To direct the Secretary of Transportation to update guidance for the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Formula Program to increase the flexibility of States related to the location of electric vehicle charging infrastructure, and for other purposes.

This bill updates federal guidance for the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Formula Program, allowing states to certify electric vehicle charging stations located more than one mile from highways as part of their infrastructure coverage. States must consider economic benefits for communities and small businesses along designated alternative fuel corridors when selecting these locations. The change increases flexibility for states in placing chargers outside highway corridors while still meeting program requirements. It directly affects states administering the federal EV charging program under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.
