Three entities in Jefferson and St. Lawrence counties have received $465,283 in stimulus funding to improve the energy efficiency of their buildings, Gov. David A. Paterson announced Monday.

In Jefferson County, the Thousand Islands Central School District was given $163,760 to install a 20-kilowatt wind turbine, which is expected to reduce the district's electric bill by $7,474 a year. The location of the turbine has not yet been decided.
