STATEMENT OF WORK FOR
CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO
CONTRACTOR shall construct and operate a publicly accessible liquefied natural gas and
liquefied/compressed natural gas (LNG-L1CNG) fueling station. The fueling facility is at the
City of San Bernardino Municipal Service Yard, located at 182 South Sierra Way, San
Bernardino, California 92418. CONTRACTOR shall design and size the LNG-L1CNG fueling
station to meet CONTRACTOR's long-term needs as well as its other public/private partners.
The new station will be designed to accommodate residential and commercial refuse collection
vehicles as well as City and County vehicles.
CONTRACTOR agrees that the LNG-L1CNG station shall be publicly accessible to all
refuse fleets within the basin on a 24-hour per day, 7-day a week basis for the entire
term of Contract. CONTRACTOR agrees that the LNG-L1CNG station equipment shall
remain within the geographical boundaries of the AQMD for the term of this Contract.
The annual usage for the fleets that are committed to using this station is 285,000 diesel
gallon-equivalents (DGE) of natural gas by the end of the third full year of operation.
Installation of this site will encourage the use of CNG by providing critical fueling to
CNG fleets that establish arrangements for billing and proper training for individuals
refueling natural gas vehicles.
CONTRACTOR shall perform the following tasks:
Task 1 . Construction and Installation of Fueling Station
CONTRACTOR shall construct the LNG-L1CNG fueling station per the specifications in their
proposal dated March 4,2005, in response to RFP #P2004-09, released January 7,2005, and

CONTRACTOR's proposal, including but not limited to station components, will require written
approval by the AQMD Project Officer. This approval must be provided as supporting
documentation for any invoice requesting payment for station components that deviate from
those originally approved for AQMD funding.
The LNG-L1CNG station will consist of the following components:
. 15,000 gallon bulk tank
. 165 psig maximum allowable working pressure, insulated to achieve a normal
evaporative rate less than or equal to 0.5 percent per day
. LNG two-stage pump providing 95 psig minimum differential pressure at 60 GPM with a
submerged pump to eliminate need for a cool down period
. LNG single hose dispenser with an average flow rate of 25 to 50 GPM, with piping and
stub-ups to add one additional dispenser at a later date as demand dictates
. Mass metering with an accuracy of plus or minus 1.5 percent and a meter on each
pump/dispenser
. One CNG dual-hose dispenser(s) capable of dispensing CNG at both 3,000 and 3,600
psi

sequencing
Installation including, but not limited to, utility tie-ins, start-up, debugging and stabilizing the

AQMD Contract #
Date of Pnblication <as month year)
Project Title
Contractor
Prime contractor and significant subcontractors.
Cosponsors
List cosponsors from highest
contributor to lowest.
Project Officer
AQMD project manager name,
Background
This section is a brief introduction describing the
need for the technology andlor clean fuel, as
defined by rules and regulations / mandates of
AQMD, ARB, EPA, DOE, etc, If applicable,
describe other relevant factors, such as economic
issues, energy savings, etc.
Project Objective
This section should briefly describe the project
objectives as originally stated in the Board (or
EO) letter. If the objective evolved significantly
during the contracting procedure, it should be
noted how and why,
Technology Description
This section describes the general principles of
operation and emissions control approach of the
technology andlor clean fuel involved in the
project.
If applicable, discuss how the principle of
operation differs from other, currently available
equipment. This includes describing what the
"advancement" actually is over currently available
technologies,
Status
This section describes the status or progress of the
project. If the project was completed, provide the
date of completion and note that the final report is
on file with complete technical details of the
project. Describe major project events, such as
the development / testing / delivery of hardware (if
applicable), If the project was temlinated or
ended prematurely you still need to file this report,
Regardless of how it ended, per SB 199 you must
describe any unanticipated problems that were
encountered during the project, and how they were
(or were not) resolved, If "fatal" problems were
encountered, this section will be the heart of the
report, since it would be unlikely that major
benefits or emissions reductions were realized in a
temlinated project.
Picture of technology that has been supported
with AQMD/Technology Advancement
cosponsorship, if applicable. The picture,
preferably a photograph, should clearly illustrate
the technology, The size of the image should be
about 3x3 to fit this two column format. The
picture of the technology should be positioned on
the front page
Results
This section sununarizes all available emissions
results and key performance characteristics.
Performance is meant in the broadest terms,
including (as applicable) emissions, energy
efficiency, operation and maintenance
requirements, overall environmental impacts, and
performance tradeoffs. The primary emphasis of
this section is the presentation of project data,
Performance results should be summarized using
clear, graphical depictions whenever possible:
Graph or table summarizing key peiformance
characteristics. Graphs are preferred over tables
when possible. Graphical data presented should
show the most representative data of the
project 's/technology 's performance, One graph
would be preferred, but no more than two data
presentations in this document.
Measured performance is to be compared with the
objectives/goals set for the project. Comparisons
should focus on targeted emissions reductions
andlor other key performance goals (e.g. range for
electric vehicles).
There should also be a brief discussion of
performance tradeoffs. That is, did achieving one
performance characteristic goal, such as
emissions, compromise another perfonnance
characteristic, such as efficiency.
Ben efits
This section crystallizes the above-noted
performance characteristics into project benefits,
e.g., reduced emissions, increased efficiency,
reduced global warming gases, or other
environmental benefits. The potential emissions
inventory impact of this technology applied in the
South Coast Air Basin must be estimated based on
performance results of this project and some
estimate of market penetration (concisely state
assumptions).
It clearly describes how those actual benefits
compare with the benefits that were anticipated at
the project's start. Be as detailed as possible,
including discussion of overall environmental
impacts and benefits. Address the question of
whether the technology may reduce an air
pollutant while improving (or worsening)
problems with water pollution, solid waste, global
wanning, toxic emissions, etc.
Project Costs
This brief section describes the actual costs of the
program (AQMD's funding contribution as well as
the overall cost sharing) and how they compare
with the originally projected costs of the project as
stated in the Board (or EO) letter. Cost
information can be presented graphically, in a
table, or in paragraph form. This section does not
address cost effectiveness or cost of
commercialization.
Commercialization and Applications
This section describes the anticipated or potential
applications of the demonstrated technology
and/or clean fue\. If applicable, discuss follow on
projects to further improve the technology. If
available or applicable, discuss expected costs of
control and cost-effectiveness in the context of
currently available technologies. Cost data should
be noted as estimates or projections, especially
since T A projects are often "first of a kind."
Prospects for commercialization should include a
discussion of the potential size of the target or
primary market, and if there is another market
segment or application that could use the
technology. Discussion of the commercial status
of the technology should address questions such
as: (I) how close to a commercial product is it;
(2) what work remains to bring it to market; (3)
when could it be made commercially available and
competitive; and (4) what barriers remain before
the technology can be commercialized.
