Tracking the dollars

Oregon has successfully completed submission of the Section 1512
quarterly reports for state agencies and the data has been updated on
the interactive Tracking the Dollars map online.  The data on the map is
preliminary and there may be minor edits through the end of the month.
The data displayed on the map includes information about Recovery Act
projects in Oregon including the award amount, amount expended, jobs
funded, project status, and a short project description.  In addition,
information has been added about non- Section 1512 awards such as food
stamps, TANF, Medicaid, unemployment compensation, and the Tax Credit
Exchange Program.
