DISCUSSION:
The Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) Grant Program was authorized by Congress
in 2003, and implemented by DHS to help strengthen the nation against risks
associated with potential terrorist attacks. In 2015, high-threat, high density urban areas
were eligible for funding under the UASI program, including the Orange County
Metropolitan Area. The urban areas are chosen by DHS based on a formula that takes
into account factors such as a critical infrastructure, population density, and credible
threat information. The cities of Anaheim and Santa Ana, selected as the core cities for
Orange County, were jointly awarded approximately $5.5 million in FY 2015. Together,
these agencies are responsible for the management and administration of the UASI
Grant Program. Overall, the UASI Grant provides the City's first responders equipment
and training to better prepare for a terrorist attack and/or natural disaster.
The FY 2015 UASI Grant Program Priorities for Orange County include:
Strengthen Interoperable Communications: Dispatch radio consoles for P25
Compliance upgrade
Strengthen Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and Explosives (CBRNE)
detection, response and decontamination capability, which includes replenishing
dosimeters for Fire, replenishing Personal Protective Equipment (PPE),
maintaining FLIR equipment and OCSD Bomb Squad robot upgrades
Enhance information collection, analysis and dissemination to sustain the
Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR) Program
Improve and expand critical infrastructure protection; sustain Orange County
Civic Center Video Surveillance System
