Applying for AFG funding for exhaust removal systems takes more than listing equipment. Strong applications clearly connect documented health risks to operational need.
Here are four ways to strengthen your submission:
1. Start Early
Review the latest Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to understand updated priorities and scoring criteria.
2. Define the Need Clearly
Document how diesel exhaust exposure affects your crew and include system details that show measurable impact.
3. Align with AFG Priorities
Tie your request directly to firefighter safety, cancer prevention efforts, and compliance.
4. Confirm Registration
Ensure SAM.gov, Login.gov, and FEMA GO accounts are active before deadlines approach.
