The Nebraska Environmental Trust is considering how to dole out its next round of grant funding.
Application requests this year total more than 42-million dollars.
Trust executive director Mark Brohman says that’s a little lower than last year.

Brohman says technical experts will review the requests and a committee will then score them.
Brohman says Nebraskans can start commenting on the requests now.

Brohman says public comments will be taken at the board’s meeting April 4th.
