Guidance for Federal Agencies on E.O. 13514 Section 12: Federal Fleet Management. Executive Order 13514. Federal Leadership in Environmental, Energy, and Economic Performance

摘要

Executive Order (E.O.) 13514, Federal Leadership in Environmental, Energy, and Economic Performance, signed on October 5, 2009, establishes 'an integrated strategy towards sustainability in the Federal Government and makes reduction of greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) a priority for Federal agencies.' E.O. 13514 sets the vision for Federal fleet management to lead by example to help 'create a clean energy economy that will increase our Nation's prosperity, promote energy security, protect the interests of taxpayers, and safeguard the health of our environment.' Federal fleets will reach this vision by reducing fleet GHG emissions through reduced petroleum consumption. E.O. 13514 establishes GHG and petroleum reduction requirements relevant to Federal fleet management, as outlined in Table ES-1. E.O. 13514 Sections 2(a), 8, and 9 of E.O. 13514 establish overall GHG emission reduction goals and associated planning, accounting, and reporting requirements, which includes GHG emissions from Federal fleets. Section 2(a)(iii) and Section 12 establish requirements that apply specifically to Federal fleet management.
