School transportation, such as zero-emission school buses and supporting charging infrastructure at any public school
Zero-emission lawn and garden equipment used - by schools or contractors - at schoolyards and sporting fields in disadvantaged communities
Composite wood products (including tables, desks, countertops, chairs, and storage cabinets) meeting NAF (no added formaldehyde) or ULEF (ultra-low emitting formaldehyde) standards used at schools in disadvantaged communities
Air filtration enhancement and replacement using new filters with MERV (minimum efficiency reporting value) of 14 or greater used at schools in disadvantaged communities
