Congratulations to the Sarles Rural Fire Department on your new brush truck through the Federal Excess Personal Property (FEPP) program! 🔥
Through FEPP, the USDA Forest Service loans federal property used for firefighting to state forestry agencies like the NDFS. We then place it with local departments to bolster local capacity for wildland firefighting, ultimately protecting American homes and lives from wildfire while reducing the cost of wildfire protection to taxpayers.
Does your department need equipment to help increase its wildland firefighting ability? Submit a request here: https://bit.ly/ND-FEPP
