About this file

This Scope of Work document outlines the requirements for the Zero-Emission Bus (ZEB) Transition Plan Study contracted by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA). The project aims to evaluate the feasibility and requirements for transitioning OCTA's fleet to 100 percent zero-emission buses and associated infrastructure, updating the agency's 2020 ZEB Rollout Plan in alignment with current technologies and regulatory expectations. OCTA seeks consultant teams with demonstrated expertise in transit operations and service planning, zero-emission vehicle technologies (hydrogen fuel-cell and battery-electric), transit facilities and infrastructure, and transition planning from traditional fuels (CNG/unleaded) to zero-emission solutions. Consultants must also demonstrate familiarity with Orange County's geography and transportation trends, understanding of California Air Resources Board's (CARB) Innovative Clean Transit (ICT) regulation, and capacity to deliver the full study within an 18-month period. The project encompasses four primary tasks: project administration and management, stakeholder engagement, vehicle and fueling technology assessment, and draft and final reporting. Deliverables include monthly progress reports, stakeholder roundtable meetings (up to four), community outreach event participation (two events), technical assessment memos addressing fleet requirements, infrastructure feasibility, technology analysis, and operating costs, and a comprehensive final ZEB Transition and Rollout Plan with executive summary and presentation materials.

The scope of work details OCTA's current operational environment, including a fixed-route fleet of 442 buses (primarily CNG-fueled with ten hydrogen fuel-cell and ten battery-electric pilot buses) delivering 1.55 million annual revenue hours across 51 routes, and a paratransit fleet of 248 cutaway buses and contracted taxis operating 8.5 million annual miles. OCTA operates five maintenance and operations facilities across Orange County (Garden Grove, Anaheim, Irvine Sand Canyon, Santa Ana, and Irvine Construction Circle), all owned and maintained by the agency. The project must achieve full compliance with CARB's ICT regulation, which requires 25 percent of new bus purchases to be zero-emission by January 1, 2023, 50 percent by January 1, 2026, 100 percent of new purchases by January 1, 2029, and 100 percent of the entire fleet to be zero-emission by 2040. Consultant responsibilities include coordinating with diverse stakeholders (local jurisdictions, Caltrans District 12, Metrolink, community-based organizations, and OCTA advisory committees), providing technical assistance for outreach materials and surveys, conducting total cost of ownership analyses, developing implementation phasing plans with capital improvement schedules, and creating financial projections for the 20-year ZEB transition to support OCTA's Comprehensive Business Plan.

SCOPE OF WORK

ZERO-EMISSION BUS TRANSITION PLAN STUDY

INTRODUCTION

The Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) is initiating a comprehensive Zero- Emission Bus (ZEB) Transition Plan Study (ZEB Transition Plan/Project). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and requirements for transitioning to a 100 percent zero-emission fleet and associated infrastructure. This effort includes updating OCTA's Zero-Emission Bus Rollout Plan, originally completed in 2020, in alignment with new technologies and regulatory expectations.

To complete this work, OCTA is seeking proposals from Consultant teams with demonstrated expertise in:

• Transit operations and service planning

• Zero-emission vehicle technologies (hydrogen fuel-cell and battery-electric)

• Transit facilities and depot-based fueling/charging infrastructure

• Transition planning from traditional fuels (CNG/unleaded) to zero-emission solutions (hydrogen fuel-cell and battery-electric)

Additionally, Consultants must demonstrate:

• Familiarity with Orange County's geography and long-term transportation trends

• Understanding of the California Air Resources Board’s (CARB) Innovative Clean

Transit (ICT) regulation

• Capacity to deliver the full study and updated ZEB Rollout Plan within an 18-month period

Limitations on Governmental Decisions

Nothing contained in this scope of work permits Consultant’s personnel to authorize or direct any actions, votes, appoint any person, obligate, or commit OCTA to any course of action or enter into any contractual agreement on behalf of OCTA. In addition, Consultant’s personnel shall not provide information, an opinion, or a recommendation for the purpose of affecting a decision without significant intervening substantive review by OCTA personnel, counsel, and management.

BACKGROUND

The CARB ICT regulation required all large transit agencies in California to develop a Zero-Emission Bus Rollout Plan by July 1, 2020. OCTA met this requirement and the final report will be available to Consultant. The plan serves as a guide for upcoming vehicle and infrastructure investments. The regulation applies to a transit agency that owns, operates, leases, rents, or contracts with another entity to operate buses in California.

Large transit agencies, such as OCTA, must purchase or operate a minimum number of zero-emission 40-foot buses as determined by the following phasing schedule:

• By January 1, 2023: 25% of new bus purchases must be ZEBs

• By January 1, 2026: 50% of new bus purchases must be ZEBs

• By January 1, 2029: 100% of new bus purchases must be ZEBs

• By 2040: 100% of all transit fleets must be zero-emission

ZEB purchase requirements for sixty-foot buses and paratransit buses follow a modified schedule. Nevertheless, the regulation further requires that 100 percent of the fleet operated by an agency in revenue service must be zero-emission buses by 2040. In order to achieve this, OCTA needs to conduct a thorough assessment of its infrastructure for readiness.

The final regulation applicable to all vehicle sizes and ZEB Plan requirements can be found at the following link: https://www.arb.ca.gov/regact/2018/ict2018/res18- 60attacha.pdf.

ZEB Pilot Projects

OCTA has already made progress by launching ZEB pilot projects. These include ten hydrogen fuel-cell electric buses (FCEBs) and ten battery electric buses (BEBs) in active service. Supporting this demonstration are a hydrogen fueling station at the Santa Ana maintenance facility and battery charging infrastructure at the Garden Grove facility.

Facilities Overview

OCTA’s operations span five key facilities throughout Orange County. Directly operated fixed-route service is housed in Garden Grove and Santa Ana, while contracted fixed-route operations are based in Anaheim and Irvine. Paratransit service is managed from the Irvine Construction Circle facility. All these operating facilities are owned and maintained by OCTA. See Exhibit A for additional information on these facilities.

https://www.arb.ca.gov/regact/2018/ict2018/res18-60attacha.pdf https://www.arb.ca.gov/regact/2018/ict2018/res18-60attacha.pdf

Current Fleet Composition – Fixed-route Service

OCTA primarily operates a compressed natural gas (CNG) fleet and is currently piloting zero-emission bus technologies. For over five years, OCTA has been testing, in revenue service, a fleet of ten 40-foot FCEBs and ten 40-foot BEBs for about two years. OCTA has initiated a procurement for an additional 40 40-foot FCEBs and 10 40-foot BEBs. The composition of the current active fleet in 2025 is expected to consist of the following:

QTY Length Manufacturer Fuel Model Year Service

165 40’ Gillig CNG 2022 Fixed-Route

36 40’ Gillig CNG 2023 Fixed-Route

162 40’ New Flyer CNG 2016 Fixed-Route

OCTA Paratransit Service

OCTA also operates the OC ACCESS complementary ADA paratransit service. This service carries about 783,000 annual boarding and operates about 8.5 million miles annually.2 This service is operated and maintained under contract by MV Transportation.

The vehicles used for the service are a mix of 248 OCTA-owned cutaway buses and taxis sedan provided by contractors. The vehicles are currently fueled with unleaded gasoline.

OCTA completed a fleet analysis to determine the optimal fleet mix. This analysis proposed changes to the type/size of the buses needed based on demand (ACCESS trips completed). The analysis showed that OCTA has the opportunity to change the fleet mix to operate more efficiently. A copy of the final report will be provided to Consultant. OCTA also initiated a procurement for 10 battery electric vans to replace the traditional cutaway buses.
