(b) Coordination: As much as practical, the Postmaster General must coordinate the Postal Service's alternative fueled vehicle* buying, placement, refueling, and maintenance programs with federal, state*, and local efforts. The Postmaster General must regularly share information about these programs with the Secretary*, the Administrator* of General Services, and relevant federal agency heads.
(c) Program criteria: In buying and placing alternative fueled vehicles, the Postmaster General must consider (1) state and local governments' and other institutions' procurement plans; (2) how available refueling and repair facilities currently are and will be; (3) how much this cuts the Postal fleet's emissions; (4) whether the vehicle will be used in a nonattainment area under the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990; (5) the Postal fleet's operational needs; and (6) how much this helps cut oil use in the transportation sector.
