Hemphill County Judge Lisa Johnson met this week with Texas A&M Forest Service leadership, including Area Operations Chief Lee Andersen, Director Al Davis, Judge Johnson, and Deputy Director Wes Moorehead (in photo). The group discussed resources, VFD grant funding, mitigation efforts and their requests for the next legislative session. TFS is in the process of purchasing nine additional aircraft to be stationed in Abilene and the surrounding area. These aircraft would be available should Hemphill County or surrounding communities need them.
