Wyoming has applied for $82 million in federal economic stimulus funding to cover expected shortfalls in education funding next year and to help build juvenile detention centers around the state.
Chris Boswell, chief of staff to Gov. Dave Freudenthal, said Friday that he expects to hear from federal officials about the application in the coming days. He said the state first submitted the application in late June and has amended it slightly since then.
