Screenshots of Existing Clean School Bus (CSB) Rebate Application Form
The following photos are from the first prototype of the application form which is undergoing active
development. Improved descriptions of fields, autofilling functionality, help text, and more will be added
over the next month. The application form is the first of three forms that EPA will collect for the Clean
School Bus Rebates. The purchase order form and close-out form will be provided to awarded applicants
in a similar online format that will minimize burden by relying, where possible, on existing data
submitted in this application form.
