The A to Z of AFVs

September 24, 2009

College of Southern Nevada




The A to Z of AFVs Forum was a wonderful success. Nearly 60 people participated, the most-well attended event ever hosted by the LVRCCC. The attendees rated the Forum extremely high, giving it an overall score of 9.1 out of 10.0. A few of the comments include:

"Do it again."

"I really thought your organization put together a very informative and helpful workshop that should go a long way to promote the use of cleaner fuels in Clark County."

"I enjoyed hearing from people that are knowledgeable in the field."

"I like the combination of technical, practical and policy information."
