Firefighter Exposure to Environmental Elements Grants (FEEEG) Program
Description
As part of our Safety Intervention Grant programming, FEEEG is available only to Ohio firefighter employers. BWC uses FEEEG to partner with Ohio employers to minimize exposure to dangerous environmental elements. The program is available to eligible Ohio employers who wish to purchase the following qualified/allowed items for optimal protection against these exposures.
• Diesel exhaust systems (local source (tailpipe) capture; not general dilution/filtration ventilation)
• Extractors/Washing machines for turn-out gear
• Hoods with barrier protection
• Washable gloves (structural firefighter glove or one that meets the requirements of NFPA 1971)
