Rupf, Sheriff Contra Costa County Sheriff's Department P.O. Box 391 Martinez, California 94553 Dear Sheriff Rupf: The Governor's Office of Criminal Justice Planning (OCJP)has applied for and received the State Identification Systems Program(SIS)Grant administered by the Bureau of Justice Assistance(BJA). The SIS Program will enhance the capability of State and local governments to identify and prosecute offenders by establishing or upgrading information systems and DNA analysis. As submitted and approved the initial SIS grant will provide$172,729 to two California counties. An additional SIS grant has been received and will augment the original grant by an additional$194,711. In an effort to best serve the grant recipients the original SIS grant RFA was combined with the augmented grant funds to be the lease disruptive to the receiving crime laboratories. Contra Costa and San Bernardino will receive,upon completion and finalized approval of the RFA by OCJP, $183,716 and$183,724 in SIS grant money respectfully. The OCJP will within the next few weeks be sending both Contra Costa.and San Bernardino Counties the formulated SIS grant RFA packages for their review and submission. Even though your agency will be receiving the SIS grant RFA package,fund availability and process are governed by Section 1400 of the OCJP Grantee Handbook. Section 1400 reads as follows: 1400 FUND AVAILABILITY If, during the term of the grant award, the state and/or federal funds appropriated for the purposes of the grant award are reduced or eliminated by the California Legislature or by the United States Government or in the event revenues are not collected at the level appropriated, OCJP may immediately terminate or reduce the grant award upon written notice to the project. However, no such termination or reduction shall apply to allowable costs already incurred by the project to the extent that state or federal funds are available for payment of such costs. The grant award entered into with OCJP is subject to any applicable restrictions, limitations,or conditions enacted by the California Legislature and/or the United States Government subsequent to execution of the grant award. Projects that spend grant funds before the grant application is approved and placed into grant award agreement do so at the risk of an 0C1P determination that those costs b . allowed.
