INTERAGENCY AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE
Washington Traffic Safety Commission
AND
Kent Police Department
THIS AGREEMENT is made and entered into by and between the Washington Traffic Safety Commission,
hereinafter referred to as "WTSC," and Kent Police Department, hereinafter referred to as "SUB-
RECIPIENT."
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms, conditions, covenants, and performance contained
herein, or attached and incorporated and made a part hereof, the Parties mutually agree as follows:
1. PURPOSE OF THE AGREEMENT
The purpose of this Agreement is to provide funding, provided by the United States Department of
Transportation (USDOT) National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and allowed under the
Assistance Listings Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) numbers 20.600 and 20.616, for traffic
safety grant project 2020-HVE-3861-Kent Police Department, specifically to provide funding for the SUB-
RECIPIENT to conduct overtime high-visibility enforcement(HVE)traffic safety emphasis patrols as
outlined in the Statement of Work (SOW), in support of Target Zero priorities. The Target Zero Manager
(TZM) and/or the Law Enforcement Liaison (LEL) shall coordinate the SOW with the SUB-RECIPIENT
with the goal of reducing traffic-related deaths and serious injuries.
2. PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE
The period of performance of this Agreement shall commence upon the date of execution by both Parties,
but not earlier than October 1, 2019, and remain in effect until September 30, 2020, unless terminated
sooner, as provided herein.
3. STATEMENT OF WORK
Note: This statement of work applies only to HVE emphasis areas for which your agency has received HVE
funding.
GOAL: To reduce traffic related deaths and serious injuries through education of impaired driving, occupant
protection, speeding and distracted driving multijurisdictional HVE patrols throughout the state.
SCOPE OF WORK: High Visibility Enforcement (HVE) is a proven strategy to reduce vehicular fatalities in
serious injuries. There are 8 main components in the best practice model:
1. The event is planned by a local team.
2. The event is data driven. Interest in the event originates by local recognition of a problem and the
community's interest in responding to it.
3. The enforcement is multijurisdictional and uses a saturation approach and participating officers make a
large number of contacts during the event and issue infractions or citations to change public behavior
around risky driving behaviors such as speeding, distracted driving and failing to use a seat belt. The
WTSC proposes that the default law enforcement response to a high risk driving behavior during an
HVE event should be a citation/infraction
4. The public is aware of the event before, during, and after the enforcement takes place. It's important to
note that these messages must reach all target audiences, regardless of English proficiency, in the
community who use the transportation system.
5. Local media are engaged by the HVE planning team.
6. Enforcement is highly visible—clearly more than a typical day.
7. The HVE event is evaluated.
8. The HVE event is supported by deployment of resources in the priority areas throughout the year when
HVE is not being implemented.
The SUB-RECIPIENT, along with the regional traffic safety task force, TZM, and LEL, are responsible for
meeting these elements of HVE. The WTSC will conduct public education campaigns during national
campaigns, but it is the responsibility of the SUB-RECIPIENT and task force to ensure that all elements of
HVE are being met. The statewide high visibility enforcement patrols are paired with media participation to
engage, deter, and educate drivers about the impacts of making unsafe decisions when driving. Outreach
efforts are supported by the WTSC during statewide HVE campaigns. Regional TZMs also support public
outreach efforts during locally planned HVE events. Below are descriptions of the Scope of Work for each
funding category. The WTSC accepts requests for modifications to the Scope of Work through the regional
Target Zero Manager.
This grant provides funding for HVE enforcement in a variety of emphasis areas: impaired driving,
distracted driving, seat belt use, flex patrols, and motorcycle safety patrols .
Dispatch:
WTSC will reimburse communications officers/dispatch personnel for work on this project providing
Agency has received prior approval from the designated TZM. This activity must be overtime and only the
expenses listed in section 3.2 and its subsections will be reimbursed.
Enforcement Standard:
WTSC proposes that during enforcement, the default response of officers observing driving behaviors that
nnntrihntP to cPrinim ininry anrd fatal r-nllicinnc iQ t1l'. icomie— of o n4 +; - — 11PTQ(1
the need and value of officer discretion. While WTSC does not suggest mandatory enforcement on every
contact, the goal of any enforcement activity is behavior modification.
HVE Enforcement Plan Requirement:
A HVE Mobilization Plan is required prior to all HVE activity. The local traffic safety task force and TZM
are responsible for submitting this form to the WTSC HVE Program Manager prior to enforcement activities
begin. This form serves as prior approval for HVE events and includes the following information:
• Problem statement
• Description of enforcement strategy, including expected law enforcement agencies participating in the
event, target violation, and target locations
• Public outreach strategy, to include how the multiple cultural groups in a community will be reached
with these messages
• Evaluation plan
Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST) Training Requirement:
The SUB-RECIPIENT certifies that all officers participating in these patrols are SFST trained and meet the
following requirements:
• Officer must be BAC certified and have passed the SFST refresher training within the prior three
years, or
• Officer must have successfully completed Advanced Roadside Impaired Driving Enforcement
(ARIDE), or
• Officer must be a certified Drug Recognition Expert.
• For impaired driving HVE mobilizations, there is one additional requirement: Officers must
have made a DUI/DWI arrest within the past twelve months
Media Contacts:
All of these patrols are conducted as part of a highly publicized, educational effort. Publicity campaigns
about these patrols are planned to alert the public to the fact that extra patrols are targeting these violations.
The WTSC requests that the SUB-RECIPIENT posts traffic safety information to their web-based platforms
during statewide and locally coordinated HVE mobilizations. At least one individual from the SUB-
RECIPIENT must be available for weekend media contacts, beginning at noon on Fridays before
mobilizations. The Following sections in the SOW are for specific enforcement emphasis areas:
Impaired Driving Enforcement:
Impaired driving (also referred to as Driving Under the Influence, or DUI) remains a top priority for the
WTSC. Year after year, roughly 50 percent of WA's vehicular fatalities are due to impaired driving. HVE
has been shown to reduce impaired driving fatalities when the model is followed. Overtime Impaired driving
enforcement patrols must be planned and coordinated by the regional traffic safety taskforce, including the
TZM and LEL. The DUI patrols shall be deployed at locations where the data indicates that the most traffic
safety benefit can be realized as determined by the local Traffic Safety Task Force. Except when prior
approval is provided, impaired driving HVE must begin after 8:00 p.m and will occur Thursday-Sunday. The
WTSC requires that impaired driving HVE patrols are done using multijurisdictional collaboration. The
priority for this funding is participation in the national campaigns:
The priority for this funding is participation in the national camnaigns:
• Holiday DUI Patrols—December I 1 —January 2
• Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over—August 19—September 7
The DUI patrols shall be deployed at locations where the data indicates that the most traffic safety benefit
can be realized as determined by the local Traffic Safety Task Force. Except when prior approval is
provided, impaired driving HVE must begin after 6:00 p.m. and will occur Thursday-Sunday.
Funding in this category can be expended outside of the campaign periods. However, the funds must only be
used for impaired driving enforcement and during another national impaired driving enforcement campaign
or other large local event. Participation during Holiday DUI Patrols and Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over
should be prioritized when scheduling enforcement dates.
The WTSC encourages law enforcement agencies to use this funding to support the professional growth of
officers with limited exposure to impaired driving enforcement. With the approval of the region's TZM and
WTSC, officers can participate in mentoring for impaired driving enforcement. Requirements for this use of
funds include the following:
• WTSC approval for impaired driving mentorship is done through the HVE Mobilization Plan.
Approval for mentorship must be received prior to the activity date.
• The training officer must be a Drug Recognition Expert or ARIDE trained.
• TZ_.Ms can submit a request for an officer who doesn't meet these requirements to be a mentor. This
request must be detailed on the HVE Mobilization Plan.
• There must be a review of the SFST procedure prior to the enforcement activity.
• There is a limit of two times per year that an officer can be a mentee.
• Funds permitting, mentees will participate in at least one impaired driving mobilization after
completing mentoring.
• Each region or county-level task force can set additional requirements for participation in this use of
funding.
• To be eligible for this activity, the task force must have a policy for DUI Mentoring.
• Funding will pay for overtime for the mentor officer and the mentee officer.
This funding can be used to conduct premise checks in bars and other establishments that sell alcohol. To be
used for this purpose, the activity must meet the following requirements:
• Approval for this activity is done through the HVE,Mobilization Plan. This plan must be received prior
to the activity date. It should include details such as the estimated number of hours and officers who
will be participating in this activity. It should also include a plan for what officers will discuss with the
premise (Ex. distributing coasters, HVE dedication materials, mobilization creative, etc.)
• Each establishment is counted as one contact on the Officer Activity Log.
• The WA Liquor and Cannabis Board must be notified in advance of this activity to encourage
collaboration and support.
These funds can be used for DUI warrant round-up events. Prior approval is needed for these activities and
must include evidence of thorough planning.
Distracted Driving Enforcement:
With the State of Washington's distracted driving law, these patrols will be important to ensure through
education and enforcement that drivers understand and are following the new law. These patrols shall be
deployed at locations where the data indicates that the most traffic safety benefit can be realized as
determined by the local "Traffic Safety Task Force. Wherever possible these patrols shall occur in areas with
the highest number of past distracted driving violations. The WTSC requires that distracted driving HVE
patrols are conducted using a team approach with designated spotters. This approach has shown to best
identify distracted driving violations. Minimum teams of three can conduct distracted driving HVE patrols —
one spotter and at least two officers responding to violations.
In order to be eligible to receive distracted driving HVE funds in FFY2020, the SUB-RECIPIENT must have
at least one citation issued during the FFY2019 On the Road Off the Phone campaign. Agencies that did not
participate in the FFY2019 On the Road Off the Phone campaign are eligible for funding.
The priority for this funding is participation in the national campaign, On the Road Off the Phone, April 1 -
18, 2020. However, this funding can be expended outside of the national campaign, but the funds must only
be used for distracted driving enforcement.
Seat Belt Use Enforcement:
Washington has one of the highest seat belt use rates in the country, yet many of the state's vehicular
fatalities and serious injuries involved unbelted drivers and passengers. Funding for seat belt enforcement
will be prioritized using data from WTSC's Research and Data Division, such as seat belt use rates and fatal
and serious injury data.
At this point, funding distribution has yet to be determined.
Motorcycle Safety Patrols
The SUBRECIPIENT will engage in multijurisdictional HVE patrols, as part of the national effort, for all or
part of the following campaign:
• It's a Fine Line—July 10— 26
These motorcycle safety patrols shall be deployed at locations where the data indicates that the most traffic
safety benefit can be realized as determined by the local Traffic Safety Task Force. Patrols must take place
Friday, Saturday, or Sunday during the It's a Fine Line campaign.
Patrols should focus on the illegal and unsafe driving actions of motorcycles that are known to cause serious
and fatal crashes. This includes impaired driving, speeding, and following too closely.
Patrols should also focus on the illegal and unsafe driving actions of all other motor vehicles when relating to
motorcycles. This includes speeding, failure to yield to a motorcycle, following too closely to a motorcycle,
distracted driving, etc.
Whenever possible, SUB-RECIPIENT should include motorcycle officers in these patrols.
