GREEN RIVER, Wyo. (AP) - The Green River City Council has decided to continue participating in a cooperative agreement for air service between Rock Springs and Salt Lake City.

The contract is for one year of air service by SkyWest Airlines.

A year ago, SkyWest agreed to provide air service to Salt Lake City if Sweetwater County and the cities of Rock Springs and Green River would guarantee a revenue base. Green River's share of the subsidy is 22%, or about $31,396.

Rock Springs will provide $47,000 toward the subsidy and Sweetwater County $64,000.
