SODI Provides Fourth $150K Grant to Region
Funding Will Support New Airport Terminal in Jackson County
PIKETON, Ohio – April 19, 2013 – A new 2,000 square foot terminal at the James A. Rhodes Airport in Jackson County is on the horizon thanks in part to the recycling efforts of clean scrap metals from the U.S. Department of Energy’s former uranium enrichment facility in Piketon. The Southern Ohio Diversification Initiative (SODI) has announced the award of a $150,000 grant from its recycling proceeds to the Jackson County Commissioners for the planned project to enhance the airport located five miles southeast of Jackson.
