About this file

This is a Statement of Work (SOW) for Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) between DART (Dallas Area Rapid Transit) and an unnamed contractor for providing renewable natural gas to fuel DART's bus fleet. The document outlines a contract effective from 8/28/2025 through 2030, with the contractor committed to supplying approximately 1,076,300 MMBTU (9,432,695 Gasoline Gallon Equivalents) of RNG in 2026, with similar volumes projected for subsequent years. The contract requires the contractor to provide RNG from biomass sources through existing ATMOS Network pipelines, meeting specific gas quality and interconnect standards, and ensuring compliance with the Environmental Protection Agency's Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) program.

The compensation structure involves the contractor providing RNG environmental attributes at no cost and sharing revenues generated from Renewable Index Number (RIN) credits. DART will receive a "Dispensing Fee" equal to an agreed percentage of RIN revenues, payable monthly. The contractor must generate D3 RINs in EPA's Moderated Transaction System (EMTS), secure RNG sourcing pathway approval, and provide monthly RIN confirmations and account statements. The RNG will be dispensed across three DART bus fueling facilities located in East Dallas, Northwest Dallas, and South Oak Cliff, with peak fueling occurring between 7:00 p.m. and 4:30 a.m. daily.

1.0 General Information

This Statement of Work (SOW) describes the acceptance of renewable natural gas (RNG), or biogas, to blend with fossil-fuel derived natural gas at the Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) fueling stations which support DART’s bus fleet.

A. Introduction DART has a strong commitment to progressive clean fuel programs and seeks a partner to enhance its environmental initiatives and share the benefits. The Contractor will provide renewable natural gas for fueling DART’s transit buses.

B. Background

1. DART is committed to a sustainable future through the development and implementation of its Sustainability Policy. Through this commitment, renewable natural gas was introduced as a bus fuel in 2019. As DART moves forward with its bus replacement program, it will continue to purchase CNG buses.

2. The CNG fueling stations are operational twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven days per week, including holidays. Peak fueling at the three facilities are as follows:

a. Northwest, East Dallas and South Oak Cliff peak fueling period is from 7:00 p.m. to 4:30 a.m. daily.

C. Objectives

1. Secure a reliable supply of RNG (CNG-equivalent) to meet DART’s annual volume requirements.

2. Obtain and transfer on behalf of DART all D3 RINs generated by that RNG.

3. Ensure full Renewal Fuel Standard (RFS) compliance, accurate measurement and reporting, and transparent pricing.

4. Support DART’s sustainability goals and potential revenue from RIN monetization.

D. Scope

The Contractor shall provide to DART RNG environmental attributes at no cost and compensate DART through a share (or fixed rate) of revenues generated from the sale of resulting renewable fuel credits (RINs). The revenue mechanism is a “Dispensing Fee” to DART equal the agreed percent (%) of RIN Revenue, payable for each month of the Delivery Period.
