Wash. Admin. Code § 468-602-010 - Authority and purpose

RCW 47.04.350 directs the Washington state department of transportation public-private partnership office to develop and maintain a program to support the deployment of clean alternative fuel vehicle charging and refueling infrastructure that is supported by private financing.

The program consists solely of projects that provide a benefit to the public through development, demonstration, deployment, maintenance, and operation of clean energy technologies that save energy and reduce energy costs, reduce harmful air emissions or otherwise increase energy independence for the state. The department refers to the program as the zero emission vehicle infrastructure partnerships (ZEVIP) program.

Program funds are invested in the deployment of electric vehicle charging and hydrogen refueling stations at key intervals along state and federal highway corridors to support interurban, interstate, and interregional travel for clean alternative fuel vehicles. Funds may be used as match to leverage federal funds for the sole purpose of installing, maintaining, and operating electric vehicle charging and hydrogen refueling infrastructure.
