In compliance with the Idaho Public Records Act and Governor Otter’s desire to make the process as transparent as possible, a list of all proposals submitted via the state Division of Financial Management (DFM) to be considered for stimulus funding under the federal American Recovery and Reinvestment Act now is available on the DFM Web site, http://dfm.idaho.gov, as “Idaho 2009 Stimulus Request” under “What’s New,” or you can link directly at http://dfm.idaho.gov/fed_stimulus.html.

 Governor Otter encourages all applicants to review the list to ensure their submission is included and accurately represented. Applicants with any questions may contact DFM at (208) 334-3900 during regular business hours. Media inquiries should be directed to Jon Hanian at (208) 334-2100.

 A separate state Web site will be established in the near future on which citizens will be able to track the allocation and use of all stimulus funding throughout the life of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. That Web address will be disseminated as soon as it is available.
