Kentucky School Buses Going Green
The Kentucky Department of Education is slated to receive $12.9 million in stimulus funds to help replace some of the more than 9,800 diesel-fueled school buses around the state, with the oldest buses being replaced first and school districts getting funds based on the area's need to replace its existing buses. Officials say there is enough funding provided for each district to receive funds, but some with newer fleets may not request it. It could be spring before any of the 174 districts turn their yellow buses green.
