Opportunity Summary:

The Region 9 Law Enforcement Liaison grant opportunity is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Its core purpose is to help raise safety belt use and reduce impaired driving across NHTSA Region 9 by funding a single local Law Enforcement Liaison (LEL) who can work directly with law enforcement partners and support NHTSA's regional goals for 2010. The effort is focused on strengthening enforcement-based traffic safety initiatives, especially those tied to nationally recognized mobilizations.

Under this cooperative agreement, the selected LEL is expected to provide hands-on technical assistance to state, county, and municipal law enforcement agencies in California, Arizona, Hawaii, and the Pacific Island Trust Territories. The work centers on supporting the planning and on-the-ground implementation of two major enforcement campaigns: Click It or Ticket (CIOT), aimed at increasing seat belt compliance, and Driving Under the Influence (DUI) crackdowns, aimed at reducing alcohol-impaired driving. In practice, this liaison role typically involves coordinating with agencies at multiple levels, helping align enforcement activities with campaign expectations, promoting consistent approaches across jurisdictions, and assisting with strategies that improve participation and measurable outcomes during mobilization periods.

Funding for the opportunity is capped at an estimated total of $618,750, with an award ceiling of $618,750 and no cost sharing or matching requirement listed. Only one award is anticipated, meaning the competition is designed to select a single entity to serve as the Region 9 LEL for the period covered by the agreement. The opportunity is classified under the transportation funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 20.614, NHTSA Discretionary Safety Grants.

Eligible applicants include state governments, county governments, and city or township governments, with the listing also indicating the opportunity is unrestricted among those public-sector entity types, subject to any additional eligibility language that may appear in the full announcement. Applicants were required to submit a complete application package referencing the specific Request for Application number DTNH22-10-R-00331. Submissions could be made either by email (the preferred method) to nhtsaoam@dot.gov or by FedEx to NHTSA's Office of Acquisition Management in Washington, DC, attention Vincent Lynch. The deadline for receipt of complete applications was 3:00 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time on Monday, May 17, 2010, and applicants needed to provide a complete mailing address suitable for Federal Express delivery.

For administrative and program questions, the point of contact listed is Vincent Lynch, Contract Specialist, Office of Acquisition Management, reachable via nhtsaoam@dot.gov, with questions due no later than 5:00 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time on Monday, April 19, 2010 to allow time for responses. The opportunity was posted on April 6, 2010, closed May 17, 2010, and later archived on June 16, 2010.
