Wyoming and Idaho officials have been quietly meeting for months as part of a working group to target billions of dollars in federal funding for advanced nuclear projects to make the region a U.S. nuclear hub.
With its cutting-edge research facilities and innovative projects, the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) has become a key driver of the region's economy. The INL's activities in the field of nuclear energy and national security have not only made significant contributions, but have also had a continuous long-term impact on the construction market in Idaho.

Boxes have been packed and food distributed, but donations are still being accepted by the Friendly Fellow Club.
While the clubâs annual Christmastime assistance has already been given out for 2020, local residents can still give money to help as the club prepares for the 2021 portion of the program.
FFC officials have noted that applications are up 50% and distribution has increased, which also resulted in an increase in costs related to more boxes and also rising food costs, which means the club is in need of more donations to ensure they can meet their expenses.
Donations can be mailed to P.O. Box 325, Athens, TN 37371-0325 or can be made via credit/debit card or PayPal on the Friendly Fellow Club website, friendlyfellows.org, by clicking the Donate button at the bottom of the page.
