RURAL VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM FUNDING SUMMARY-- MEETING #2 The 77th Texas Legislature passed House Bill 2604 in 2001, establishing the Rural Volunteer Fire Department Assistance Program. The program assists volunteer fire departments with the purchase of equipment and training. Beginning September 1, 2015, grant funds are set at approximately $24.3 million annually. The Texas A&M Forest Service conducted the second Funding Meeting for fiscal year 2016 on March 9, 2016. During this meeting, approximately $2 million in grants were awarded to Texas volunteer fire departments. All departments awarded a grant at this meeting will receive official written notice of approval. Approval letters were emailed to each department on 03/09/16, and will be mailed to non-responding departments on 03/17/16. Any applications for assistance not approved at this meeting will automatically roll forward and will be reviewed at future Funding Meetings. The next Funding Meeting is scheduled for August 3, 2016.
