Seeking feedback

Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) is asking for feedback regarding how the state should spend federal grant funds to improve Indiana’s air quality.

IDEM received a $3 million initial grant from the United States Environmental Protection Agency to conduct a greenhouse gas emissions inventory and develop a plan, and may be eligible to apply for additional funding to implement strategies.

At on.IN.gov/cprg, Hoosiers can find an overview of the grant and other details as well as a link to a survey regarding how the funds should be spent.
