Johnson County Signs CMAQ Reimbursement Request

Johnson County Road & Bridge Supervisor Scott Pehringer requested approval from the county commission for Chairman Bill Novotny to sign the Reimbursement Request for Congestion Mitigation Air Quality (CMAQ) funds from the Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT).

The funding was applied for and awarded in 2021 and was used for dust abatement projects on county roads this past spring.

Pehringer explained at the time that the total amount of the county’s projects was to be $533,000 with the county’s 20% contribution being roughly $107,000 with the amount requested from the state at roughly $426,000 which was the amount requested for the reimbursement.
