Summary:
|
In 2015-16 Tesoro Refining and Marketing LLC (Tesoro) approached the District regarding a $1 million grant to purchase natural gas fueled buses. This grant came about through the suit brought by the United States of America, The State of Alaska, The State of Hawaii, and the Northwest Clean Air Agency as Plaintiffs and Tesoro Refining & Marketing Company, LLC, Tesoro Alaska Company LLC, Tesoro Logistics, L.P., and Par Hawaii Refining, LLC as Defendants.
A condition of this lawsuit settlement was that Tesoro make grants such as this one which involves replacement of conventional diesel school buses with more efficient and eco-friendly natural gas.
Over the past few months discussions have occurred between Tesoro representative and Larry Schoenke, General Council and Wayne Oetken, Interim Chief Business Officer which has resulted in the School Bus Replacement Mitigation Project Contract which is attached for consideration of the Board. This grant is clearly in the best interest of the District and will result in retirement of 4 buses from the fleet which are very old with extremely high mileage.
Staff has and will again express appreciation to Tesoro for this grant.
