Federal Government in model years 2004 through 2010 and thereafter.
    ``(b) Implementation.--In furtherance of such purposes, such 
Federal fleets in the aggregate shall reduce the purchase of petroleum-
based nonalternative fuels for such fleets beginning October 1, 2003, 
through September 30, 2009, from the amount purchased for such fleets 
over a comparable period since enactment of this Act, as determined by 
the Secretary, through the annual purchase, in accordance with section 
304, and the use of alternative fuels for the light-duty motor vehicles 
of such Federal fleets, so as to achieve levels which reflect total 
reliance by such fleets on the consumptive use of alternative fuels 
consistent with the provisions of section 303(b) of this Act. The 
Secretary shall, within 120 days after the enactment of this section, 
promulgate, in consultation with the Administrator of the General 
Services Administration and the Director of the Office of Management

                          TITLE V--CLEAN COAL

SEC. 501. SHORT TITLE.

    This title may be cited as the ``National Electricity and 
Environmental Improvement Act''.

SEC. 502. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) reliable, affordable, increasingly clean electricity 
        will continue to power the growing United States economy;
            (2) an increasing use of electrotechnologies, the desire 
        for continuous environmental improvement, a more competitive 
        electricity market, and concerns about rising energy prices add 
        importance to the need for reliable, affordable, increasingly 
        clean electricity;
            (3) coal, which, as of the date of enactment of this Act, 
        accounts for more than \1/2\ of all electricity generated in 
        the United States, is the most abundant fossil energy resource 
        of the United States;
            (4) coal comprises more than 85 percent of all fossil 
        resources in the United States and exists in quantities 
        sufficient to supply the United States for 250 years at current 
        usage rates;
            (5) investments in electricity generating facility 
        emissions control technology over the past 30 years have 
        reduced the aggregate emissions of pollutants from coal-based 
        generating facilities by 21 percent, even as coal use for 
        electricity generation has nearly tripled;
            (6) continuous improvement in efficiency and environmental 
        performance from electricity generating facilities would allow 
        continued use of coal and preserve less abundant energy 
        resources for other energy uses;
            (7) new methods and equipment for converting coal into 
        electricity can effectively eliminate health-threatening 
        emissions and improve efficiency by as much as 50 percent, but 
        initial deployment of new coal generation methods and equipment 
        entails significant risk that generators may be unable to 
        accept in a newly competitive electricity market; and
            (8) continued environmental improvement in coal-based 
        generation and increasing the production and supply of power 
        generation facilities with less air emissions, with the 
        ultimate goal of near-zero emissions, is important and 
        desirable.

requirements contained in the regulations of the Administrator set 
forth in section 80.102 of title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations 
relating to gasoline blendstocks are necessary to facilitate the 
movement of gasoline and gasoline feedstocks among different regions 
throughout the country and to improve the ability of petroleum refiners 
and importers to respond to regional gasoline shortages and prevent 
unreasonable short-term price increases. The Administrator shall take 
into consideration the extent to which such requirements have been, or 
will be, rendered unnecessary or inefficient by reason of subsequent 
environmental safeguards that were not in effect at the time the 
regulations in section 80.102 of title 40 of the Code of Federal 
Regulations were promulgated. The Administrator shall propose and take 
final action in such rulemaking to ensure that any modifications are 
effective and implemented at least 60 days prior to the beginning of 
the high ozone season for the year 2002.

(Reid Vapor Pressure), oxygenated fuel, diesel fuel and other 
requirements that vary from State to State, region to region, or 
locality to locality. The study shall analyze--
            (1) the effect of the variety of such requirements on the 
        price of motor vehicle fuels to the consumer;
            (2) the availability and affordability of motor vehicle 
        fuels in different States and localities;
            (3) the effect of Federal, State, and local regulations, 
        including multiple fuel requirements, on domestic refineries 
        and the fuel distribution system;
            (4) the effect of such requirements on local, regional, and 
        national air quality requirements and goals;
            (5) the effect of such requirements on vehicle emissions;
            (6) the feasibility of developing national or regional fuel 
        specifications for the contiguous United States that would--
                    (A) enhance flexibility in the fuel distribution 
                infrastructure and improve fuel fungibility;
                    (B) reduce price volatility and costs to consumers 
                and producers;
                    (C) meet local, regional, and national air quality 
                requirements and goals; and
                    (D) provide increased gasoline market liquidity; 
                and
            (7) the extent to which the Environmental Protection 
        Agency's Tier II requirements for conventional gasoline may 
        achieve in future years the same or similar air quality results 
        as State reformulated gasoline programs and State programs 
        regarding gasoline volatility (RVP).
    (b) Report.--By December 31, 2001, the Administrator of the 
Environmental Protection Agency and the Secretary of Energy shall 
submit a report to the Congress containing the results of the study 
conducted under subsection (a). Such report shall contain 
recommendations for legislative and administrative actions that may be 
taken to simplify the national distribution system for motor vehicle 
fuel, make such system more cost-effective, and reduce the costs and 
increase the availability of motor vehicle fuel to the end user while 
meeting the requirements of the Clean Air Act. Such recommendations 
shall take into account the need to provide lead time for refinery and 
fuel distribution system modifications necessary to assure adequate 
fuel supply for all States.
