Acting Assistant Attorney General
Office for Civil Rights Notice for All Recipients
Office for Civil Rights (OCR), Office of Justice Programs (OJP), U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) enforces federal
rights laws and other provisions that prohibit discrimination by recipients of federal financial assistance from OJP,
Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS), and the Office on Violence Against Women (OVW).
Several civil rights laws, including Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of
1973, require recipients of federal financial assistance (recipients) to give assurances that they will comply with those
laws. Taken together, these and other civil rights laws prohibit recipients from discriminating in the provision of
services and employment because of race, color, national origin, religion, disability, and sex or from discriminating in
the provision of services on the bases of age.
Some recipients of DOJ financial assistance have additional obligations to comply with other applicable
nondiscrimination provisions like the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968, which prohibits
discrimination on the basis of religion in addition to race, color, national origin, and sex. Recipients may also have
related requirements regarding the development and implementation of equal employment opportunity programs.
1.5 25-00112 Tukwila FY24 JAG MOU Contract Page 10 of 32
OCR provides technical assistance, training, and other resources to help recipients comply with civil rights obligations.
Further, OCR administratively enforces civil rights laws and nondiscrimination provisions by investigating DOJ
recipients that are the subject of discrimination complaints. In addition, OCR conducts compliance reviews of DOJ
recipients based on regulatory criteria. These investigations and compliance reviews permit OCR to evaluate whether
DOJ recipients are providing services to the public and engaging in employment practices in a nondiscriminatory
manner.

"Guidance to Federal Financial Assistance Recipients Regarding Title VI Prohibition Against National Origin
Discrimination Affecting Limited English Proficient Persons" (67 Fed. Reg. 41455-41472) (https://

Should a question arise as to whether a particular use of federal funds by a recipient (or a subrecipient) would or might

Attachment B
Jurisdiction: City of Tukwila
Project Name: Evidence Collection Technology & Tools
Project Cost: $12,948.00
Description of the Issue:
As our lives become more intertwined with ever -advancing connected technology, the
preservation and analysis of evidence of crimes embedded within these devices becomes a
dominant feature of convicting guilty parties and exonerating innocent ones. A key
challenge is the preservation of the evidence while a crime is being investigated and a
warrant approved and executed before the evidence can be accessed and analyzed.
The Tukwila Police Department's Major Crimes unit prides itself on providing an unbiased
and fact -based testimony for each of the crimes it investigates. The foundation of this
process is the team's ability to collect and analyze the evidence presented by a crime,
including the evidence contained within portable/connected electronic devices.
The Major Crimes Unit already has one such device, a Mission Darkness Blocker Locker 7.
It is used to securely store cell phones and other electronic devices which are waiting on
the completion of search warrants and physical analysis utilizing Cellebrite. Our capacity
in the existing Locker has been exceeded and an additional Locker is needed urgently. The
Unit is currently storing connected devices in makeshift (but still secured) areas as
approved by our Evidence Technicians.
The Mission Darkness Locker Blocker 7 includes locker, seven powered faraday storage
bags, and the ancillary cables necessary for operation/storage. The Locker will be
purchased as soon as funding is released.
Also needed by our Major Crimes Unit is lighting for crime scenes. Our team is frequently
called upon to process crime scenes either during hours of darkness or in spaces with
insufficient lighting. A portable, self -powered, quiet, and powerful lighting solution is
needed. The Pelican 9460 Remote Area Light is perfect for this application. When not in
use, the entire device is contained within a hard Pelican case, protecting the device and
insuring it against damage that could shorten its useful life. When deployed, the 9460 can
run on its own internal battery system or be plugged into a wall outlet if available. Its two
lighting heads provide a flood of light and is able to be directed 360 degrees to illuminate
an entire area. The unit is requesting two of these devices and is ready to purchase them as
soon as funding is available.
The Locker Blocker is expected to cost $5,784.40 (including taxes and shipping costs) while
the two Pelican 9460 units are expected to cost a combined $6,613.09 (including taxes and
shipping costs). The Locker Blocker and the Pelican lights together are expected to cost
$12,397.49; leaving $551 in grant funds unspent. The Tukwila Police Department would
1.5 25-00112 Tukwila FY24 JAG MOU Contract Page 31 of 32
like permission to use these remaining funds to purchase two Glock 47 firearms to replace
significantly worn units currently in use by members of our Patrol unit. Any funds
expended over the JAG FY24 allotment will be absorbed by the Tukwila Police Department.
Note that these two firearms are above what TPD has budgeted for purchase in 2025.
Project Design and Implementation:
Community Stakeholder Involvement
The City of Tukwila urges its community members to discuss and involve themselves in
many aspects of its governance and use of funds. We hold budget townhalls and make
available budget prioritization tools to gauge public support and to inform them on our
decision-making processes. We invite community members to participate on several
boards and commissions as part of our Council process. The Police Department invites the
community to participate in several committees and offer their input on several topics,
including: hiring, use of force incidents, a Community Advisory Committee, and others.
Capabilities and Competencies:
Tukwila works closely with neighboring agencies, both in training and in actual call -
handling. We frequently lean upon our neighbor agencies for the use of their tools and
resources and they do the same for ours.
Plan for Collecting the Data Required for this Solicitation's Performance Measures:
The data collection for each of these purchases will be simple and straight -forward. The
purchase of the Locker Blocker and the Pelican lights will be made with the grant
administrator's procurement card and the firearms will be purchased with the
Quartermaster's procurement card. All transactions will be provided to the grant
administrator for reconciliation and recording and all invoices/receipts and appropriate
financial documentation will be provided to the JAG grant authorities.

II. Background and Purpose
Proposed to streamline justice funding and grant administration, the Edward Byrne
Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program allows states, tribes, and local
governments to support a broad range of activities to prevent and control crime based on
their own local needs and conditions. JAG blends previous Byrne Formula and Local
Law Enforcement Block Grant (LLEBG) Programs to provide agencies with the
flexibility to prioritize and place justice funds where they are most needed.
III.Disparate Certification
Jurisdictions certified as disparate must submit a joint application for the aggregate of
funds allocated to them, specifying the amount of funds that are to be distributed to each
of the units of local government and the purposes for which the funds will be used, and
indicating who will serve as the applicant/fiscal agent for the joint funds. The above
jurisdictions are certified as disparate.
IV. Fiscal Agent and Fund Allocation
The City of Seattle will act as the applicant and will serve as the fiscal agent for the joint
funds. The City of Seattle will charge a 3.7% administrative fee for these services.
