Federal Grant Requested

Federal funding is being sought to implement some of the measures identified that could offset the impact of job loss at the Boise mill in International Falls.

Koochiching County Commissioner Wade Paveleck says its key to accomplishing the goals of a job recovery team with the city.

The exact dollar figure requested is still to be determined.

Pavleck says they hope to have better idea of the how much by the time they complete an application in time for Friday's deadline.
