The Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) program is approved by Congress through the
Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2022 and implemented by the U.S. Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) through the Federal Emergency Management Agency
FY 2022 Urban Area Security Initiative Program Additional Funding

(FEMA), to assist high -density urban areas to strengthen the nation's communities
against potential terrorist attacks and other hazards. The UASI program provides funds
to local emergency first responders to enhance security and overall preparedness to
prevent, respond to, and recover from acts of terrorism. The grant specifically provides
funding for training, planning, equipment, exercises, and technical assistance.
In FY 2006, the DHS established a combined UASI in the Orange County Urban Area
called the Anaheim/Santa Ana Urban Area (ASAUA) UASI. The City of Santa Ana now
shares grant administrative responsibilities with the City of Anaheim, annually
alternating the function of lead administrative agency. The City of Anaheim is the lead
agency for FY 2022 funding and is therefore the UASI Sub -Grantee, with Santa Ana
designated as a sub -recipient through Anaheim. The Santa Ana Police Department has
worked with the City of Anaheim, the County of Orange, and cities within the
Anaheim/Santa Ana Urban Area to determine current capabilities and needs and have
established goals and objectives for the Anaheim/Santa Ana Urban Area. The City of
Santa Ana will work in collaboration with the City of Anaheim to implement
complementary strategies for responding to acts of terrorism.
The FY 2022 funds support the Homeland Security Training and Exercise Program to
enhance capabilities across multiple disciplines and jurisdictions in areas such as active
shooter, mass gathering and civil disturbances, cyber security, emergency
management, and advanced life-saving techniques. This appropriation adjustment will
add $36,500 to the current grant award of $1,927,800 for a new total grant award of
$1,964,300. The funding will be used to support a new training facility and additional
regional training for law enforcement.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with this action.
FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of the appropriation adjustment will recognize $36,500 in the FY 2022 Urban
Area Security Initiative revenue account (no. 12514002-52001) and appropriate same to
the Urban Area Security Initiative expenditure account for projected expenditures as
