The Supplemental Public Sector Training (SPST) Grant is a federal program authorized by Congress to enhance hazardous materials (HAZMAT) response capabilities nationwide. This grant is offered to national nonprofit fire service organizations. Its primary purpose is to fund the training of instructors, who will then conduct comprehensive HAZMAT response training programs. These programs are essential for individuals with a statutory responsibility to respond to HAZMAT accidents and incidents. Additionally, the grant allows for the direct training of individuals involved in responding to hazardous material incidents. This initiative ensures that the public sector workforce is well-equipped and prepared to handle complex HAZMAT emergencies, bolstering national safety and emergency preparedness.
