Federal energy grants may be hard to come by
March 18, 2009

The Federal economic-stimulus bill passed last month included $3.2 billion in grants for energy efficiency, some of which may be channeled to municipal water systems to aid in water-conservation projects. But that funding isn't likely to land in great measure in Iowa or Nebraska: Eligible cities must have either at least 35,000 residents or be among the ten largest in their given states. Iowa only has 13 cities of 35,000 people or more, and Nebraska has just four.
