Federal recovery funds are being used by the Arkansas Forestry Commission to supply wildland firefighting kits to fire departments in the state. The kits, valued at $3,000 each, contain chain saws, rakes, leaf blowers, and hand tools.
The Commission is also using a portion of the $3.6 million grant to buy six new dozers that will be stationed in northern Arkansas.
