Tracking economic stimulus funds for construction
To keep track of how the stimulus package is progressing, check out www.recovery.gov, the federal website set up to monitor the distribution of funds and results from the stimulus package.
Right now, the site offers an overview of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act and an explanation of what it hopes to accomplish. Eventually, you’ll have access to data on how Federal Agencies plan to allocate the money — which states and sectors of the economy are due to receive what proportion of the funds. As money starts to flow, more data will become available.
