ITEM SUMMARY SHEET
DEPARTMENT SPONSORED BY
Sheriff’s Office Penny Luebs
INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
The FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Forces (JTTFs) are the nation’s front line of defense against
terrorism, both international and domestic. They are groups of highly trained, locally based,
passionately committed investigators, analysts, linguists, and other specialists from dozens of U.S.
law enforcement and intelligence agencies. When it comes to investigating terrorism, they do it all:
chase down leads, gather evidence, make arrests, provide security for special events, collect and
share intelligence, and respond to threats and incidents at a moment’s notice.
JTTFs serve as a national resource and create familiarity among investigators and managers
before a crisis by conducting frequent training to maintain the specialized skills of investigators,
analysts, and crisis response teams. JTTFs pool talents, skills, and knowledge from across the law
enforcement and intelligence communities into a single team that responds together.
The task forces coordinate their efforts largely through the interagency National Joint Terrorism
Task Force, working out of FBI Headquarters, which makes sure that information and intelligence
flows freely among the local JTTFs and beyond.The first JTTF was established in New York City in
1980. Today there are about 200 task forces around the country, including at least one in each of
the FBI’s 56 field offices, with hundreds of participating state, local, and federal agencies.
This is a request to accept FY 2023 funding in the amount of $19,841.

of task force-related activities.Consistent with regulation and policy,a separate Cost

underlying Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)must exist in support of the task force
relationship.
For fiscal year 2023,the maximum limits for reimbursements under these CRAs are $1,653.39
per month and $19,840.75 per year for each officer assigned full-time to the task force.These
limits are effective for overtime worked on or after October 1,2022.
These reimbursements are limited to eligible officers'direct overtime salary expenses and shall

notice.This notice is issued unilaterally by the FBI's Budget Officer and does not require formal

of overtime expenses that can and should be approved for each task force officer is also
dependent upon the availability of funding and operational necessity.
