THE ENVIRONMENT (MDE), AND MARYLAND DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION (MDOT).ACTIVITIES:IN GENERAL, THE ACTIVITIES ARE TO REDUCE CLIMATE POLLUTION. SPECIFIC ACTIVITIES INCLUDE: - PUBLIC MEDIUM AND HEAVY-DUTY ELECTRIC CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE SITE DEVELOPMENT FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF CHARGING SITES FOR ZERO-EMISSION FREIGHT TRUCKS ZERO EMISSION MEDIUM AND HEAVY DUTY VEHICLES INSTALLED AT DISCREET SITES ALONG I-95 CORRIDOR THROUGH THE STATES OF NEW JERSEY, MARYLAND, DELAWARE, AND CONNECTICUT. - WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT - WORKERS, INCLUDING FROM LOW-INCOME AND DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES, WILL BE TRAINED IN THE CONSTRUCTION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF MEDIUM AND HEAVY-DUTY VEHICLE CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE FOR A SKILLED WORKFORCE. WORKERS WILL BE CAPABLE OF SAFELY AND EFFICIENTLY BUILDING THE MEDIUM AND HEAVY-DUTY ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDED TO MEET VEHICLE ELECTRIFICATION GOALS IN NEW JERSEY, MARYLAND, DELAWARE, AND CONNECTICUT. SUBRECIPIENT:AWARDS AND SUB-AWARDS FOR SITE SELECTION DESIGN, AND CONSTRUCTION | THE COALITION MEMBERS HAVE AGREED THAT THE LEAD, NJ DEP, WILL SUBAWARD FUNDS TO EACH STATE SO THAT EACH STATE CAN INDEPENDENTLY PROCURE VENDORS TO SELECT, DESIGN, AND CONSTRUCT ZE-MHDV INFRASTRUCTURE. THE SUBAWARDS WERE CALCULATED USING THE RELATIVE EMISSIONS OF PM2.5 FROM ON-ROAD SOURCES IN THE COUNTIES OVERLAPPING THE CORRIDOR.OUTCOMES:KEY DELIVERABLES WILL BE PRODUCED AND SUBMITTED OVER THE COURSE OF THE FIVE-YEAR PROGRAM PERIOD, INCLUDING: - PUBLIC MEDIUM AND HEAVY-DUTY ELECTRIC CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE O EXPECTED OUTCOMES: #61607; GHG EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS: CO2E THROUGH 2030 AND CO2E REDUCTIONS THROUGH 2050. #61607; CRITERIA AIR POLLUTANT (CAP) EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS: REDUCTION OF NOX, VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUND (VOC), AND PM2.5 IN 2030. #61607; AIR QUALITY IMPROVEMENTS FOR THE COMMUNITIES ADJACENT TO THE CORRIDOR, INCLUDING LOW-INCOME AND DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES, RESULTING IN REDUCED ASTHMA RATES AND REDUCED PREMATURE DEATHS. #61607; INVESTMENTS IN THESE PROJECTS CREATING THE EQUIVALENT OF OVER 423 JOB-YEARS AS A DIRECT AND INDIRECT RESULT OF THE PROPOSED GRANT. - WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT O EXPECTED OUT
