These federal funds are provided to each state in the form of a formula grant based upon the number of Type 1 Crimes found within the five partnered agencies associated with the crime lab. The lab has utilized this grant for the past several years to train and certify the analysts. The grant does not require matching funds. Having examined the needs of the lab and areas where training is needed most, I have identified training opportunities and am requesting funding. Three courses related to DME (Digital Media Evidence) for staff involved in processing cell phones, and audio/video related evidence. These trainings expand our capabilities within the DME section and will assist with our backlog. The remaining funds will be used for a leadership training specific to crime labs, and training examiners associated with firearms, DNA, and Latent Prints. I have attached part of the grant form which is due to be submitted by April 12th, 2024. What options exist for the Board? Consequences: Failure to approve this grant will cause an increase in funding request from the county and partnered agencies to offset the need for training. Impacts: The grant funding helps training analysts and maintain their certifications. Ultimately the grant funding helps expand the knowledge and skills of the analysts and helps in the reduction in the backlog. Costs (Current Fiscal Year / Ongoing or Subsequent Fiscal Years): There are no additional costs to the county associated with this grant request. Recommendation: I recommend approving applying for the grant. 2024-0762 L173 So 0U0- Support Recommendation Schedule Place on BOCC Agenda Work Session Other/Comments: Perry L.

that developed this plan and the years the plan covers. (Provide the signed certification on the Documents tab) The Northern Region Lab Group (NRLG) and CBI signed a MOU in 2013. This group of 5 agencies have determined to use the CBI quality system and its related laboratory policies and procedures to operate as a forensic laboratory. 34. GENERALLY ACCEPTED LABORATORY PRACTICES AND PROCEDURES - Describe how the applicant agency complies with the certification. Provide the name of the certifying accreditation organization being used. See instructions for further information. (Provide the signed certification on the Documents tab) ANAB is the current accrediting body. The NCRFL works with CBI in providing forensic laboratory services to the region. It has placed itself under the CBI's quality system and therefore operates under all the CBI Forensic Science Services policies and procedures as set up by the Colorado Bureau of Investigation. The policies and procedures have been reviewed by the accrediting body and the laboratory undergoes an annual review to assure compliance. We perform monthly and annual audits, review all work and reports for technical competence and accuracy. All analysts undergo proficiency testing annually as required by policy. New analyst's complete competency testing prior to being released to conduct examinations. 35. EXTERNAL INVESTIGATIONS - Provide a detailed explanation of the process for ensuring an independent external investigation would be conducted in the event that an allegation of serious negligence or misconduct substantially affecting the integrity of forensic results is committed by employees or contractors. See instructions for further information. (Provide the signed certification on the Documents tab) 1. The CBI quality system has a process in place to review instances that may affect the quality of the laboratory system. This process is defined in tie Quality Manual of the CBI laboratory system. Anyone in the system can report on an incident of quality concern in the form of a cuality incident review (QIR). 2. All QIRs are eventually provided to the lab director for review before being given to the Quality Manager. Many of these QIRs are resolved at the level o- the technical leader or lab manager. All others continue though the review process and in some instances the lab director determines tre corrective actions that may need to be taken. That recommendation is then reviewed by the Quality Manager. 3. If on review the lab director determines that the QIR indicates an allegation of serious neglect or misconduct then, in addition to the paper workflow of :he QIR, a call to the Quality Manager would occur. 4. The lab director would contact the Quality Manager of the CBI to determine the level of concern. 5. If it was of a serious nature and required an independent investigation then the lab director would contact the Weld County Sheriffs Office, Internal Affairs Unit to make them aware of the allegation and request their services to provide an independent review of the allegation. 6. Due to the unique nature of the regional lab (6 agencies provided staff in the lab) the agency whose employee was involved in the alleged action would be notified. They would be appraised of the situation and informed that an independent review would be done. 7. The lab director would review the results of the independent review and in concert with the CBI quality manager create a plan to follow through with the recommendation of the Weld County Sheriffs Office Internal Affairs Unit. 36.
