The Navajo Tribal Utility Authority is using CARES Act funds to extend electricity to 510 families — and so far it has reached more than half its goal.
In a report given to the tribal president and vice president on Monday, 335 families have now been connected.
In August, the tribal administration and the Navajo Nation Council approved over $110 million of the Navajo Nation’s CARES Act funds for various Navajo Tribal Utility Authority water, internet and electricity projects.
