Washington, D.C. – Congressman David Davis announced today a U.S. Department of Homeland Security Assistance to Firefighters Grant to the Washington County/Johnson City E.M.S. in the amount of $153,860 designated for Operations and Safety.
“First Responders in Washington County perform a necessary task in an excellent manner,” Congressman David Davis said. “Our region will be able to use this federal money to further protect our region and continue to secure our existing infrastructure.”
The purpose of the AFG program is to award grants directly to fire departments or E.M.S organizations. These awards aim to enhance our first responder’s ability to protect the health and safety of the public as well as that of first responder personnel, with respect to fire-related hazards.
