GREEN RIVER — The Sweetwater Economic Development Coalition (SEDC) recently collaborated with Rocky Mountain Power to help in the funding of their new countywide Economic Development Website.

The partnership with Rocky Mountain Power is a part of their Coal Impacted Communities Program. SEDC was eligible for funding from Rocky because of their focus on diversification and job enhancement for Sweetwater County.  

“We appreciate the opportunity to support the Sweetwater Economic Development Coalition’s mission to sustain and retain a strong, diversified business climate,” said Sharon Fain, Rocky Mountain Power’s Vice President for Wyoming. “This new website will serve as a key economic development tool for business recruitment, attraction and expansion as well as job enhancement.”
