NAFA Fleet Management Association has announced four newly accredited fleets via NAFA’s Sustainable Fleet Accreditation Program: the County of Ventura, CA, Kent Fire Department RFA of Kent, WA, the City of Austin, TX, and the University of California-Davis.
These fleets have successfully demonstrated that a credible sustainability plan is in place, and real, meaningful progress is being made toward reducing their total emissions and the negative environmental impact made by extraneous carbon fuel usage. The County of Ventura, Kent Fire Department RFA, the City of Austin, and University of California-Davis join an ever-growing list of NAFA-accredited fleets that are bringing positive action and quantifiable value to their organizations.
“These NAFA-accredited fleets set an example that many more fleets can follow, and will be honored and recognized further for their leadership,” said NAFA Chief Executive Officer Phillip E, Russo, CAE. “NAFA expects that with the program’s easy enrollment process, many more fleets will soon join them, bringing true and quantifiable sustainability improvements to their organizations.”
NAFA, in collaboration with CALSTART, will update attendees on the remarkable progress made by the Sustainable Fleet Accreditation Program during NAFA’s annual conference, the Institute & Expo (I&E), in Austin, Texas, April 19-22. The Sustainable Fleet Accreditation Program includes tools and metrics to concretely measure (and score) fleet progress in emissions reduction, fuel consumption, and increases in fuel efficiency.
NAFA’s roster of accredited fleets includes: Chesterfield County, Virginia; City of Boston Central Fleet Management; City of Chesapeake, VA; City of Minneapolis – Fleet Services Division; City of Sacramento, Fleet Management Division; County of Sonoma Fleet Operations; Florida Power & Light; Fleet & Surplus Services, Minnesota Department of Administration; Ontario Ministry of Transportation; Port Authority of New York and New Jersey; Time Warner Cable; University of Illinois – Facilities & Services; and Yale University.
