From page 5... ... Assessing and Mitigating Future Impacts to the Federal Highway Trust Fund Such as Alternative Fuel Consumption NCHRP Project 19-05 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION AND RESEARCH APPROACH PROJECT STATEMENT 19-05, FY 2003 The Federal Highway Trust Fund provides funding for transportation improvements, including 100 percent of Federal funding for highway improvements and about 60 to 70 percent of Federal funding for transit improvements. The major funding source for the Highway Trust Fund is the Federal tax on motor fuels. Read the entire page →
From page 6... ... Assessing and Mitigating Future Impacts to the Federal Highway Trust Fund Such as Alternative Fuel Consumption NCHRP Project 19-05 2000. For each increment of 1.0 billion gallons in the consumption of gasohol, the Highway Trust Fund will forego $78 million in revenue. Read the entire page →
From page 7... ... Assessing and Mitigating Future Impacts to the Federal Highway Trust Fund Such as Alternative Fuel Consumption NCHRP Project 19-05 4. Develop recommendations. Read the entire page →
From page 8... ... Assessing and Mitigating Future Impacts to the Federal Highway Trust Fund Such as Alternative Fuel Consumption NCHRP Project 19-05 Task 3 – Forecast Future Use of Alternative Fuels and Fuel Consumption Impacts of Other Factors The team utilized the available DOE model systems to evaluate the scenarios as described qualitatively in the first two tasks, and identify them as medium to high probability. The focus was on evaluating the parameters that will matter the most to the estimates of revenues as a result of alternative fuel use and of overall motor fuel consumption. Read the entire page →
