OAKLAND COUNTY
FY 2007 JAG - Application 2007-F2953-MI-DJ
Project Narrative — Attachment 1
Project: City of Pontiac — Patrol Vehicles
The Pontiac Police Department has vehicles in its fleet that are in need of replacing. We
will use the grant funds to purchase two (2) Chevy Impalas, and two (2) Chevy Tahoes.
The purchase of the vehicles will provide safer and more reliable vehicles, as well as
minimize the associated maintenance and fuel costs.
Project: City of Southfield — Police Vehicle Equipment Enhancement
Dual Long Gun Mounts: Capital equipment for this project will replace the single
shotgun mount in each marked police vehicle. Presently, uniform officers are assigned
two long guns; 12 gauge shotgun and M16 rifle. The shotgun is carried within the front
passenger compartment and the rifle is carried in the trunk. The dual mount will allow
both long guns to be immediately accessible during critical incidents.
Police Vehicle Safety Partitions: Capital equipment for this project will replace the
existing safety partitions in the marked police vehicles. The current safety partitions are
outdated and will require modification for new police vehicle models. Additionally, the
proposed partition is more accommodating for the dual long gun mount, police radio and
computer system.
Prisoner Containment Modules: Capital equipment for this project to replace the
standard rear seat with a solid molded polyethylene rear seat and foot well. The plastic
material will not absorb body fluids which will help protect officers and occupants from
potentially infectious disease and pathogens. Additionally, the solid seat design helps to
eliminate cavities for hiding weapons or contraband.
Project: City of Southfield — Document Management Solution
Capital equipment for this involves the purchase of high capacity / high volume color
document scanners to link supplemental police reports, such as handwritten statements,
ownership and financial documents, etc. to the CLEMIS records management system
(NetRMS). Due to the large volume of supplemental reports received daily and the
various personnel that will be responsible for scanning and attaching these documents to
the NetRMS report file, scanners will be placed throughout various bureaus in the police
department.
Project: County of Oakland — Prosecutor's Office Equipment Acquisition
Capital equipment for this project will replace and supplement existing
outdated/incompatible equipment used by staff members. The new equipment is needed
for courtroom presentations to juries and training Assistant Prosecutors and police
officers.
Project: County of Oakland — Circuit Court Equipment Acquisition
Capital equipment for this project to create a courtroom environment to allow users to
improve the manner in which they can play back court testimony and present evidence.
Project: County of Oakland — Community Corrections Security System and
Equipment Acquisition
Capital equipment for this project is to purchase and install a security system in the
building used for our Weekend/Weekday Alternative for Misdemeanant (WWAM)
program. An average of 250 court ordered people frequent the building each Saturday
and Sunday with another 50-75 people each Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. The
security system is necessary in order to prevent and detect any crimes that may occur on
the premises. Additional funds are necessary to purchase six (6) AlcoSensor 3 PBT
machines. These units are used in our RESULTS drug testing unit, our Step Forward day
reporting unit, and our WWAM unit to test individuals for alcohol use.
Project: County of Oakland — Sheriff's Office Equipment Acquisition
Stun cuffs: equipment for this project is to be used in the Circuit and District Courts for
Security and safety of the Court staff, public, inmates and deputies. The new equipment
will enhance court security and transportation of inmates. We found that it would be very
beneficial to place on defendants who are in trial, where the actual hand cuffs and belly
chains would need to be removed in the court room. These devices are concealable and
yet still could be activated by a Deputy should the defendant become out of control
(aggressive inmate, escape risk, etc.).
Helmets — Mounted Unit: equipment for this project is to be used by the Sheriff's
Mounted Unit. The helmets they are requesting will be replacing an older style helmet
that was not designed for use by Mounted Deputies. The helmets will enable them to be
compliant with insurance regulations, workers compensation and liability insurance etc.
that come with riding a horse in a police activity.

Other Requirements for OJP Applications
Successful applicants must agree to comply with additional requirements prior to receiving grant
funding, including:
Civil Rights Compliance
Recipients of Office of Justice Programs (OJP) financial assistance are required to comply with several federal
civil rights laws, including Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VI) and the Omnibus Crime Control
and Safe Streets Act of 1968 (Safe Streets Act), as amended. These laws prohibit discrimination on the basis of
race, color, religion, national origin, and sex in the delivery of services. National origin discrimination includes
discrimination on the basis of limited English proficiency (LEP).
To ensure compliance with Title VI and the Safe Streets Act, recipients are required to take reasonable steps to
ensure that LEP persons have meaningful access to their programs. Meaningful access may entail providing
language assistance services, including oral and written translation, where necessary. Grantees are encouraged
to consider the need for language services for LEP persons served or encountered both in developing their
proposals and budgets and in conducting their programs and activities. Reasonable costs associated with
providing meaningful access for LEP individuals are considered allowable program costs. The U.S. Department
of Justice has issued guidance for grantees to assist them in complying with Title VI requirements. The
guidance document can be accessed on the Internet at www.lep.gov, by contacting OJP's Office for Civil Rights
at 202-307-0690, or by writing to the following address:
Office for Civil Rights
Office of Justice Programs
U.S. Department of Justice
810 7th Street NW., 8th Floor
Washington, DC 20531
Confidentiality and Human Subjects Protection (if applicable)
U.S. Department of Justice regulations (28 CFR Part 22) require recipients of OJP funding to submit a Privacy
Certificate as a condition of approval of any grant application or contract proposal that contains a research or
statistical component under which "information identifiable to a private person" will be collected, analyzed,
used, or disclosed. The funding recipient's Privacy Certificate includes a description of its policies and
procedures to be followed to protect the confidentiality of identifiable data. 28 CFR section 22.23. The
Department's regulations provide, among other matters, that: "Research or statistical information identifiable to
a private person may be used only for research or statistical purposes." 28 CFR section 22.21. Moreover, any
private person from whom information identifiable to a private person is collected or obtained (either orally or
by means of written questionnaire or other document) must be advised that the information will only be used or
disclosed for research or statistical purposes and that compliance with the request for information is voluntary
and may be terminated at any time. 28 CFR section 22.27.
In addition, the Department of Justice has regulations with respect to the protection of human research subjects.
See 28 CFR Part 46. In brief, 28 CFR Part 46 requires that research involving human subjects that is conducted
or supported by a Federal department or agency be reviewed and approved by an Institutional Review Board
(IRB), in accordance with the regulations, before Federal funds are expended for that research. As a rule,
persons who participate in Federally-funded research must provide their "informed consent" and must be
permitted to terminate their participation at any time. Funding recipients, before they will be allowed to spend
OJP funds on any research activity involving human subjects, must submit appropriate documentation to OJP
showing compliance with 28 CFR Part 46 requirements, as requested by OJP.
General information re6rding hata Confidentiality and Protection of Human Research Subjects (and Model
Privacy Certificates and other forms) can be found on the following web sites: www.oip.usdoj.gov/forms.htm;
www.ojp.usdoj.govinij/funding/humansubjects/index.html; http://wvvw.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/pub/pdf/bjsmpc.pdf;
and http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/funding.htm.
Anti-Lobbying Act
The Anti-Lobbying Act (18 U.S.C. § 1913) recently was amended to expand significantly the restriction on use
of appropriated funding for lobbying. This expansion also makes the anti-lobbying restrictions enforceable via
large civil penalties, with civil fines between $10,000 and $100,000 per each individual occurrence of lobbying
activity. These restrictions are in addition to the anti-lobbying and lobbying disclosure restrictions imposed by
31 U.S.C. § 1352.
The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) is currently in the process of amending the OMB cost circulars
and the common rule (codified at 28 C.F.R. Part 69 for U.S. Department of Justice grantees) to reflect these
modifications. However, in the interest of full disclosure, no federally appropriated funding made available
under this grant program may be used, either directly or indirectly, to support the enactment, repeal,
modification or adoption of any law, regulation, or policy, at any level of government, without the express
approval by OJP. Any violation of this prohibition is subject to a minimum $10,000 fine for each occurrence.
This prohibition applies to all activity, even if currently allowed within the parameters of the existing OMB
circulars.
Financial and Government Audit Requirements
Federal grants are governed by the provisions of the OMB circulars applicable to financial assistance and OJP's
Financial Guide, which is available from the OJP Web site (www.oip.usdoj.gov/oc). The Financial Guide
includes information on allowable costs, methods of payment, audit requirements, accounting systems, and
financial records. This document will govern how all successful applicants administer funds.
Audits of state and local units of government, institutions of higher education, and other nonprofit institutions
must comply with the organizational audit requirements of OMB circular A-133, which states that recipients
who expend $500,000 or more of federal funds during their fiscal year are required to submit a single
organization wide financial and compliance audit report to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within 9 months
after the close of each fiscal year during the term of the award.
Grantees must comply with the following OJP reporting requirement:
• Financial status reports (SF 269). Grantees must submit these financial reports quarterly by the 45th
day following the end of each calendar quarter, and a final report is due 120 days following the end of
the award period. Grantees may file SF-269 forms online through the Internet at
https://grants.ojp.usdolgov. Grant recipients who do not submit SF-269 reports by the due date will be
unable to drawdown funds.
• Categorical Assistance Progress Reports (OJP Form 4587/1). Grantees should complete and submit
these semiannual reports within 30 days after the end of the reporting periods, which are June 30 and
December 31 for the life of the award. Grantees should submit progress reports online through the
Grants Management System (GMS) using the "Application" module. Grantees may address questions to
the GMS Help Desk at 1-888-549-9901.
National Environmental Policy Act (if applicable)
All OJP awards are subject to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and other related Federal laws, if
applicable. 42 USC section 4321 et seq. The Department of Justice has established procedures to implement
NEPA. See 28 CFR Part 61. The regulations state that "all federal agencies are required to give appropriate
consideration to the environmental effects of their proposed actions in their decisionmaking and to prepare
detailed environmental statements on. . . major federal actions significantly affecting the quality of the human
4
environment." 28 CFR section 61.2. Under the regulations, the Department of Justice, among other things, is
required to "[c]onsider from the earliest possible point in the process all relevant environmental documents in
evaluating proposals for Department action[.]" 28 CFR section 61.6.
OJP has responsibility to ensure compliance with NEPA and 28 CFR Part 61, including Appendix D. For many
projects that are funded by OJP, NEPA may have no applicability. However, if OJP funds will be used, for
example, to pay for renovation projects or new construction, programs involving the use of chemicals, or any
other activity, including research and technology development, that may have an effect on the environment, at a
minimum, the funding recipient must provide a full description of proposed project activities to OJP, and an
Environmental Assessment (EA) will need to be prepared. Prior to allowing a recipient to spend OJP funds for
such a project, OJP must make a finding that the project does not significantly affect the human environment
and that further environmental assessment is not necessary.
DOJ Information Technology Standards (if applicable)
As appropriate, all equipment and software developed under awards that result from this solicitation must be
compliant with U.S. Department of Justice information technology interface standards, including the National
Criminal Intelligence Sharing Plan, the Global Justice XML Data Model, and the Law Enforcement Information
Sharing Plan (LEISP). A list of additional standards can be found at the OJP Standards Clearinghouse.
Single Point of Contact Review
Executive Order 12372 requires applicants from state and local units of government or other organizations
providing services within a state to submit a copy of the application to the state Single Point of Contact (SPOC)
if one exists and if the state has selected this program for review. A list of state SPOCs is available on the OMB
Web site (www.whitehouse.gov/ omb/grants/spoc.html). Applicants must contact their state SPOCs to
determine whether their programs have been selected for state review. The applicant should enter the date that
the application was sent to the SPOC or the reason such submission is not required in Block 3 of the Overview
section of the GMS application.
Non-supplanting of State and Local Funds
Grantees must use federal funds to supplement existing funds for program activities and may not replace
(supplant) nonfederal funds that they have appropriated for the same purpose. Potential supplanting will be the
subject of monitoring and an audit. Violations can result in a range of penalties, including suspension of current
and future funds under this program, suspension or debarment from federal grants, recoupment of monies
provided under this grant, and civil and/or criminal penalties.
Criminal Penalty for False Statements
False statements or claims made in connection with OJP grants may result in fines, imprisonment, and
debarment from participating in federal grants or contracts, and/or other remedy available by law.
Compliance with Office of Justice Programs Financial Guide
The recipient agrees to comply with the financial and administrative requirements set forth in the current edition
of the Office of Justice Programs (OJP) Financial Guide.
Suspension or Termination of Funding
OJP may suspend funding in whole or in part, terminate funding, or impose other sanctions on a recipient for
the following reasons:
• Failing to comply substantially with the requirements or statutory objectives of the appropriate Act,
program guidelines issued thereunder, or other provisions of federal law.
• Failing to make satisfactory progress toward the goals, objectives, or strategies set forth in the
application.
• Failing to adhere to the requirements in the agreement, standard conditions, or special conditions.
• ,
• Proposing or implementing substantial plan changes to the extent that, if originally subniitted, the
application would not have been selected for funding.
• Failing to submit reports.
• Filing a false certification in this application or other report or document.
Before imposing sanctions, OJP will provide reasonable notice to the recipient of its intent to impose sanctions
and will attempt to resolve the problem informally. Hearing and appeal procedures will follow those in U.S.
Department of Justice regulations in 28 CFR Part 18.
Funding to Faith-Based and Community Organizations (if applicable)
Consistent with President George W. Bush's Executive Order 13279, dated December 12, 2002, and 28 C.F.R.
Part 38, it is OJP policy that faith-based and community organizations that statutorily qualify as eligible
applicants under OJP programs are invited and encouraged to apply for assistance awards to fund eligible grant
activities. Faith-based and community organizations will be considered for awards on the same basis as any
other eligible applicants and, if they receive assistance awards, will be treated on an equal basis with all other
grantees in the administration of such awards. No eligible applicant or grantee will be discriminated for or
against on the basis of its religious character or affiliation, religious name, or the religious composition of its
board of directors or persons working in the organization. Faith-based organizations receiving OJP assistance
awards retain their independence and do not lose or have to modify their religious identity (e.g., removing
religious symbols) to receive assistance awards. OJP grant funds, however, may not be used to fund any
inherently religious activity, such as prayer or worship. Inherently religious activity is permissible, although it
cannot occur during an activity funded with OJP grant funds; rather, such religious activity must be separate in
time or place from the OJP funded program. Further, participation in such activity by individuals receiving
services must be voluntary. Programs funded by OJP are not permitted to discriminate in the provision of
services on the basis of a beneficiary's religion.
Non-profit organizations
In all OJP funded programs for which nonprofit organizations are eligible subrecipients, with the exception of
those funded under authority of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act, it is Department of Justice
policy that an organization can demonstrate its non-profit status in any one of four methods:
1. submission of proof of 501(c)(3) status form the Internal Revenue Service
2. submission of a statement form the State taxing authority or State Secretary of State, or other similar
official certifying that the organization is a nonprofit operating within the State, and that no part of its
net earnings may lawfully benefit any private shareholder or individual;
3. submission of a certified copy of the applicant's certificate of incorporation or similar document; or,
4. submission of any item above, if that item applies to a State or national parent organization, together
with a statement by the State or parent organization that the applicant is a local nonprofit affiliate.
All nonprofit subrecipients of formula funds provided under the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention
Act must have 501(c)(3) status recognized by the Internal Revenue Service.
Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA)
The funding recipient agrees to collect data (on a quarterly, semi-annually, or annual basis, as requested)
appropriate for facilitating reporting requirements established by Public Law 103-62 for the Government
Performance and Results Act. The funding recipient will ensure that valid and auditable source documentation
is available to support all data collected for each performance measure specified in the program solicitation.
Rights in Intellectual Property
The U.S. Department of Justice reserves certain rights with respect to data, patentable inventions, works subject
to copyright, and other intellectual property associated with an award of Federal funds. See 28 C.F.R. § 70.36
and 37 C.F.R. Part 401.
