New York City And Lower Hudson Valley Clean Communities Inc

THE BRONX IS BREATHING: REIMAGINING A CLEANER HUNTS POINT THIS PROJECT SEEKS TO COLLABORATIVELY DESIGN A HUNTS POINT ELECTRIFICATION ROADMAP WHICH WILL GUIDE THE INSTALLATION OF EVSE ACROSS THE NEIGHBORHOOD. IN ADDITION TO THE ROADMAP, THE PROJECT TEAM WILL UNDERTAKE AN EXTENSIVE SUITE OF COMMUNITY OUTREACH ACTIVITIES DESIGNED TO BREAK DOWN THE KNOWLEDGE BARRIERS PREVENTING MORE EV ADOPTION IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. THESE ACTIVITIES WILL INCLUDE RIDE-AND-DRIVES WITH EVS—BOTH FOR HUNTS POINT RESIDENTS AND FOR FLEETS—COMMUNITY LISTENING SESSIONS, AND MORE. THE PROJECT WILL ALSO EXPAND ON THE PLANNED RECHARGE HUB, A MULTI-MODAL EV CHARGING HUB TO BE SITED ON A BROWNFIELD SITE WITHIN THE HUNTS POINT PRODUCE MARKET.

OUTCOMES:THE ANTICIPATED DELIVERABLES INCLUDE THE REPLACEMENT OF EXISTING NON-ROAD GROUND SUPPORT EQUIPMENT (GSES) WITH ELECTRIC GROUND SUPPORT EQUIPMENT (EGSES), ENGAGE WITH AFFECTED COMMUNITIES, CREATE A BROADER-BASED ENVIRONMENTAL/AIR QUALITY PLAN, SUPPORT OTHER CLEAN DIESEL COALITIONS BY SHARING INFORMATION, ENGAGING OTHER INTERESTED FLEETS, AND ADDRESSING SPECIFIC GEOGRAPHIC NEEDS, AND CREATE A POINT OF CONTACT FOR COMMUNITY ISSUES AND COMPLAINTS. SOME OF THE EXPECTED OUTCOMES INCLUDE CRITERIA EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS, IMPROVED AMBIENT AIR QUALITY, REDUCTION IN GALLONS OF DIESEL FUEL USED, DEMONSTRATION AND DEPLOYMENT OF ZERO AND NEAR ZERO EMISSION VEHICLES AND ENGINES, COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND PARTNERSHIP, AND INCREASED PUBLIC AWARENESS OF PROJECT AND RESULTS. THE INTENDED BENEFICIARIES INCLUDE EMPIRE CLEAN CITIES, DELTA AIRLINES, THE PORT AUTHORITY OF NEW YORK AND NEW JERSEY, COMMUNITIES SURROUNDING THE JFP AIRPORT, AND CALSTART.

SUSTAINABLE LAST MILE DELIVERY IN DENSE METROPOLITAN AREAS THE PROJECT WILL DEPLOY NEW ELECTRIC CARGO TRIKE TECHNOLOGY IN LOWER MANHATTAN TO DEMONSTRATE HOW MANHATTAN BEER, ONE OF THE NEW YORK METROPOLITAN AREA’S LARGEST LAST-MILE DELIVERY COMPANIES, CAN USE THIS NEW TECHNOLOGY TO DEVELOP A SAFE, RELIABLE, COST EFFECTIVE AND SUSTAINABLE DELIVERY MODEL FOR BEER, AND SPIRITS IN LOWER MANHATTAN.

DESCRIPTION:THIS AGREEMENT WILL PROVIDE ASSISTANCE TO NEW YORK CITY AND LOWER HUDSON VALLEY CLEAN CITIES REDUCE DIESEL EMISSIONS AT THE HUNTS POINT MARKET IN THE BRONX, NY THROUGH THE REPLACEMENT OF DIESEL TRANSPORT REFRIGERATION UNITS (TRUS) WITH ELECTRIC MODELS. ACTIVITIES:THIS AGREEMENT WILL FUND 19 ELECTRIC-POWERED TRANSPORT REFRIGERATION UNITS AND ASSOCIATED ELECTRIC INFRASTRUCTURE INSTALLATION AT THE HUNTS POINT PRODUCE MARKET IN THE BRONX, NEW YORK. THE ELECTRIFIED UNITS WILL REPLACE DIESEL POWERED UNITS. THE BENEFICIARIES WILL BE THE FLEET PARTNERS (NATHEL AND NATHEL AND D'ARRIGO BROS.), WHICH WILL RECEIVE ELECTRIFIED TRUS AND ELECTRIFIED PARKING SPACES AT THEIR HUNTS POINT PRODUCE MARKET FACILITIES. THE AGREEMENT WILL ALSO FUND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND OUTREACH ACTIVITIES TO INCREASE AWARENESS ABOUT THE BENEFITS OF TRANSITIONING TO ZERO-EMISSIONS VEHICLES.SUBRECIPIENT:NO SUBAWARDS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS ASSISTANCE AGREEMENT.OUTCOMES:THE DELIVERABLES INCLUDE THE INSTALLATION OF 19 ELECTRIC-POWERED TRANSPORT REFRIGERATION UNITS AND INSTALLATION OF ELECTRICAL INFRASTRUCTURE, INCLUDING THE ELECTRIFIED PARKING SPACES TO ALLOW FOR THE UNITS TO BE PLUGGED IN WHILE AT THE WAREHOUSES AT HUNTS POINT PRODUCE MARKET; DEVELOPMENT OF MATERIALS AND OUTREACH TO RAISE AWARENESS AMONG COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND TRUCKING FLEETS OF THE ECONOMIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS OF TRANSITIONING TO ZERO EMISSIONS TRANSPORT REFRIGERATION UNITS. OUTCOMES INCLUDE A REDUCTION IN ANNUAL EMISSIONS OF 28 TONS OF FINE PARTICULATE MATTER AND 31 TONS OF NOX. THESE EMISSION REDUCTIONS ARE EXTENDED OVER THE LONG TERM AS WELL BY EXPANDING THE LIFETIME OF TRANSPORT REFRIGERATION UNITS BY 10 YEARS. OTHER OUTCOMES INCLUDE DECREASED PUBLIC HEALTH RISK FROM AIR POLLUTION AND ACCELERATED MARKET ACCEPTANCE OF ZERO EMISSIONS TECHNOLOGY.
