This grant is for the purpose of strengthening the capacity and capabilities of rural and volunteer fire departments (RFDs) significantly involved in protecting communities and suppressing wildland fires near lands managed by the Department of Interior (DOI). Administered through the Rural Fire Assistance (RFA) program, this funding aims to enhance the readiness and operational effectiveness of these crucial departments. The Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF) has already identified and notified successful applicants through a solicitation process conducted in spring 2010. ODF is now invited to submit a formal application to facilitate the distribution of these pass-through awards, enabling the selected rural and volunteer fire departments to acquire necessary resources and improve their response capabilities in critical fire zones.
