DISCUSSION
On September 19, 2005, the City Council accepted a $8.4 million Urban Area
Security Initiative grant from the federal Department of Homeland
Security, through the State of California, Office of Homeland Security.
This initiative was designed to enhance the domestic preparedness of urban
areas by ensuring that all emergency first responders have adequate
equipment and systems to prevent, respond to and recover from acts of
terrorism. The grant provides total reimbursement to local agencies for
equipment purchases approved and authorized by the Office of Disaster
Preparedness.
The Santa Ana Pol ice Department's Joint Hazardous Assessment Team (JHAT)
trains with local police, sheriff, and fire departments to respond to acts
of terrorism involving chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and/or
explosive devices (CBRNE). The Lion Apparel MT 94 suit offers essential
protection to officers entering a chemical, biological, and some types of
radiological environments. The MT 94 suit is impermeable by a live agent,
biological and chemical, for over 72 hours. This level of protection is
crucial to an officer's well-being when conducting rescues or combating
violent criminal behavior in a CBRNE environment. Additionally, this
amendment will allow the purchase of 60 helmets for the fire suppression
personnel.
The notice inviting bids was advertised on February 14 and 16, 2007, and
