WILLIAMSON (AP) - The West Virginia Development Office is providing a $1 million loan to Mingo County to help pay for construction of a dirt racetrack.

The Twin Branch Motorsports Complex will be located near the Logan County line off U.S. 119 on a former Massey Energy surface mine.

The federal Economic Development Administration awarded a $1.2 million grant for the project in 2005. Funding from the loan and grant will be used to pay for water and sewage systems and other infrastructure at the site.

The entire project could cost $7 million to $8 million.

Bids for the infrastructure work are scheduled to be opened Oct. 1 at the Mingo County Courthouse.
