4. GENERAL GRANT INFORMATION

5. SOURCE OF FUNDS • Authorization: • The Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program was created as part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2005, which merged the discretionary Edward Byrne Memorial Grant (Byrne) Program with the formula-based Local Law Enforcement Block Grant (LLEBG) Program to streamline funding and grant administration • The JAG Program statute can be found in Subpart I of Part E of Title I of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 • The JAG Program is authorized under 34 U.S.C. §§ 10151 - 10158 • Despite the combination of the Byrne and LLEBG Programs in Federal FY 2005, Missouri continues to administer subawards under the purpose area of LLEBG separate from the purpose area of JAG • Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) #: 16.738 • Federal Administering Agency: • U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), Office of Justice Programs (OJP), Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA)

6. FUNDING Population & Part 1 Crime Allocation Minimum Base Allocation • Calculated by the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) • First, BJS determines a minimum base allocation to be awarded to each U.S. state and territory • Second, BJS calculates an additional allocation for each state and territory based on the state or territory’s share of population and Part 1 crime statistics (as compared to the other states and territories) • Once Missouri’s total is known, BJS next calculates each jurisdiction’s share of population and Part 1 crime statistics (as compared to the state’s) • Jurisdictions calculated as $10,000 or more receive direct awards from BJA (and are thus ineligible to apply for additional funding from Missouri, unless the project is multi-jurisdictional) • The remaining money, including the less than $10,000 shares, are awarded to the MO Department of Public Safety (MO DPS) • MO DPS is required to use the less than $10,000 shares for grants totaling less than $10,000 (funds the LLEBG Program) • MO DPS uses the remaining money to fund other grants under the JAG Program name Missouri Less than $10K Allocations $10K & More Allocations Direct Awards from BJA to Local Unit of Government MO Department of Public Safety JAG (Remaining $) LLEBG (<$10K $)

7. FUNDING OVERVIEW • Things to remember: • The Federal Fiscal Year is October 1 to September 30 whereas the LLEBG Project Period is January 1 to June 30 • Therefore, 2020 LLEBG awards will be funded from a combination of FY 2019 federal monies and any balance of monies from prior FY federal awards

15. ELIGIBLE COST ITEMS – SPECIAL PROVISIONS • Body Armor cont’d • BJA guidelines require body armor to be made in the United States. • BJA guidelines require recipients of funding for body armor to have a written “mandatory wear” policy in effect. • There are no requirements regarding the nature of the policy other than it being a mandatory wear policy for all uniformed officers while on duty. • Subrecipientswill be required to send a copy of such mandatory wear policy to DPS when returning the signed subawarddocuments, if the approved budget includes costs for body armor. (Do not submit with the application!)

16. ELIGIBLE COST ITEMS – SPECIAL PROVISIONS • Body-Worn Cameras (BWCs) • Encouraged to seek federal funding instead through the Body-Worn Camera Policy and Implementation Program (BWC PIP) but will not be denied funding automatically. • Information about the BWC PIP can be found online at https://www.bja.gov/ProgramDetails.aspx?Program_ID=115 • LLEBG funds may not be used as any part of the 50% match required by the BWC PIP • BJA guidelines require recipients of funding for body-worn cameras to have policies and procedures in place related to BWC equipment usage, data storage and access, privacy considerations, and training. • Subrecipients will be required to send a copy of such policies/procedures to DPS when returning the signed subaward documents , if the approved budget includes costs for body-worn cameras. (Do not submit with the application!) • BJA released the BWC Toolkit (https://www.bja.gov/bwc/)to share model BWC policies and best practices to assist departments in implementing BWC programs.

17. ELIGIBLE COST ITEMS – SPECIAL PROVISIONS • Mobile Data Terminals (MDTs) • Should research the type of computer being requested. • The Missouri Department of Public Safety is aware that non-ruggedized laptops and tablets are typically not durable enough for road patrol purposes and therefore not the best use of federal monies. • Be sure the application addresses the agency’s capabilities (e.g. the types of data sharing programs/systems that would be accessible, internet connectivity).

18. ELIGIBLE COST ITEMS – SPECIAL PROVISIONS • Police Cruisers • May be marked or unmarked. • BJA defines a “police cruiser” as a vehicle used in the ordinary course for routine police patrol. • Depending on the agency’s jurisdiction, examples includes sedans, sport utility vehicles (SUVs), motorcycles, etc. • Segways, ATVs, and golf carts are also permissible but only if the Missouri Department of Revenue/Motor Vehicles does not require licensing or registration for such modes of transportation. Due to additional restrictions as a result of 34 U.S.C. § 10152, other types of vehicles (e.g. pick-up trucks, passenger vans, command centers, wheeled armored vehicles, tactical vehicles, etc) will not be permitted through the LLEBG Program.

19. ELIGIBLE COST ITEMS – SPECIAL PROVISIONS • Radios • Digital mobile radios compliant with APCO Project 25 (P25) specifications embody certain fundamental advantages, including interoperability. The term “inoperability” refers to radio equipment in compliance with P25 specifications, regardless of the manufacturer, that allow users to be “interoperable” with each other. • Pursuant to federal guidelines, communication projects funded with LLEBG/JAG monies should support the Statewide Communication Interoperability Plan (SCIP). Missouri has built a statewide public safety interoperable communications system, know as the Missouri Statewide Interoperability Network (MOSWIN). MOSWIN is a network of communications towers, base stations, and communications software designed to provide the infrastructure for interoperable communications throughout the state to both state public safety agencies and any local jurisdiction that wishes to use the system for their interoperable communications. • Radios are manufactured with bands: 1) VHF (single-band) or 2) VHF/700/800 MHz (dual-band). Initially the MOSWIN sites were built in the VHF band. Additional MOSWIN sites have since been added that have been built out to 700 MHz. Future MOSWIN sites may be built out in 700 MHz.

20. ELIGIBLE COST ITEMS – SPECIAL PROVISIONS • Radios cont’d • Agencies applying for radios should be aware that dual-band (multi-band or all-band) radios (VHF/700/800 MHz) are the best opportunity for local agencies to harness the coverage and capacity being implemented by the State in the MOSWIN. • System users must have a dual-band (VHF/700/800 MHz) mobile radio, installed to the manufacturer’s recommended specifications, to obtain optimum benefit from system enhancement. • VHF band radios are not compatible with 700 MHz band tower sites, and 700/800 MHz band radios are not compatible with VHF band tower sites. Dual band (VHF/700/800 MHz) radios will be able to connect to all MOSWIN sites. • LLEBG/JAG funds will only be permitted for models of radios that are dual-band. • Refer to the “Radio Interoperability Guidelines” available online at https://www.dps.mo.gov/dir/programs/cjle/llebg.php for a list of allowable mobile radios, portable radios, and repeaters, as well as justification necessary to provide within the LLEBG application if requesting such items. NOTE: Contact the Missouri Interoperability Center by phone at (855) 4-MOSWIN or by email at moswin.sysadmin@dps.mo.gov to ensure the appropriate communication devices are purchased for the department's needs and location to the nearest MOSWIN tower and to ensure the appropriate administrative requirements are met as it relates to the MOSWIN.

21. UNALLOWABLE COST ITEMS Unallowable cost items include, but are not limited to: • Aircraft (with the exception of a “police helicopter”) • Computer Software • Finance Fees/Late Charges for delinquent payments • Less –Than-Lethal Weapons, including tasers and stun cuffs • Office Equipment (e.g. desktop computers, scanners, copiers, printers) • Office Furniture (e.g. file cabinets, desks, chairs) • Real Estate • Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), Unmanned Aircraft (UA), and/or Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) • Vehicles (with the exception of a “police cruiser”) • Vessels (with the exception of a “police boat”) • Weapons and Ammunition To leverage resources, research options through Missouri’s LESO Program: call (573) 526-1930 or go to https://dps.mo.gov/dir/programs/cjle/dod.php
