for traffic safety grant project 2019-HVE-3534-Kent Police Department, in support of 2019-AG
2748 King County Distracted Driving Campaign, 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, 2018, and remain in effect until September 30, 2019,
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
page 1 of 13
throughout the state.
SCOPE OF WORK: 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 written
requests for moderations to the Scope of Work through the regional Target Zero Manager.
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
• Evaluation plan
Law enforcement officers will complete an Emphasis Patrol Activity Log within 48 hours of the
completion of the patrols.
Statewide Distracted Driving Enforcement:
The agency will engage in HVE patrols for all or part of the following campaign:
• First round of enforcement - 05.03.2019
• Second round of enforcement- 07.31,2019
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 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.
Up to 40 percent of funding in this category can be expended outside of the campaign periods.
However, the funds must only be used for distracted driving enforcement.
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
page 2 of 13
mobilizations. At least one individual must be available for weekend media contacts,
beginning at noon on Fridays before mobilizations.
