WASHINGTON, D.C - U.S. Senators Debbie Stabenow (MI) and Gary Peters (MI) today announced that the Glen Arbor Township Fire Department will receive $95,238 from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to upgrade the diesel exhaust system in the apparatus bay. The funding comes from the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) Assistance to Firefighters Grants (AFG) program.
