- What it does
- The general objective of this Cooperative Agreement is to provide financial support for staff, response vehicles, specialized tours and training, and the use of two fire station facilities to the Incorporated County of Los Alamos to allow the County to provide an enhanced level of fire department services, including advanced nuclear facility capable, industrial fire suppression, advanced emergency medical, rescue, hazardous materials response, and other services through its municipal fire department.
- Who benefits
- Los Alamos Fire Department is an agency within Los Alamos County. Los Alamos County is a political subdivision of the State of New Mexico.
- Who applies
- EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS: The fire department has an authorized staffing level of fire fighters and officers and civilian support staff. The fire department staff, in addition to being trained as conventional fire fighters responding to fires in residence and businesses, is also trained to respond to fires and other emergencies at nuclear and high hazard facilities. PLANNING: The fire department is responsible for the development of Pre-Incident Plans at necessary LANL buildings and facilities. PUBLIC WORKS: The fire department is responsible for hydrant testing at LANL. TRAINING: Fire fighters receive special training prior to engaging in fire fighting or emergency operations at nuclear and high hazard facilities at LANL, not only to ensure their safety, but to ensure that their actions contribute to control of the incident, versus making the incident worse by possibly spreading contamination or taking actions which result in unnecessary damage to mission critical or costly equipment.

How to read these numbers
- Committed through this program
Money committed under this assistance listing (its CFDA program), counted in the year each action happened.
- How it's paid
Most programs pay out one way — a grant, or a direct payment to individuals; the flow bar only appears when a program genuinely mixes types.
- Some recipients aren't itemized
For entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare, the government reports one aggregate instead of naming tens of millions of people, so the recipient roster isn't part of the public record.
- Awards, counted once
An award count is the number of distinct awards with at least one action that year — each counted once, however many times it was amended.
- The colored bars
Every bar on this page splits by how the money moves:
