Tennessee is now No. 1 in the U.S.
“Retired law enforcement with TMTF makes up the people who respond to support law enforcement in cleanup. They give support and supplies,” explained Farmer.
Farmer reported a budget of $3.1 million last year due to the spike in a new form of meth cookery.
“We anticipated some storms,” said Farmer, relating to the bad economy and federal funding being dropped, “so we obtained additional funding to keep us operating and that has carried us; but we have cut back and are covering just the fundamentals.”
At most, Farmer said the TMTF can operate for another 1 1/2 years at present, without any major spikes in meth production and cleanup.
“We also lost the Tennessee National Guard support which supplied us intelligence,” said Farmer.
