The Biden administration says the grant will support agriculture and lineworker training.
Commerce Secretary and former Rhode Island Gov. Gina Raimondo announced this week that $1.7 million in federal money will go toward a new classroom facility off Highway 14 at the Richwood Valley campus of Ozarks Technical Community College.
Raimondo called it part of President Biden’s agenda for “Investing in America.” The federal funding will be matched with $3.1 million in local money.
"We’re calling this our ag-tricity building because it is going to house our agriculture and electrical distribution systems programs," says Mark Miller, an OTC spokesperson.
