The Nevada Department of Transportation expects a $100 million reduction in its 2010-11 capital improvement program, from $350 million to $300 million.

Energy summit will help create jobs

While the Congress is in recess, important work goes on. The National Clean Energy Summit 2.0, which will be held in Las Vegas on Monday, will build on the two previous summits which were held in Las Vegas and in Washington, D.C.
