Virginia Burn Building Grants

Grant Details:
Application Due Date: TBA

Description: 

Deadline:

Applications for new construction or renovation projects will be received for review bi-annually and must be postmarked by either January 1 or July 1

Purpose:

To purchase localities seeking to construct, renovate, or repair permanent burn buildings.  The term burn building refers to an unoccupied structure specifically constructed for the purpose of providing live fire training to fire service personnel in support of Fire Fighter I and Fire Fighter II Training throughout the Commonwealth of  Virginia per the NFPA 1001 & 1003 training standards.

As approved by the Virginia Fire Services Board, the Burn Building Grant Program may also provide exclusive funding to the Virginia Department of Fire Programs for the acquisition, renovation, repair, service, and management of the Mobile Burn Building Props Program to provide training opportunities to multiple jurisdictions in support of Fire Fighter I and Fire Fighter II Training throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia per the NFPA 1001 & 1403 training standards.

As approved by the Virginia Fire Services Board, the Burn Building Grant Program may also provide exclusive funding to the Virginia Department of Fire Programs for the execution and delivery of an exclusive contract for engineering consulting services to the VFSB.  The engineering firm is on contract to VDFP exclusively, and to prevent conflict of interest may not contract with local jurisdictions on the burn building grant projects for which funding is sought through the Burn Building Grant Program.  The engineering firm is on contract to and is tasked by VDFP.  The principal point of contact to the engineering consulting firm shall be the Executive Diirector of VDFP, or his VDFP staff designee.

Applying:

Any eligible jurisdiction may submit an application for a new construction Burn Building grant or a renovation to a Burn Building by completing and filing the prescribed form.  Applications for new construction or renovation projects will be received for review bi-annually and must be postmarked by either January 1 or July 1.  Repair Project application submissions, up to $10,000, will be accepted by the Agency at any time throughout the year.  Grant applications should be sent directly to:
