The school system's diesel costs have more than
doubled in four years, from 3.6 million in
fiscal 2005 to a projected 7.9 million for
fiscal 2009, which begins next month. A

NATURAL GAS IS CLEANER THAN DIESEL FUEL

Union of Concerned Scientists
Diesel is inherently dirtier than natural gas.
Numerous studies have linked diesel exhaust with
cancer, asthma, bronchitis, and other respiratory
illnesses. There have been no studies linking
natural gas combustion and cancer.

10 VERY GOOD REASONS TO CHOOSE NATURAL GAS TRUCKS
BUSES

• Diesel prices have fallen from historic highs but
  are likely to head north again.
• Natural gas prices are substantially lower than
  diesel prices and more stable. The Energy
  Information Agency predicts that the spread in
  prices between natural gas and diesel will
  continue to grow.
• New natural gas engine technology provides
  comparable performance and efficiency to diesel
  engines.
• Hybrid electric trucks still require diesel fuel.

15
10 VERY GOOD REASONS TO CHOOSE NATURAL GAS TRUCKS
BUSES

• 5. Diesel engines require extensive modification
  to achieve new EPA emission standards. With these
  add-ons, diesel engines are less efficient, more
  difficult to service and more expensive to
  purchase.
• 6. Natural gas engines do not require any
  expensive exhaust treatment to meet 2010 EPA
  emission standards.
• 7. Strategies to reduce emissions from older
  diesel trucks now include the option of
  repowering the trucks with new natural gas
  engines.

10 VERY GOOD REASONS TO CHOOSE NATURAL GAS TRUCKS
BUSES

• 8. Funding is available to cut engine replacement
  costs by 50 or more including up to a Federal
  32,000 tax credit (non-taxable entities can also
  benefit).
• There are companies willing to build, without
  upfront cost, on-site fueling stations for large
  fleets.
• Fleets can be green, stabilize their fuel costs
  AND provide environmental benefit to their
  employees and the communities they serve.

The ESI Engine Technology

• NEW natural gas engine utilizes original
  International diesel engine block design
• The engine appearance is very similar to the
  diesel pistons, rings, injectors, spark plugs,
  head and electronics are the primary
  modifications
• No changes required to transmission, cooling
  system, axle ratios
