Could this be right?

The estimated yearly stipend is 72,000... That's awfully inflated for residency pay. Think it's a typo?

It really depends on the program's need. If they absolutely have to have a resident in a certain area, that is not unreasonable. For example, the stipend for the Drug Information Residency at Stanford is $71,000. For Drug Info. at Kaiser it is $70,000.

Also, look at all of the residency positions at the University of Utah, which are $50,000 - 60,000, depeding on the area.

I am not familar with the particular institution you mentioned, so theoretically it could be a typo, but there is an equal likelihood given its location that the information on ASHP's website is correct.

It may be because they are not accredited yet ("application submitted"). I did hear of one place who offered higher pay for their first year of their residency program because they were not accredited.
