How come some companies have to retire apparatus with an AFG grant but some can sell their apparatus?

AFG grants stipulate that the piece must be retired from active duty, can not be used by another fire department for front line or reserve service, but CAN be used at a training facility as long as it's not driven. My Mack was purchased from Tower Hill #2 when they got a grant for a new pumper/tanker.
