SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to issue a purchase order to SecureUSA, Inc.
in an amount up to $235,000 for the purchase, shipping and installation of four electric wedge barriers to
support critical infrastructure protection under the U.S. Department of Homeland Security 2006 Buffer Zone
Protection Program (CFDA 97.004).

No Net County Cost. 100% funded through the U.S. Department of Homeland Security 2006 Buffer Zone
Protection Program.
BACKGROUND:
In January 2007, the Governor's Office of Homeland Security (OHS) received approval from the Preparedness
Directorate Office of Grants and Training of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security for funding under the
FY 2006 Buffer Zone Protection Program. The Office of the Sheriff was awarded funds as a sub-grantee. The
grant provides funding to build security and risk-management capabilities at the local level that will help protect
specifically identified critical infrastructure and key resources from threats or acts of terror.
The purchase of four electronic wedge barriers provides necessary protection and reduced vulnerability to
specific areas within our local community.

Negative action on this request will affect our ability to help protect critical infrastructure and key resources
from threats and acts of terror.
