Dear

:

The Energy Information Administration (EIA) is pleased to announce that reporting for
the mandatory survey Form EIA-886 “Annual Survey of Alternative Fueled Vehicles”
for 2007 is online at https://eiaweb.inel.gov. This web-enabled reporting system is an
important component in the Federal Government’s collective efforts to promote an
electronic government that improves efficiency and customer service through the use of
information technology.
Form EIA-886 collects information from two distinct groups: 1) organizations that “make
available” alternative fueled vehicles (suppliers), and 2) organizations that use alternative
fueled vehicles (AFVs) and/or alternative transportation fuels (users).
Your organization was identified as a possible supplier and/or user of AFVs and has
therefore been granted access to the EIAWEB online reporting system to fulfill your
reporting obligation.
To access the system, follow these steps:
1.

An online help system and links to download the paper Form EIA-886 and Instructions
are available through the EIAWEB system. The information collected on this form by
the EIA will be used to provide Congress with a measure of the extent to which the
objectives of the Energy Policy Act of 1992 are being achieved.
Please provide the EIA-886 information to EIA by March 1, 2008.
If you do not have access to the Internet, please contact my assistant, Michelle Kirby at
(208) 526-4273 and the Form EIA-886 will be faxed or mailed to you. Thank you for
your cooperation.

Sincerely,
