U.S. Senator Bob Casey (D-PA) today announced his plan to help volunteer fire companies cover the rising cost of fuel prices. The Supporting America's Volunteer Emergency Services Act of 2008 (SAVES Act) would establish a grant program under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to be distributed to volunteer fire companies to help them pay to fuel fire trucks. Senator Casey will introduce the SAVES Act when Senate goes back into session next week. Conneaut Lake Volunteeer Fire Department (Dept 7) is truly honored to have been chosen by Senator Casey as a site for this important announcement.
