Agenda Item Text:

Approve $78,398.88 from the 2019 Hazardous Materials Emergency Preparedness Grant to support equipment purchases for the Countywide Hazardous Materials Response Team, effective May 5, 2020.  

Background:

This grant is a three year grant and about to come to a close.  Cochise County OES applied for residual funding to purchase equipment in support of the Countywide Hazardous Materials Response Team.  The team is a multi-jurisdictional / multi-agency organization that responds to HAZMAT emergencies in the County and participates as a regional response resource with the Southern Arizona HAZMAT Response Team.  This is the second purchase made on this grant by the county. 

Department's Next Steps (if approved):

Order equipment for use during training events. 

Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:

Grant funds will be returned to the state and likely go unused in the grant performance period. 

To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:

Increase project budget authority accordingly.
