How will the monies allocated for fire station construction be distributed, modifications to the current AFG Program or through State Level Programs?
Final criteria have not yet been set. However, fire service agencies (or units of local government that own, operate, or manage them) will be eligible. DHS and FEMA will soon decide how they will prioritize applications. They may elect, for instance, to prioritize capital projects that are designed to increase fire fighter wellness (e.g., installation of exercise rooms), or they might fund projects designed to decrease response times (adding an engine bay for a new truck or building a new station near a new residential or commercial center).
