Administrator Lisa P. Jackson said the agency will reconsider the
ozone standard to ensure that it is clearly grounded in science, will
protect public health with an adequate margin of safety, and that it
is sufficient to protect the environment. The ozone standards set in
2008 were not as protective as recommended by EPA's panel of science

Despite the fact that Central Oklahoma's ozone levels have decreased
in the past 10 years, adherence to the new federal standard will be
very difficult based on projections for 2010. In fact, our 2010 ozone

Department and UPS were recipients of the 2009 Zach D. Taylor, Jr.
Clean Cities Vision Awards for regional alternative fuels leadership.
One public sector award and one private sector award is given each
year. Today, the Oklahoma City General Services Department operates or
maintains a fleet of 57 dedicated compressed natural gas vehicles
including 29 of its own, and 28 operated by other city departments.
General Services also purchases fuel for the city departments it serves
and last year fueled some 272 pieces of mobile equipment with B20-blend
biodiesel. Biodiesel is used in city owned light-duty diesel vehicles,
heavy-duty trucks, construction equipment, and forklifts. In the last
year, UPS has deployed 125 new, clean-burning, CNG package vans in the
Central Oklahoma region replacing an equal number of older model,
high-mileage, conventional fuel delivery vehicles. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
