Whiteford firefighters win grant, get gear

The Whiteford Volunteer Fire Department in northern Harford County has received $231,088 in federal funding through the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Assistance to Firefighters Grant Program.

The money will allow the fire company, which includes 150 volunteers - about 90 of whom are active in fire and emergency services - to purchase 100 sets of protective or 'turnout' gear and face masks.

'We are ecstatic,' said Whiteford assistant chief John Williamson. 'This means we can replace all our turnout gear and upgrade equipment. It brings us into full compliance with national standards.'
