VRS; retirement credits for special forest wardens. Provides retirement credits to special forest wardens of the Department of Forestry who participate directly in extinguishing forest fires. Such persons would receive eight hours of retirement credits for each day or portion of a day in which they participate directly in extinguishing a forest fire. The retirement credits could be used to reduce the years of service otherwise required for eligibility for an unreduced service retirement allowance, but not below 25 years of service. Each month of service would be eliminated at the rate of one month of service for each 173 hours of retirement credits.
