AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF SANTA ANA
AND THE CITY OF LAGUNA NIGUEL
FOR TRANSFER AND USE OF THE FY2004 UASI GRANT PURCHASED
CRITICAL INCIDENT RESPONSE TRAILER
This Agreement is made and entered into on the tJJlllL ,. dD() 1, by and between the
.
City of Laguna Niguel (hereinafter referred to as "Laguna Niguel") and the City of Santa Ana, a
Municipal Corporation and Charter City, (hereinafter referred to as "Santa Ana").
RECITALS
1. Santa Ana has purchased a Trailer and Equipment (hereinafter, "Trailer" refers
ONLY to all items listed in EXHIBIT "A", and includes "Equipment" referenced
above, which is the trailer contents) designed for use during a regional or local
response (hereinafter "regional" refers to the geographical boundaries of the
County of Orange, and "local" refers to the geographical boundaries of Laguna
Niguel) to a critical incident, terrorism related attack, natural disaster, or
CBRNE/WMD related event, where local or regional resources have been
depleted or are not sufficient for effective response or protection of first
responders. The trailer may also be used (on a limited basis) for specific critical
incident, terrorism related, and CBRNE/WMD related training, drills, or
exercises. The trailer was purchased with FY 2004 Urban Area Security Initiative
(UASI) Grant funds, with the primary purpose of being a regional asset used to
enhance protection, response, and preparedness capabilities.
2. Santa Ana has promulgated certain rules and regulations (See EXHIBIT "B"),
concerning the transfer, use, maintenance, reporting, destruction, replacement,
and inspection of the Trailer; and
3. Laguna Niguel desires to enter into an Agreement with Santa Ana outlining the
ownership transfer of the Trailer to Laguna Niguel, and allowing the possession,
deployment and use of the Trailer for critical incident, CBRNE/WMD, terrorism
related responses and limited training, by the Laguna Niguel Police Services.
COVENANTS
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, the
parties agree as follows:
I. This Agreement shall commence on the date first entered above and will be in
effect indefinitely. It is mutually understood that this Trailer's title, registration
and ownership will be transferred to Laguna Niguel. As such, Laguna Niguel will
be responsible for all fees related to title, registration, and ownership. Because the
Trailer is purchased with UASI grant funds, it must have a regional benefit.
Laguna Niguel is required to, and agrees that if any First Responding agency
(Police, Fire, city Emergency Operations Center) from the Orange County
Operational area has a justifiable need to use the Trailer, and requests to use the
Trailer, Laguna Niguel shall allow that agency access to the Trailer. Furthermore,
Laguna Niguel shall assign the appropriately trained personnel to accompany the
Trailer during deployment to an outside agency, to assist with equipment, set up,
and incident management with respect to use of the Trailer. Access to the Trailer
by the outside agency shall be granted if, and only if, Laguna Niguel is not
engaged in the active deployment of the Trailer for its intended purposes at the
time of the request. Also, the requesting agency's justification must be the result
of any critical incident related to a terrorism, Weapons of Mass Destruction or
CBRNE (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosive) event.
Justification may also include any large-scale incident (natural or man-made
disaster) that is overwhelming to that agency's existing resources, and where other
mutual aid resources are not sufficient.
2. Santa Ana agrees to allow those officers, employees and agents of the Laguna
Niguel Police Services who are authorized by Laguna Niguel to use the Trailer as
specified in this Agreement.
3. All authorized officers, employees and agents of Laguna Niguel who use the
Trailer, shall strictly comply with the rules and regulations attached hereto as
EXHIBIT "B" (including any amendments to EXHIBIT "B"), and any other order
or directive of Santa Ana.
2
4. Laguna Niguel agrees and represents that all of its officers, employees, agents, or
other personnel that may utilize the Trailer will do so only within the course and
scope of their duties as an employee, officer, or agent of Laguna Niguel and they
are in no way employees of Santa Ana. Laguna Niguel is responsible for the
conduct of its employees and Laguna Niguel employees will abide by all rules and
regulations for the use of the Trailer. Any claims involving personal injury or
property damage that result from acts committed by Laguna Niguel employees in
the course of using the Trailer may be brought under the Federal Tort Claims Act
(FTCA), 28 U.S.C. 99 2671 et seQ. In the event personal injury or property
damage occurs due to a Laguna Niguel employee's negligent or wrongful use of
the Trailer, Laguna Niguel will take all appropriate steps to encourage the damaged
party to file a claim under the FTCA so that any compensation due can be paid by
the United States Government.
8. Either party may terminate this Agreement at anytime, without cause upon 30 days
prior written notice.
9. Any notice, demand or other communication pursuant to this Agreement shall be in
writing, and shall be deemed properly given if delivered in person or mailed by

Foreword: Director's Message to Grant Recipients
Following on the heels of a successful 2003 in which the California Office of Homeland Security
distributed more than $226 million in federal homeland security funds to our state's first
responders, we are pleased to release the FY 04 Urban Area Security Initiative grant program.
Last year's U ASI grant funded five urban cities in California for a total of $62 million.
Recognizing that a highly populated state like California has a number of urban areas, the federal
Department of Homeland Security doubled to ten the number of cities selected for this year's
UASI program. Better still, the amount of total funding awarded to the ten select cities has more
than doubled to $135.25 million. This increase in the cities selected and the funding provided
allows the state to address the unique equipment, training, planning and exercise needs oflarge,
high-threat urban areas.
Similar to last year's UASI program, activities must involve coordination by the identified core
city, core county, and the California Office of Homeland Security. Like last year, in an effort to
ensure that each Urban Area has as much resources as possible to address the needs and priorities
identified in the Urban Area assessment and strategy, the state is declining its option of retaining
20% of the funding. As was the case last year, it is expected that this 20% will be used for the
benefit of the Urban Area as a whole.
In addition to the funding provided to the ten Urban Areas, the FY 04 UASI program also
includes more than $5 million in funding for six mass transit authorities identified by federal
DHS. This funding is provided to enhance the security and improve the preparedness of these
selccted mass transit authorities.
OHS is releasing this Grant Guide for Local Governments to fully explain the grant application
and performance process. In addition to this Guide, should you need further assistance we have
dedicated staff at the Office of Emergency Services who will be availablc to provide guidance.
You can reach OES' Grant Management Section at (916) 845-8110, or send an e-mail to
Grant.Management@oes.ca.gov.
I look forward to working with you on this and other grants. Through our combined elTorts,
local first responders will be better prepared to prevent and respond to the threat of terrorism.

Differences
between FY03
Part II and
FY04
Performance
Period
Matching
Requirements
The major program differences between the FY03 UASI Part II and FY04
UASI programs are as follows:
. The FY04 allocation to the state is almost double that of the FY03 Part II
allocation.
. Five new urban areas and six transit agencies have been added to the
FY04 program.
. Eligible planning activities have been expanded.
. Eligible equipment within existing categories has been expanded, and new
categories have been added.
. Non-Office for Domestic Preparedness (ODP) sponsored training courses
may be eligible for reimbursement.
. Funds must be tied to measurable projects in support of the state or urban
area strategy, or the Transit Security Emergency Preparedness Plan.
The pcrformance period for FY04 UASI is 24 months from the federal award
date; however, that date was not known at the time this Guide was published.
The performance period will be identified in the Notification o[Grant
Application Approval letter.
The state wiII allow grant recipients the maximum performance period
allowed by ODP. Therefore, requests for time extension cannot be
granted by the state unless the state receives an extension from ODP.
There are no cost-share or match requirements for this grant.

Part One - Grant Overview, Continued
Allocations and
Methodologies -
Overview
California has been allocated $141,672,927 for FY04 UASI, and is required
to sub grant at least 80% of the funds, or $113,338,342, to urban areas and
transit agencies. Like the FY 03 UASI Part II grant, however, in an effort to
ensure that each urban area has as much resources as possible to address the
needs and priorities identified in the urban area assessment and strategy, the
state is declining its option of retaining 20% of the UASI and mass transit
funding. As was the case last year, at least with regard to the UASI grants, it
is expected that the state's 20% portion will be distributed so as to benefit the
urban area as a whole. When submitting this application, all grant recipients
are requested to provide a breakdown of the funding distribution by
jurisdiction.
The federal Department of Homeland Security determined the allocations for
each of California's urban areas by using a formula based upon a combination
of current threat estimates, critical assets within the urban area and population
density. The formula was a weighted linear combination of each factor, the
result of which was ranked and used to calculate the proportional allocation of
resources. Mass transit systems eligible for participation in the FY04 UASI
program were identified using a formula based upon ridership and total route
miles. Only heavy rail and commuter rail systems were included.
At the discretion of each grant recipient, funds may be distributed between
eligible categories (planning, equipment, training, exercises, management and
administration); however, no more than 3% of the total allocation to each
grant recipient may be used for management and administration costs.
The state is prohibited from retaining any of the $113,338,342 unless
requested, in writing, from the urban area or transit agency. If requested, the
state may retain some or all of the urban area or transit agency allocation for
purchases made by the state on behalf of the urban area or transit agency. In
this situation, the state and urban area or transit agency must enter into a
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) specifying the amount of funds to be
retained by the state.

Points of
Contact
The FY04 UASI program provides financial assistance to address the
unique planning, equipment, training, and exercise needs of large urban areas,
and to assist them in building an enhanced and sustainable capacity to
prevent, respond to and recover from threats or acts of terrorism. This
program also provides funding to specific mass transit authorities to address
security needs at these high risk critical infrastructure facilities and to
promote comprehensive regional planning and coordination.
Urban areas must:
. allocate all funding in support of goals and objectives identified in their
Urban Area Homeland Security Strategy or the State Homeland Security
Strategy; and,
. take a regional metropolitan area approach to the development and
implementation of this program by involving core cities, core counties,
contiguous jurisdictions and mutual aid partners.
Additionally, urban areas are encouraged to employ regional approaches to
planning and preparedness and to adopt regional response structures
whenever appropriate to meet the needs identified in the assessments and the
urban area strategy. It is OOP's intent to steer urban area security and
preparedness efforts toward a project-oriented process to address common,
measurable objectives.
Mass transit authorities must allocate all funding in support of their Transit
Security and Emergency Preparedness Plan developed through this program.
Allowable activities for both the urban areas and the mass transit authorities
can complement the FY04 Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP). More
information on FY04 HSGP can be found on the OES webpage.
The core city is defined as the 10 cities to which urban area funds are
allocated. The core county is defined as the county within which the core city
is geographically located.
Points of Contact (PaC) must be identified for each transit agency, and each
urban area's core city and associated core county.

Approval
Authority Body
The state, in coordination with the urban area core city POC and the core
county POC(s), must fully define the urban area as it will apply to the FY04
UASI program, Specifically, the geographical borders of what constitutes the
urban area, including any possible contiguous jurisdictions and mutual aid
partners, must be drawn and all participating jurisdictions within the border
identified, The definition of the urban area is limited to jurisdictions
contiguous to the core city and county, or with which the core city or county
have established formal mutual aid agreements.
Each transit agency must describe its operating system, including the location,
infrastructure, miles of tracks, numbers of vehicles, types of service, ridership
and other important features, The agency must also provide a map and
description of the geographical borders of its system and identify the cities
and counties served,
Each urban area must have an Urban Area Working Group (UA WG), The
state, in coordination with the core city and core county POCs, will work
through the Mayors/CEOs from all other jurisdictions within the defined
urban area to identify POCs from these jurisdictions to serve on the UA WG,
The UA WG will be responsible for coordinating development and
implementation of all initiative elements, including the urban area strategy
development, the methodology for the allocation of funds (in coordination
with the state), and any direct services that are delivered by ODP, ODP
strongly encourages that, wherever possible, previously established local
working groups are leveraged for this purpose.
01-18 strongly recommends that the urban areas create an Approval Authority
Body, in addition to the mandatory UA WG. The membership composition of
this Body, however, is at the joint discretion of the core city and core county,
If established, this Body should make all final determinations on any urban
area funding allocations,

Assessment and
Strategy
Transit agencies located in urban areas that receive FY04 UASI grant
program funds must coordinate their emergency plans with the UA WG. A
copy of the transit agency's grant program proposal and budget plan should be
shared with the UA WG. Any training or exercises conducted with FY04
UASI Transit System Program funds should also be coordinated with the
UA WG. Sharing of information and coordination of activities is expected to
continue, at a minimum, throughout the performance period for this program.
NOTE: The transit agency must provide written concurrence that
coordination with the UA WG has occurred.
New urban areas must:
. Conduct an Urbau Area Assessment. Newly identified urban areas
receiving funding under this program may use previously collected
assessment data from the 2003 State Homeland Security Assessment and
Strategy (SHSAS) program, which in turn will guide development of an
Urban Area Homeland Security Strategy.
. Develop an Urban Area Homeland Security Strategy. Newly
identified urban areas receiving funding under this program must develop
a comprehensive Urban Area Homeland Security Strategy. This strategy
must be developed jointly by all units oflocal government defined as the
urban area and meet the requirements for a validated Urban Area
Homeland Security Strategy as outlined in ODP's Urban Areas Security
Initiative Administrator Handbook, which can be found at
http://www.shsasrcsources.com.
Note: Receipt of all funds is contingent upon submission of a validated
Urban Area Assessment and a validated Urban Area Homeland Security
Strategy. The Urban Area Homeland Security Strategies for the new
urban areas were due to ODP by January 31, 2004.

Assessment and
Plan
Transit agencies must:
. Conduct a Transit System Threat and Vulnerability Assessment. If
not already completed, each transit agency will be required to conduct a
threat and vulnerability assessment (TV A) which includes requirements
outlined in The Public Transportation System Security and Emergency
Guide, Chapter 5, published by the U.S. Department of Transportation's
Federal Transit Administration (FT A), and available at:
httD:1 /transi I -safetv. vo IDe. dot. gov IPubli cations/ sccuri tv IP lanningGui de. Dd f
For purposes of this granl, transit agencies may use the recently completed
Security Readiness Assessment conducted by the FT A. Transit agencies
may also use the vulnerability assessments that were completed during the
previous round ofUASI Transit System Security Grants. These
assessments must be available for federal and state homeland security
officials to review upon request.
As part of the UAS! Program, ODP is making available technical
assistance to mass transit agency headquarters for enhancing their capacity
and preparedness to respond to weapons of mass destruction (WMD)
terrorism. This technical assistance includes provision of a project team
that can support the agency on-site in the implementation of a needs
assessment process. The overall needs assessment process is used to
identify and prioritize mass transit agency needs, according to risk,
security, and response capability. The process involves three primary
components, as follows:
I. Risk Assessment.
2. Response Capabilities Assessment.
3. Needs Assessment.
The process will result in two products:
I. Prioritization of security countermeasures and emergency response
capability needs based on terrorist threat and risk.
2. Development of a roadmap for future transit agency funding
allocations for terrorist attack risk reduction.

the security program is an integrated one, and has been coordinated with
other agencies, including the UA WG (for those transit systems located in
urban areas that were recipients ofUASI funds). This plan must
be available for federal and state homeland security officials to review
upon request.
Urban areas must utilize their Urban Area Homeland Security Strategy as the
basis for allocating funds to address the prioritized needs, outlined in the
strategy's goals and objectives, in enhancing and refining the urban area's
preparedness efforts. There must be a clear correlation between the issues
identified in the Urban Area Homeland Security Strategy and FY04 UASI
activities. As stated above, when submitting the application, urban areas are
requested to provide a breakdown ofthe funding distribution by jurisdiction.
NOTE: At a minimum, the core city and core county, as members of the
UA WG, must provide written concurrence on the allocation of funds
provided through the FY04 UASI.
Transit agencies' allocation of funds must be based upon their Emergency

Project
Narrative and
Budget
Worksheet
Eligible
Projects
The federal Department of Homeland Security is developing an EXCEL
worksheet that must be used to apply for FY04 VAS!. The final version of
the worksheet, with instructions, was not available when this Guide was
published, therefore, a DRAFT version of the worksheet is available on OES'
web site. The final version of the worksheet and instructions will be posted at
www.oes.ca.gov as soon as they are made available by federal DHS.
Applicatiolls submitted Oil the DRAFT form willllot be accepted.
In the past, ODP's homeland security related applications required that both
the state and grant recipients provide a Program Narrative generally
describing the type of activities that would be undertaken with grant funds.
Additionally, grant recipients were required to submit a Budget Detail
Worksheet which identified specific pieces of equipment that would be
purchased with grant funds.
For the FY04 VASI, using the Project Narrative and Budget Worksheet, core
cities and transit agencies will be required to identify a maximum of 20
specific projects to be completed with VASI funds. For each project, the
core cities and transit agencies must identify:
. The goals and objectives in the Vrban Area Homeland Security Strategy,
Transit Security and Emergency Preparedness Plan or State Homeland
Security Strategy* supported by the project.
. The solution area (planning, training, exercises, etc) and solution area
sub-category (eligible activities) under which project work will be
performed.
. The value of funding, goods and services provided to each discipline by
solution area for the project.
NOTE: The 20 project maximum is for the transit agency's and core city's
application as a whole, including all jurisdictions within the urban area.
* The final version of the State Homeland Security Strategy was not
available when this Guide was published, therefore, a DRAFT version of the
Strategy has been included in this Guide. The final version of the Strategy
will be posted at www.oes.ca.gov as soon as it has been approved by federal
DHS.

Reimbursement
of Eligible
Costs
Duplication of
Benefits
Changes to
Scope of Work
or Budget
FY04 UASI funds will be disbursed on a reimbursement basis, by project,
using the Reimbursement Request form included in Appendix E.
Core cities and transit agencies are strongly encouraged to submit
reimbursement requests as soon as costs have been incurred which includes
when a vendor invoice has been received. In last year's grant, there was
confusion about the reimbursement process. In particular, some grant
recipients were under the impression that they must first purchase items with
their own funds before seeking reimbursement. Instead, an invoice from a
particular vender is sufficient for purchasing jurisdictions to request
reimbursement from OES. For questions about the reimbursement process
please contact OES' Grant Payments Unit at (916) 845-8110.
The cost of employee labor and expenses has been incurred as soon as the
time has been worked or the expense has been paid. Vendor costs have been
incurred when the purchasing jurisdiction has received the vendor's invoice
for payment. Encumbrances, purchase orders or signed contracts do not
qualifY as incurred costs.
NOTE: Payments can only be made if the grant recipient has the following
documents on file with OES:
. Approved Application.
. Valid Governing Body Resolution.
. Valid Grant Assurance.
In no case is a duplication of benefits allowable. That is, a single cost may
not be reimbursed under more than One grant.
All changes to the approved scope of work or budget must be submitted to
OES and approved by OHS. Revisions must be requested in writing and
approved orior to initiating the revised scope of work or incurring the
associated costs. These changes can be requested as part of the performance
report process; however, grant recipients are not precluded from submitting
revision requests at any time.
Failure to submit revision requests and receive approval prior to expenditure
could result in a reduction or disallowance of that part of the grant.

Freedom of
Information
Act (FOIA)
The state recognizes that much of the information submitted in the course of
applying for funding under this grant, or provided in the course of its grant
management activities, may be considered law enforcement sensitive or
otherwise important to national security interests. This may include threat,
risk, and needs assessment information, and discussions of demographics,
transportation, public works, and industrial and public health infrastructures.
While this information is subject to requests made pursuant to the Freedom of
Information Act, 5 U.S.c. Sect. 552 (FOIA), and California's Public Records
Act, all determinations concerning the release of information of this nature
will be made on a case-by-case basis by the state, and may fall within one or
more of the available exemptions under the Act.
Grant recipients are encouraged to consult their own local laws and
regulations regarding the release of information, which should be considered
when reporting sensitive matters in the grant application, needs assessment
and strategic planning process.
