The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is helping to reduce air pollution in and around the Port of San Juan, by providing the Polytechnic University in Hato Rey with $886,095 to install pollution reduction technology on 72 heavy-duty trucks and replace 10 old heavy-duty trucks with 2010 or newer less polluting models.
Following a $2.9 million investment, the Polytechnic University announced Monday its expansion into the Central Florida region, with the inauguration of its new 40,000 square-foot campus.
Public and private school students of all levels will have a greater chance of joining robotics competitions next school year as a result of a $100,000 sponsorship the Puerto Rico Industrial Development Corp. will grant the Puerto Rico Institute of Robotics, the agency announced Thursday.
