U.S. Congressman Morgan Griffith (R-VA) announced today that the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Economic Development Administration (EDA) has awarded $200,000 to the LENOWISCO Planning District Commission in Duffield, Virginia, for the development of a Regional Small Modular Reactor (SMR) Manufacturing Supply Chain Report, which could lead to the evolution of existing businesses and the recruiting of new businesses with manufacturing jobs in Scott County.

“This investment will help Scott County showcase their ability to host Small Modular Reactor sites and related manufacturing supply chains, which could bring new jobs and boost economic development and resiliency in the region,” said Griffith.
