2010 AFG Cost Allowances

[fireman8611]

Shoot Dwayne, you think that's scary--ALL of my quantities were reset to zeros about a month ago. Twelve items, 0 of each for a total project of $0.00. I'm thinking that just is not a good sign at all!!

Earl....like my shoes right now better than yours. All zero's don't sound good. Must be a mistake. Why would they waste time on that when they could just send out a DJ.

Guys remember it ain't over till the fat lady sings and you have a DJ in hand. I had a lot of my folks last year that had zeroed budgets and then different or reduced amounts were put back in and they got funded. Just as many as the ones that saw zeroed budgets and then got DJ'd. Hang in there.

Not to worry Kurt--i'm cool as a cucumber....on a sunny August afternoon!! Spooky to see all the goose eggs, but at the same time it also means that the app was looked at--whether by computer or person--and something was done. No way to read anything into that positive or negative. My choice is to be somewhat negative so that if i'm wrong it's a GOOD thing!!

CAFS Retrofit $41,500
No reductions

How old is the engine you are doing the retrofit on?
We tried that one twice with no success.

Islandfire, it was his 2006 pumper.

[islandfire03]

Thanks: That makes sense, ours was for a much older engine that is still in perfect low hour condition. Can't win if you don't try. :-}

[ktb9780]

If memory serves me right Isandfire, he was rejected for apparatus in 2005 and so we took CAFS out for cost benefit for the 06 award but we then had it built with the strategy that they were going to eventually upgrade to CAFS, so I am pretty sure it already had the plumbing in it correctly to start.

Without me looking at the allowances list that Onebule provided, didn't AFG allow $10,000 for TIC? I'm seeing reductions to $9,000.

Just curious is all.

TICs have been at $9k for a couple of years

JIm I have always used $9K.

[jam24u]

Just had it in my head at $10,000 somehow. Thanks guys.

Wrote a grant for a mutual aid dept. Just found the following today, I haven't check for a few days so I am not sure when it showed up for sure.

Reduction for a TI from 13,000 down to 9000 and we also asked for a deck gun with adjustable nozzle and stack tips, ask for 4,900 and it now shows 0 in the total cost column?
