Mingo National Wildlife Refuge will get about $2.8 million for a new visitors’ center. The Neosho Fish Hatchery is on target for $1 million. Also set to receive funds are both Squaw and Great Rivers National Wildlife Refuges.

(JS Comment: Whatever you think of the Recovery Act, it’s good to see that some of the recovery money is going to fish, forests, wildlife, parks and federal cleanup projects in more rural areas, and not all of it is staying in the big city.)
