Application for Regional Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) Details: Within the next two years, the fire department's inventory of Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBAs) will need to be replaced due to state and federal regulations. Clark County last replaced all SCBAs over a decade ago through a similar regional grant. Since all fire departments in the county are facing the same replacement schedule again, staff proposes to partner with other fire departments in the county in applying for another regional grant to replace SCBAs. The grant application period is expected to open sometime in August or September. If participation is approved, Camas-Washougal Fire Department (CWFD) Captain Kevin Bergstrom has offered to take the county lead in applying for the grant. Presenter: Nick Swinhart, Fire Chief
