Subgrantees receiving funds through this program are allowed to budget federal grant funds to pay for audit costs, or audit costs may be paid from external sources. For this subgrant, the applicant has chosen not to use federal funds for the purpose of paying audit costs. Therefore, as chief executive officer of the appl'cant government or agency for the attached Drug Law Enforcement Program subgrant, I hereby certify that the applicant government or agency will pay for all audit costs resulting from the state and federal audit requirement attached to this program Such costs will be paid from sources other than the federal and/or matching funds allocated to this program Signature of Authorized Agency Representative (Date) Fred B.

Objectives 1. Continue to incorporate major drug investigations in the Washington and Madison County area into a single and collective investigative effort executed by a "Control Group" of local law enforcement agencies supported with federal funding. 2. Increase the number of arrests and prosecution of drug offenders who operate in the general Northwest Arkansas area by three percent. 3. Maintain the probability of criminal and civil forfeitures in drug convictions. This is based on the efforts in objective number four. 4. Increase investigation of the Mexican connection in the Methamphetamine trafficking. 5. Create a system to collect photographs and personal information of all Methamphetamine suspects identified tied to the Mexican drug trafficking Critical Elements Target Selection The Control Group will give guidance and make recommendations to the DTF as to individual targets for investigative projects. Special consideration will be given to the probability of a successful arrest, prosecution, and criminal and civil forfeitures. Drug offenses will be targeted by the Control Group as the group determines the most prevalent and readily available drugs in their area. The Task Force will also take into consideration the types of drugs which contribute to other criminal behavior. In this area those drugs are methamphetamine, crack, cocaine, and DLEP FY '98 marijuana. Case and Resource Assignment The Control Group will name an Operations Coordinator to assign cases. The coordinator will report on a monthly basis to the control group so this activity can be closely monitored. Also on a monthly basis the Control Group receives a financial report from the Fiscal Officer. Case Monitoring The Operations Coordinator reviews all intelligence information received in the office. This information is gathered from all other law enforcement agencies in our area, as well as citizens calling in information. He assigns follow-up on intelligence based on the location of the criminal activity and the experience of the officer to handle the case. He also monitors the case through -out the process. All open cases are updated with a status form every sixty days until case is closed by arrest. This procedure prevents cases from being lost in the shuffle and not prosecuted on a timely basis.
