Missouri stands to receive more than $41 million, and Kansas more than $15 million, from the Volkswagen Environmental Mitigation Trust. This Trust will support projects that reduce NOx emissions across each state. Each state has proposed its initial plan for how the funds will be utilized. Now is the time to plan for your participation in the funding.
