With help from the United States Department of Agriculture, the Arnoldsburg (WV) Volunteer Fire Department has put a new pumper/tanker in service, according to a report published by 12WBOY.
The new $405,000 truck is built on a Kenworth T880 by Pierce Mfg. and was funded through the USDA Rural Development Community Facilities Direct Loan and Grant Program, according to the report.
The new pumper/tanker will replace a 30-year-old unit, according to 12WBOY, that said local officials feel the purchase would not have happened without the federal funding.
