More lump pork: trolley ride, interactive water, etc.
By AFP | July 30, 2008
Yesterday and Friday, our Pork Projects of the Day were grants given to state agencies from DCEO (another state agency). The money used in those grants was in turn used to fund pork projects. Today’s Pork Project of the day is another one of those interagency grants. In 2006, the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity awarded a $6,446,977.70 grant to the Illinois Department of Natural Resources so that DNR could award grants for things such as “the installation of interactive water features” and a “trolley ride.”
Acquiring further details of these projects will require the Pork Report to file FOIA requests with DNR, which we’re now doing.
