Welcome to the daily304 – your window into Wonderful, Almost Heaven, West Virginia.   Today is Thursday, Oct. 3, 2024  A new grant initiative provides opportunities for Appalachian communities in West Virginia…three West Virginia Schools receive National Blue Ribbon status…and WVU helps develop a commercial property listing search to encourage development on former mine lands…on today's daily304. #1 – From ARC.GOV –  Appalachia's regional economic growth relies on local ability to prioritize challenges and implement solutions. However, capacity is often lacking at the individual, organizational, or community levels to do so. READY Grants to Grow is a $9 million funding opportunity that will award grants of up to $500,000 to organizations seeking to build individual, organizational and/or community capacity across the region. Any organization that is eligible to apply for an ARC grant can apply for READY Grants to Grow. Interested applicants are invited to register for a pre-application webinar set for Thursday, Oct. 10.

Gilmore Elementary in Jackson County, Kellogg Elementary in Wayne County and Pleasant Valley Elementary in Marion County were among 356 schools across the nation to receive the prestigious award this year. The National Blue Ribbon Schools Program is one of the U.S. Department of Education's longest-running recognition programs. NBRS recognizes outstanding public and non-public elementary, middle, and high schools based on their overall high academic achievement or success in closing the achievement gap among diverse groups of students.

Researchers say they have designed the platform to encourage development opportunities, like clean energy and recreation, on former mine lands. To repurpose these lands and create new jobs, WVU will collaborate with Coalfield Development Corporation and The Nature Conservancy. The system is part of a comprehensive project called “Appalachian Climate Technology Now,” which received funding from the U.S. Economic Development Administration as part of the Build Back Better Regional Challenge Grant. Users will be able to filter their searches to find land that would suit their needs, whether they are looking to build a solar farm or raise carbon capture biomass crops, for example. During the project's second year, the WVU team aims to refine the search tool to provide users with a timeframe for sustainable development. At present, 16 sites have been identified.
