text: The Bloomfield Fire Department is receiving a $1 million grant. With New Mexico facing the threat of a longer fire season, these federal funds are a critical component to ensuring that the Bloomfield area has the personnel it needs to protect the community. New MexicoÛªs firefighters serve with distinction in harmÛªs way and we must do all we can to see that they have the resources they need to do their jobs as safely and effectively as possible.  This investment will contribute greatly to that effort.
