A tool of public action is the federal government doling out grants-in aid. This is exactly what numerous fire departments in New Jersey are looking for to help them during the hard economic time. The departments in the rural area are struggling to pay their firefighters and for supplies. Each year the government gives out grants to pay some of the salaries of some of the departments. However, with a new high of 69 departments applying for the grant, it will be harder to receive the money. Grants is one of the more popular tools of government and it is vital for these areas to receive this money to have a realistic number of firefighters in each region.
