SB 582 Pennsylvania Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An Act amending Title 35 (Health and Safety) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in grants to fire companies and emergency medical services companies, further providing for award of grants.

SB 582 streamlines grant applications for Pennsylvania fire and emergency medical services (EMS) companies. It sets a 45-day annual application window, requires the state to act on applications within 60 days (with unaddressed applications deemed approved), and allows one 15-day extension per company every three years for reporting without needing to prove hardship. The bill directly affects local fire and EMS companies seeking state funding under Title 35. This procedural update simplifies administrative processes but does not change grant eligibility, amounts, or funding levels.
