Wilson, Chief of Police � SUBJECT: Memorandum of Agreement with the Department of Homeland Security. Background The Department of Homeland Security's, (DHS), Western Command office is located within the City of Federa.l Way. This federal agency has a large mobile command velucle, (MC�, which can be used for local and regional emergency operations. DHS contacted the Federal Way Police Department requesting pernussion to have access to certain Federal Way Police 800 MHz radio frequency talk-groups, for installation in their mobile command vehicle, (MCV). We have established a solid working relationship with this agency and have been offered access to their MCV, upon request. Allowing DHS access to certain police radio frequencies will enhance interoperability and provide direct communication capabilities for emergency and mutual aid scenarios. Access to our police radio frequencies will allow DHS agents and officers to talk directly to our first responders in an emergency situation, and could also provide a benefit for us in the event we borrow their MCV. Staff proposes that we enter into the Memorandum of Agreement, as proposed, providing DHS permission to use selected police radio frequencies for limited emergency and mutual aid situations. There are no costs associated with entering into this Agreement with DHS and no special FCC licensing requirements.
