WHAT IS THE SMARTWAY TRANSPORT PARTNERSHIP?
Launched in 2003, the SmartWay Transport Partnership is a public/private collaboration between the EPA
and the freight industry to improve fuel efficiency, increase environmental performance, and encourage
supply chain sustainability.
Six types of freight transport companies can join SmartWay.

emissions, and
Allow partners to track fuel-efficiency and emissions reductions.
SmartWay ranks Partners' efficiency and environmental performance based on the information reported in
the tools and recognizes superior performance through the SmartWay Excellence Awards and the
SmartWay High Performers list.
WHY DO AIR FREIGHT CARRIERS JOIN THE SMARTWAY TRANSPORT PARTNERSHIP?
The SmartWay Transport Partnership provides Air Freight Carriers with ways to reduce the environmental
impact of their freight operations and address costs. Designed with and for the freight sector, the SmartWay
Transport Partnership delivers solutions to marketplace needs and challenges. With access to the latest in
EPA-tested technologies and peer-provided success stories, carriers that join the SmartWay Transport
Partnership can gain a better understanding of their environmental footprint and assert their corporate
Additionally, SmartWay Partners are associated with an internationally recognized and respected brand that
symbolizes cleaner, more efficient transportation choices.
Shippers that join SmartWay move significant amounts of freight with SmartWay Carriers. The higher
efficiency of SmartWay carriers compared to non-SmartWay carriers gives SmartWay Air Freight Carriers an
opportunity to improve corporate freight efficiency, reduce their carbon footprint, and voluntarily advance
freight sustainability for themselves and their customers.

SmartWay provides Air Freight Carriers with free Tools that help assess and compare various freight
transportation options with detailed reports and analyses that support better business decision making.
HOW DO AIR FREIGHT CARRIERS JOIN THE SMARTWAY TRANSPORT PARTNERSHIP?
Air Freight Carriers join SmartWay by submitting a SmartWay Air Tool (hereafter known as the "Air Tool," or
simply, the "Tool")
Air Carriers that submit tools that are approved by EPA are known as "SmartWay Air Carrier Partners."
When an air freight carrier submits an Air Tool to EPA, they agree to the requirements stipulated in the
SmartWay Partnership Annual Agreement for Carriers--notably, that they will measure and report the
emissions performance of their company annually and provide supporting documentation to EPA upon
request.
SmartWay Air Freight Carriers agree to complete and submit the SmartWay Air Tool to:
^ define fleet composition
characterize company activity
individually benchmark multiple fleets
track annual changes in performance
Upon approval of an Air Tool submission, an aircraft company will be identified as a SmartWay Air Carrier
Partner on EPA's website, on the SmartWay Partner List, and in a database used to identify companies that
meet SmartWay's annual requirements. The carrier will also receive information on how to access its current
SmartWay Registration Document.
HOW DO I JOIN IF MY PARENT COMPANY HAS MULTIPLE FLEETS?
Companies that join the SmartWay Partnership should include all of their fleets in their submission. If a
company wishes to list multiple fleets in the Air Tool, they should list these fleets as their customers hire
them. Internal fleets invisible to a customer should not be listed separately. Companies will be listed at the
Company level in the SmartWay Partner list on the SmartWay website, and each individually defined fleet
will appear as a separate entity in the SmartWay Carrier Data file that customers use to identify which fleets
they do business with in the Shipper and/or Logistics Tools.
Smart Way highly recommends de veloping your list of fleets before beginning your data entry

process. Any fleet that a shipper or logistics company could hire directly should be listed as a
separate fleet in your Air Tool submission. The best strategy is to have a clear idea of how to
define your companies before filling out the Tool.
To participate in SmartWay, air freight carriers need to gather the following essential information to complete
the Air Tool:
The official company name EXACTLY as you would like it presented on the EPA website and other
EPA communications
Company contact information
^ Contact details for your Working Contact
Contact details for an Executive, Sustainability and/or Other Contact(s) (Executive cannot be the
same as the Working Contact)
Percent split between US/Canada operations
A comprehensive list of fleets, including fleet details, such as:
¦ Fleet type (dedicated freight, mixed operations, or passenger)
¦ Service area (international, national, or regional)
¦ Revenue category
¦ Total number of aircraft
Aircraft inventory information including aircraft and engine makes/models
Aircraft operations data including:
¦ Fuel type and consumption levels
¦ Miles and ton-miles traveled
¦ LTOs and hours of operation
Data source descriptions
^ SmartWay ID number (if this is not your first toolsubmission)
This data should be provided for your company's fleets. This data reflects the amount of freight carried by
each carrier, the distance that freight is carried, and the fuel consumed to carry the freight.

V- A Working Contact for any questions about your company's participation and Toolsubmissions. The
Working Contact is the individual designated by the Executive Contact to directly interface with
SmartWay regarding specific tasks involved in the timely submission of the Tool. The Working
Contact is responsible for coordinating the assembly of information to complete/update fleet data;
completing and updating the Tool itself; maintaining direct communication with SmartWay; and
keeping interested parties within the company apprised of relevant developments with SmartWay.

SmartWay/EPA to their preferred list of trusted sources.)
An Executive Contact: the Executive Contact is the company executive who is responsible for
agreeing to the requirements in the SmartWay Partnership Annual Agreement, overseeing the
Working Contact (as appropriate), and ensuring the timely submission of the Tool to SmartWay. The
Executive Contact also represents the company at awards/recognition events. This person should be
a Vice President or higher-level representative for the company.
V- A SustainabiLity Contact (optional): the Sustainability Contact is the individual assigned
responsibility for monitoring the company's environmental performance. The Sustainability Contact

The Air Tool tracks fleet-level operations. Most carriers will only need to create one fleet.
If you have multiple fleets that can be hired by customers individually, you should create multiple fleet
records in the Tool and characterize their operations individually. You should not include internal company
fleet definitions or designations—only separate fleets as they would be identified and hired by your
customers.
There are two screens in the Fleet Description(s) section of the Tool:
^ Fleet Identification: For each fleet that a customer can hire, you will be asked to establish names for
each of your fleets. Each Fleet Name will begin with your Partner Name and will include a Fleet Identifier.
Use a Fleet Identifier that is recognizable by yourcustomers.
Fleet Details: For each fleet, you will be asked to identify the fleet type, identify the fleet's service area,
select an appropriate revenue category, provide the total number of aircraft, and identify if it is an
"internal use only" fleet.3
To complete the Fleet Identification tab:

2. Confirm that the Partner Name that appears automatically is correct and appropriate for your fleet. If
not, make changes in the field under the heading "Partner Name."

business is associated with shipments of cargo. If 25% or less of a partner's business is associated
with shipments of cargo then they are considered primarily passenger service. Airlines where cargo
shipments are less than 75 % and greater than 25 % of their business are considered mixed service
providers.

To begin, enter the number of aircraft in the "# of Aircraft" column to reflect the total number of aircraft for
the given set of aircraft/engine make and model characteristics. The total number of aircraft entered on this
screen must equal the total number specified for this fleet on the Fleet Details screen.
Keep in mind that you do not have to input a line for every single aircraft -- only for every aircraft/engine
combination. So, for example, if you have 25 Boeing 747-400S with Pratt and Whitney PW 40621 turbo fans,
you may enter all the information for these 25 aircraft on one line.
After entering the number of aircraft for each row, select the appropriate aircraft make using the drop-down
menu. Upon selection, the available aircraft model and series options for that make will appear in the next
drop-down menu. Similarly, after specifying model and series, available engine makes and models will
appear in the next drop-down menu.
The Air Tool includes over 2,900 possible aircraft/engine combinations. If you do not see your specific
aircraft/engine combination, please note this in the comment section (by selecting the Add Comments
button) and then select the aircraft/engine combination that most closely resembles yours.
The Air Tool will automatically populate the number of engines associated with an airframe as well as
approximations of the weight capacities per aircraft where available. (If no value is provided, use your best
estimates). Weight capacity reflects total passenger, luggage, and cargo weight. As airframe configurations
can vary significantly, you should revise the weight capacity estimates with information on your specific fleet.
For passenger aircraft, in your estimate be sure to include the weight associated with passengers, not just
the cargo hold. For the weight capacity, use the FAA assumption of 220 pounds per passenger (which
includes the weight of the passenger and luggage), and an additional 110 pounds per seat (or per passenger
if the number of seats is unknown) to account for the weight of structures and systems to accommodate the
passengers.4 Note that you must then exclude luggage from the cargo component so that it is not double
counted.
Finally, enter the average engine load during cruise as a percent (between 0 and 100). If you do not know the
average cruising engine load a default value of 70% may be used.
To add more data-entry rows, select the Add More Rows button. After selecting this button, you will be
prompted to enter the number of rows to add.
To delete a given row, check the corresponding box in the Delete column and click the Delete Checked
Rows button.

For each row on the Aircraft Operations screen, provide the requested operational information. If a row
represents a group of aircraft, rather than a single aircraft, the data must reflect the total annual activity for
the entire group, unless otherwise specified. For each row, you will be asked to provide the following:
1. Fuel Type - For each aircraft type, select the correct fuel type (Aviation Gasoline or Jet Fuel). Future
versions of the tool may include various grades of jet fuel as well as Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF).
2. Total Annual Fuel Usage - Provide the total annual fuel usage for the aircraft included in the aircraft
type for that row.
3. Fuel Units - Identify which units the fuel usage is supplied in (Tons or Gallons).
4. Total Annual Miles Traveled - Provide the total number of miles traveled by all the aircraft included
in the aircraft type for that row.
5. Total Annual Ton-Miles - Enter the total ton-miles transported during the reporting year for all
aircraft in the given make/model grouping. A ton-mile is one ton of freight moving one mile.
NOTE: DO NOT ESTIMATE TON-MILES BY SIMPLY MULTIPLYING TOTAL MILES BY TOTAL TON -
this calculation effectively assumes your entire tonnage is transported on EACH AND EVERY aircraft
and will clearly overstate your ton-miles.
There are two ways to calculate your ton-miles:
a. Companies can determine their average payload per aircraft grouping, multiply the average
payload by the total miles per aircraft group, and sum the results for all flights for the reporting
year; or
¦ _ . _ (total mi per group x total tons per group)
b, Set Ton-miles per aircraft qroup = —-— —-——
total # of flights per group
To check your data, divide ton-miles by miles. The result is your group-average aircraft payload. If this
number is not reasonable, check your calculations.
6. Total Annual LTOs - Enter the total number of LTOs for this aircraft grouping for the reporting year.
One LTO cycle includes the approach, landing, taxi in, idling, taxi out, take off and climb-out.
7. Total Annual Hours of Operation - Enter the total annual hours of operation for this aircraft grouping
for the reporting year. This value includes the flight time as well as time spent idling and taxiing to
and from gates.
8. To proceed, select the Efficiency Utilization tab at the top, or simply select the NEXT button at the
bottom of the screen.

Viewing the Efficiency Utilization Screen
The Efficiency Utilization screen displays a summary of the average payload utilization for each of your
aircraft types. The calculated weight utilization values should be less than 100%. If any payload information
was left blank, "N/A" will appear for that entry. If the calculated values do not look reasonable please revise
the entries on the Aircraft Inventory and Aircraft Operations screens, then return to this screen to view the
revised utilization estimates.
To proceed, select the Data Source Description tab at the top, or simply select the NEXT button at the
bottom of the screen.
Completing The Data Source Description Screen
Provide a detailed description of the data sources for the fleet inventory and operational data entered on the
previous screens. Some of the aircraft characteristics and operation data should be readily available from
Partner records such as the number of aircraft, fuel usage, kilometers traveled, utilization rates, and
operations. Aircraft make/model and engine manufacture/model is provided by the aircraft supplier (leasing
company if the aircraft is being leased, or manufacturer if participant owns the aircraft). The aircraft supplier
can also be helpful providing data on the payload capacity of the aircraft. Alternatively, payload capacity can
also be obtained from the Department of Transportation's Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) T-100
dataset as summarized above. The T-100 dataset is also a data source for LTO data. Note the T-100 data are
provided to the FAA by the air carriers. An aircraft's flight plans can also be a data source for hours of
operation and LTOs.
