This grant will address both of these problems by: establishing partnerships with other law enforcement agencies and community groups; assisting in drug prevention and treatment; providing trautiug and equipment to law enforcement officers and members of the Washington/Madison County Drug Treatment Court, and establishing education programs for community groups, utility providers, social workers, and retail outlets on the hazards of methamplietanune labs and precursor chemical identification. The grant will help create a committee to study the methamphetamine problem in the 4th Judicial District and develop and implement an anti- methamplictaininc campaign. • Partnerships will be created with the Washington/Madison County Drug Treatment Court and law enforcement agencies within the 41h Judicial District. The grant will provide funds to the drug court for equipment, training, and upgrading of the court's database. The Washington/Madison County Drug Treatment Court was selected for the partnership because it provides drug education and prevention by appearances in schools, drug treatment for selected offenders, and statistical information for law enforcement. The drug court is funded through a grant and it docs not currently have the budget to pay for these items. The 4th Judicial District Drug Task Force (4'h JDDTF) supports the efforts of the drug court as an alternative solution for the methamphetamine problem.

This grant will assist the 4th JDDTF in the enforcement of methamphetamine related drug activities and will support an additional officer at the task force. This officer will maintain records and track trends concerning the methamphetamine lab crisis in our area, as well as actively work cases involving clandestine labs and the importation and exportation of various forms of methamphetamine. This grant will provide needed training to officers at the task force to safely dismantle methamphetamine labs. All task force officers that dismantle methamphetamine labs will be required to be certified by an approved Drug Enforcement Administration Clandestine lab school or On -Site Safety training. Training will also be sought in the areas of Methamphetamine Lab Investigation, Informant Management, and Basic Drug Investigation. Equipment will be purchased through Ihis grant that will assist officers in investigating methamphetamine labs. An enclosed ti after with a generator and floodlights will be purchased. The enclosed trailer is needed because many of our methamphetamine labs arc seized in rural areas and electricity and water are not always readily available An enclosed trailer could • • carry all the safety equipment and evidence packaging items that are necessary when dismantling a methamphetamine lab. The 4' JDDTF will also buy equipment that will be used to enforce laws regarding the transportation and distribution of methamphetamine. Audio and video recording devices are needed and necessary to capture the illegal activity for presentation in a courtroom. A GPS tracking device will be purchased and used to identify drug sources and / or tracking drug suppliers. This grant will assist the 4th JDDTF in adopting Community Oriented Policing Strategies through the partnership with the Fayetteville Police Department. The task force will expand its current methamphetamine education program and document all speaking engagements. There is a need to educate community groups and organizations, utility companies, apartment and hotel managers, social workers, and retail outlets on the identification of precursor chemicals and the hazards of methamphetamine for public safety and health reasons. A committee of ten to twelve members will be developed to study the methamphetamine problem and develop strategies for an anti - methamphetamine campaign. The committee members will be selected from the following areas within the 4'h Judicial District: drug treatment, public health, faith -based organizations, law enforcement, community groups and organizations, the local media, and the University of Arkansas. The funding for the anti -methamphetamine campaign will be provided by this grant and the officers at the task force will be available to respond to the needs of the committee. The 4'h JDDTF will set up a hotline and a website to be used in conjunction with the anti -methamphetamine campaign. This hotline and website will be monitored by the officer provided for in this grant. The 4th JDDTF, the selected partners, and the committee referred to in this grant will also initiate some of the civil remedies that are needed to clean up the hazardous residue after the chemical contractor has taken the methamphetamine lab from the lab site. In Washington and Madison Counties no one is currently responsible for the cleanup of these harmful chemicals which at certain levels are considered as a health hazard. Since methamphetamine labs are found in apartments, hotels, and other rental property, these chemical residues could have an effect on a large number of people. The task force will explore ways that will make it possible to make the owner of the property or the person who assembled the methamphetamine lab to pay for the clean up of any harmful chemicals. The task force will try to influence community leaders to make city and / or county ordinances to assist this goal through codes compliances and nuisance abatement. The 4'h JDDTF could not possibly meet all the needs that have been outlined without the assistance provided for in the COPS Methamphetamine Training Initiative. The current task force budget does not allow for the purchase of any additional equipment, the addition of another officer, or a funded committee to develop an anti - methamphetamine campaign. The 4th JDDTF has taken advantage of the free Drug Enforcement Administration and Arkansas State sponsored methamphetamine lab training, but it usually takes a year to receive the training. Through this grant, the task force will be able to get three officers in clandestine methamphetamine training and two officers in On -Site Safety. By adding another officer to the 4'h JDDTF, the task force will have more time to educate the public on the hazards of methamphetamine Tabs in the community and to enforce methamphetamine related laws. The equipment that will be bought through this grant could not be purchased with the 4th JDDTF's current budget. The enclosed trailer, generator, and floodlights will provide safety for officers as they • • investigate and dismantle methamphetamine labs. The surveillance equipment will assist in identifying and arresting individuals who transport and sell methamphetamine. After receiving notice of the grant award, the 4'h JDDTF will begin working with all of the partnership agencies to fully implement this Anti -Methamphetamine Imt►ahve. These partnership agencies will help create the committee assigned to collect information from the communities to better define our needs in combating the methamphetamine problem. The enforcement abilities of the 4th JDDTF will be enhanced by the addition of an officer and covert surveillance equipment utilizing new technology.
